It turns out my new life isn’t so different from my old life. Not surprising, considering I only moved “next door”. “Next door” being a couple of miles away with only grass, trees, hills and creeks in between. Still cattle and horses and “ranchey” stuff that I love. But it’s more than that. I’m […]

We finished all that moving last week. And I hurt. Physical pain is a welcome relief. It can be fixed with a couple Aleve and day’s rest. Life goes on. I’m actually quite pleased with myself. I’m stronger than I thought I was. I do wonder , though. What’s my new normal going to look […]

I’ve been spending a lot of time in the past few weeks contemplating how I was going to get my things moved out of the McMansion with no help in sight. You see, my stuff is on the 3rd floor and there are no stairs. No stairs inside or outside. No sign of any coming […]

Little white dogs and ponies are not cut out for blizzards. We got smacked with two “record-breaking” (for Kansas) snow storms in one 5 day period. It was called the “Blizzard of Oz 2013”. For three of those days I was unable to get to the ranch to check on my horses. I thought I […]

Not Really. She’s too small. But I think I’ll take pictures of her and add a song and make a video to that effect. I think I’ll spend untold hours amusing myself with this when I should be doing something productive. Like my taxes. Love, Cowgirl Red aka Pony Girl
