The Little Animal Things

Still a busy busy week at work and home. Luckily, being occupied with work keeps me from other thoughts. Even better, I’ve got all these animals to keep my “free” time not very free.

Bring us fresh water! More mealworms!

I love going out on breaks to care for the hens and check on the horses. Dusty always sticks his head in my hands for love.

Pet my head.

And working to keep Apache feeling good and getting Drew back into work is a great distraction. Droodles is getting lots of reminders that crazy canter is not his goal. But he’s awfully good walking on Lee’s new trails.

Ready to go, Suna.

And then the dogs. Even when I’m feeling the jitters over things I can’t control, they make me and Lee laugh.

And thanks to all of you who share your pets, birds, and kids on social media—it doesn’t remove serious concerns but it reminds me of what’s good.

  1. Your animals are wonderful. What/who is the white one showing beyond Connie’s back? My eyes must be deceiving me, because at first glance, it registered as a piglet. But no – that’s not an animal you’d have without mentioning it. Also, I appreciate Rabbi Keller’s A Prayer Reading the News.
