I NEED TO SLOW DOWN.............

First off, I've missed you guys! Last week was crazy with school's fundraiser in the mornings, trimming goats for the show, Livestock Show Friday and Saturday and helping with a event at church on Sunday. I thought this morning I'll catch up and post pics and things. Well wrong! Go out to feed this morning and "Roo" is laying down, odd since he hardly ever lays down. He didn't eat and as soon as I turned him out he layed down. Damn, he is either colicing, tied up or impacted. Catch him, tie him up. Run to the house, wake up child, hook up truck and trailer and head to the vet~did all that in record time! He had a slight impaction, thankfully we caught it early, he oiled him and gave him some meds. We got back home late this morning and have been horse watching all day. About 3 we had our first small poop! I've never been so glad to see poop I tell ya! I can already tell he is feeling better, he will stay up tonight with only hay and water. And he said we could start him back on feed tomorrow! Thank goodness! I know I'm drained! I promise I'm going to post and pop in and visit! Hopefully tomorrow!

"ANGEL" UPDATE

She came through surgery great and is recovering in her stall. Said she probably would have alittle swelling. Will be able to pick her up in the morning and they will give me her discharge instructions. I'm so glad it is over and she did well. I love our vet and his whole staff, they truly understand and care for the animals. Thanks to you all for your kind words and prayers! I'll keep you posted on her recovery. I'm now going to lay down and take care of myself! I went to the doctor this morning and I have a ear infection! So she started me on antibiotics and ear drops.
