Urgent Notice: New disease discovered & transmitted via horse hair called “Amobacter Equuii..."
"The majority of the infected are generally female, although occasionally a male will become infected. Please put this on your status if you know, or are related to someone who suffers from this disease. Symptoms include, but are not limited to; Reluctance to cook, clean or do housework; Reluctance to wear make-up, good clothes or high heels; Reluctance to spend money on home or car repairs until after "my baby has new shoes, pad, blanket, tack, grain, hay & supplements.
Amobacter Equuii usually results in long hours away from home and exhaustion which may lead to a loss of physical contact with other humans (especially husbands). Amobacter Equuii is thought to be addictive, resulting in the compulsive need to be around even more Horse hair - the very thing that has infected you. This compulsion may lead to a "herd mentality" or, like the potato chip commercial, "you can't have just one". Beware! If you come in contact with a female human infected by this substance, be prepared to talk about horses for hours.
I came across NorCal Equine Rescue (NER) on facebook. They are doing great things with rescued horses. The even adopt them out after they recover. The get horses at auction or take in horses that are no longer wanted. Please check them out.
NER has partnered with Rosie's Remedies to provide money for more rescues. Just for providing a link to their website, Rosie's Remedies will donate $20.00 to NER. This is a great thing. If you have a website or blog, go here to get the code for a link to Rosie's Remedies then email NER for verification.
When Scott got home from youth vespers tonight, Bosco was barking at something on the ground. We went out and looked to see what it was. And low-and-behold, it was a bull frog!
Night Visitor
He looked to be about 12 inches long from nose to toes. He was over 420 feet from the pond. He must have had quite a trip. We took him back to the pond, after taking some pictures, and let him run ... hop ... free!
On some nights, we can hear the frogs croaking away. We hear several large bull frogs sometimes. It is music to our ears! Some people may say that it is too quiet in the country, but that is the best way to live. We hear the barn owls and the coyotes sometimes also. It is melodious!
