OUCH !!! Well here I am again, under house arrest and too cautious to upset the “back police”. DOH !!! . WE did get the results of the MRI screening yesterday and it doesn’t make pretty reading…it would probably be even worse if I could understand it. Smile. I get to see the surgeon tomorrow, I guess that is when I have it translated from “doctor speak” into “dumb blonde” speak and I find out if or what they are going to do to turn me into the Bionic Woman. We are very fortunate to have Mom Sikora back here as the most senior unpaid ranch hand / ranch cook in the world. Mom S sees no problem as insurmountable and it is all we can do to restrain her and remind her that she actually is the wrong side of 90 !! Off she went this morning, just as the cuckoo clock cuckood 7.30am, big smile on her face and egg baskets in hand, off down to the barn. Typhoon Ursula held the fort yesterday whilst we were out putting a name to all my moaning, there she was, plastic bag protecting her head, braving each and every shower…DOWNPOUR and still smiling!!!
I’m sure that Lamb chop got many more carrots than he needed and Macho, ( our very smelly buck in the rut ) got all the hugs no one else is prepared to give him ‘till he stops peeing on himself !. For some strange reason Ursula has a special affinity to big boy Macho and we know he will miss her special attention when her time here comes to an end. We all will, Ursula is unique, you don’t need to tell her to start work (she already is working !) and trying to get our little tornado to take a break is impossible. If anyone out there has a parent, friend or neighbour who needs a live in “carer” Tornado Ursula is your woman !
Well, I’ve been reminded by my butt that I have been sitting for too long, I guess it’s time I took a stagger down the “yellow brick road” to my bed !
PS…..Just got a quick news flash from the barn, Gertie the Canadian Goose that has a crush on Quest the Shire gelding is back and honking impatiently for the arrival of her enormous beau. Hopefully we will have some photos tomorrow. Take care, keep safe, M
