Hmmmm, I've been tossed back into the realm of horse selling recently it seems. Selling a horse is hard to me because I love said horse. It isn't like a car or a sofa... I don't "love" my cars nor sofas. My plan is to be Sure to find the perfect new owner for this horse as she's a class act and doesn't deserve being treated as a " well, she's old so she won't be so full of herself" kind of people.
Wish me luck in finding perfection for my horse- If I don't, here she'll remain. I would give her away to the right person if I couldn't find the right person to buy her. ( have I mentioned how much I don't like horse selling ? sheeesh)
Lately I've been advertising a lot of my draft sized equipment and it has been selling slowly. There have been bits/ halters, etc. among others- and mostly All have gone way beneath market prices but I would rather someone else enjoy them than have them sit here. So far I have sold all of my harness- show and at home stuff, the carts, and equipment that goes w/ it..... halters, bridles, and some bits too. I've still got two sets of team/ pair lines and blankets- but those I am not 'giving away' those.
I am keeping my English saddle so far, unless someone 'gets real' about it's worth. Everyone wants to buy cheap but even though I may never use said items again, they will remain w/ me for ever, if need be.
I've been making room for horses here who don't play well w/ others, and those who are new here and those who are ancient and need to be in stalls at night. Omgosh- it's like a Chinese Fire Drill! Lately I am to the point where I have to put the horses needs first and humans wants secondly. I just want a peaceful farm once again. So- tomorrow, some changes are being made... stay tuned, I'll let you know how they went. ;)
Also- I've decided to sell some chickens. Since the last murder session. they have been all living in stalls in the main barn. I love my hens, and am so scared any more that something will attack / kill them, there are no chances taken any more. This really shortens their time outside in the sun. Even the hens's yard isn't safe enough as some critter got into their house and killed all those inside. So- perhaps if I cut back on the hens here, then they will be able to be outside and run fast enough IF something comes to kill them. At least I hope so- hmmmmmmmm, maybe skates ??? How about a scooter for them ? Hmmmmmmm........
November has dragged wintery type weather along with her. Cold but not TOO cold, damp and yep, we even had a bit of snow. If you can call it a snow.
It actually snowed and happily, it didn't last long. :) My favorite kind of snow... I know more is coming, but please, not til Christmas ?
Tomorrow, the plan is to get the short black pony hitched and to go for a drive... She won't care much for it, but I need it.
Have a great evening, all !
