Abby being kind of a hay bully and not letting others have any....
We did go out and move hay around so Daisy and Danica could get hay as well.

Today has been interesting! Sat down to do my devotions this morning and saw that 2 of the horses in the main herd were being kept away from the rest. In this cold, that situation had to be fixed! So out I went. Calling to them, had them almost to the gate and one of the other mares ran them off again. Locked the main group up and out to the pasture I went, calling for them they came in. They followed me to another pen with hay and water and ran in gladly. For some reason, the story of the shepherd leaving the 99 to find the 1 kept playing in my mind. I am so blessed and grateful for the love God shows. And so grateful for the opportunity to help the horses and have it work out. Tonight I believe Mr Appy and Beauty are grateful as well.

Reading books daily brings many benefits, improving both intellectually and emotionally. Here are 10 reasons why you should read books every day:
1. Expand your knowledge: Reading exposes you to new information and deepens your understanding of various topics such as culture, history, science, art, and everyday life.
2. Enhance critical thinking and analysis: Regular reading improves your ability to reason, analyze, and solve problems logically and creatively.
3. Improve writing and communication skills: Exposure to a wide range of vocabulary and sentence structures helps you refine your expression and writing abilities.
4. Reduce stress and anxiety: Reading helps reduce stress by transporting you into different worlds, allowing your mind to relax and unwind.
5. Develop focus and patience: Reading requires concentration and patience to follow complex narratives or concepts, improving these skills over time.
6. Boost imagination and creativity: Reading, especially fiction, stimulates your imagination and enhances creativity by helping you visualize scenes, characters, and scenarios.
7. Improve memory: Reading encourages you to remember details about characters, plots, and information, which strengthens your memory retention.
8. Develop critical thinking: Many books, particularly those on science, philosophy, or politics, challenge you to think deeply and develop your critical reasoning abilities.
9. Inspire and motivate: Self-help books, biographies of successful individuals, or inspiring stories can provide motivation and guidance for your own life.
10. Increase empathy and social skills: Reading about other people’s lives and emotions helps you understand and empathize with them, which enhances your ability to connect with others socially.
Reading daily is a positive habit that benefits your mental health and fosters personal growth.

From Cowboy Quotes:

Sonny is not happy that he has been caught and is getting worked with...Vern is not pleased with his new roommate.

Yes he will, God provides and I believe that. Every day I pray for His guidance and give these hard situations over to Him.

This spoke to me because my devotions this morning were about the gift of today.

Gratitude is the only thing I can feel right now. Gratitude to God and how He provides! He has sent us a quality of volunteers that even short staffed today was an overwhelming success! When the crew is small, they are mighty! And thank you John for traveling to come help as well! Kristi and Kendra you are both amazing! And Josiah House as usual you were patient and kind with the horses.
We not only got trims done, we moved some horses around and some clean up done.

Today is farrier day. The flu has taken down several of my amazing crew. Anyone that can come help today thank you in advance!
