Gretchen Laws is clean and dry
Blackberry Farm is almost done being washed, last two are in the washer now
Stacy Adair is next
Buckskin Acres is after that

Scots Ridge is finished and invoices went out last night

Basically all the big farms are done, only individuals are left, they should go fast after I fight my way through the Blackberry repairs.

Hey guys! I am back and trying to get back on track. I have all my horse show stuff unloaded and put away, I am just handling a few other errands and an appt or two and I will be working away, sunup to sundown!

If anyone knows a good place to get antique wicker repaired please message me 🥸 I will also probably be in search of an Amish/ Mennonite carriage builder to assist with some wheels that are beyond my ability as well... stay tuned for more on that! 😇

Hi friends!

I would not ordinarily do this but I have two kittens that need a special place to land. They came to the rescue I work with in a traumatized litter of 5 and the two of them just seem to be less interested in people than the other three. Don't get me wrong, they enjoy a good pet, just when they choose it, not necessarily when you choose to give it. As you can imagine the average family with 2.5 kids is not going to tolerate house ferals for indefinite period of time, so I am looking for a special barn to place them in as I have spent the last three months trying to let them know that people are pretty great all the time.

They are neutered, up to date with FVRCP (3 total) and have had Rabies, and microchipped; ready to go until next summer!
I am happy to tell you more about them if you have a nice feed room or tack room where they could hang out for a few weeks and need some handsome dudes added to your entourage.

Hey guys! I know every one struggles to find storage options for blankets to keep them dry, dust and bug free. Well, this could be an option. I was digging around Amazon looking for bale bags and alternatives for those, it's not big enough for a whole bale, but it could easily accommodate half a bale.
It's made of a plastic like tarp fabric with four handles, a window to see what's inside and a label pocket. Comes in a few colors and different size multipacks. I was able to put a size 80 sheet, medium and heavy w/hood in one and zip it completely. Picture in comments

Good Monday morning to ya! It is the middle of August 🤯gulp! Its fine, I'm fine, everything is fine. Seriously. I will probably stop work around midday on the 30th to try to get packed for my trip to Tulsa, because if I don't have a co-pilot I will be following Ricky like a little caboose again, whether I need to be there on September 2nd or not. I am not about a 13 hour drive 100% alone like that, thanks.🐴🛻

If you have already been billed you may have noticed that also attached to your invoice email was a document called "Get ready for pickup" you may or may not think this applies to you, I can assure you it applies to everyone, but I attached it for a couple of reasons and none of them are personal toward anyone in particular, really, well kinda, but everyone is getting it, so not really.🥸
1. the QR code for the electronic inventory is on that doc and I paid a lot of money for that thing, so let s use it, it is so easy to read!

2. Some people are still confused that they need to label their own stuff and how that needs to be done. So now it is in writing to refer to, in your possession.

3. no bags. no bindings I AM ALLERGIC to all kinds of mold, horses and pollen(among other things). I picked up some blankets that had been tied up in cute little bundles this spring that had already started to mold and I was sick for days, like I felt like I almost had pneumonia. Please, please, please don't do this to me.🤧🫶(BTW I am taking immunotherapy shots, two otc allergy pills and nasal spray and still was sick!)

I am really trying to get everyone who might be impacted by my absence September 2-14 done before I leave. If you are bringing stuff now, please know that I will do it if I can, but it probably won't be done before the end of September, maybe even a week or so into October. I don't think the weather is going to cut out that quick anyway, but we never know here in this beautiful valley! 🍂🍁

happy 4th of July!

i know it seems like not much has been happening, but I really have been slaving away!

you see, when I came up with this plan to reduce empty trips up or down I81, I made a strict schedule for those farms, with a two week turn around so I could get them and get them done. Which means, for those who are closer to home, you kind of get pushed off except when there is time and space to fit yours in around theirs, which there usually is. at least to get washed anyway...

Anyhoo... those are done, basically, for the season and I am done disappearing to horse shows too, until September; so I will be back to faithfully cranking out farms left and right like I was in April and May.

there was a miscommunication at Scots Ridge, so I will be stuffing my van chock full sometime next week while also returning a portion of mediums and heavies there.

Cedar Valley and anyone who dropped off there is almost done washing and inspection/repairs will commence today.

Tierney Willoughby, Karen MCGowan, Jennifer Bailey, Teresa Sears and Castle HIll are next if memory serves

Please never hesitate to message me if you need your things back by a specific date or think it is taking too long, whatever. I believe I have improved the process a lot in the last couple of years, but there is always room for improvement!

Let's jump on outa here and get to work!
