HC Minis 2016 foaling line-up

[Chanda]

Chanda, sounds like youve been seriously working your tail off!

Just in short bursts.  Then, I do have time to catch up, but when I'm working like that I do feel like I'm going to die, I'm so out of shape, and I walk a fair amount every day to get my daily routine done.

[paintponylvr]

still taking me a bit to get used to this format!

Thanks for inviting me in, DIane!!

CHANDA = I AM IN LOVE.  With Bonny, with Topper, with the quilts  (who'd have thunk it - I LIKE the red, green, black flower one) and even the calves (the black was adorable).  Maybe it needs to be one of those "feaky Fridays" (For 1 day - hubbies would freak out otherwise, who knows we might all, too)... 

[Chanda]

Thank you, Paula.
I have another quilt the same fabric, different pattern, if you think you need one.  Most of my quilts are for sale, already sold and some have been gifts.
Yep, taking a little bit to get used to the new forum, but I think I like it.

We're happy to have you here, Paula!   it's always a challenge to learn a new format, but we needed something fast, as we're in the birthing season and we just wanted to get back to the chatting and sharing and watching these little ones growing up.

And yes, Chandra, we have no 'for sale' rules, so feel free!!

[Chanda]

I won't abuse that rule or lack of rule, but just throwing it out there that I do sell many of the quilts that I make.
Here's the other black and red quilt, not quite as fancy as the other one (just made it up as I went):

[dcwolcott]

As always, just beautiful!!

[Chanda]

As always, just beautiful!!

Thank you.  I appreciate it.

[Chanda]

And yes, Chandra, we have no 'for sale' rules, so feel free!!

I'm going to be picky for a second...   Diane, there is no R in my name, you fairly recently started adding the R, as I don't recall it being there before when you typed my name.   

[Chanda]

And, on a better note.  Looks like Tana did some pretty serious shopping over the last few days while I've been quite busy with branding, moving pairs out to pasture and moving equipment around to prepare for seeding. Bonny seems about the same or just slightly bigger.  [Nothing with Misty, and I didn't take a peak at Showy.]   No pictures, and I haven't tested pH since the once day I tested Bonny; but will try to get that done tomorrow, hopefully they don't sneak anything in on me; since I'm headed to town tomorrow to have a late Mother's Day lunch with Mom and do a couple errands while I'm there.

I love seeing your quilts! My Mom makes them, and we are going to start a denim pocket quilt soon! W ill post pics as we work on it!

[Ryan]

Sounds like your girls are moving forward perfectly Chanda 

[Chanda]

One them is probably going to pick this week to foal, it's supposed to be cold, windy and wet for pretty much the rest of the week.    Most of the time the girls have just good windbreak for weather protection; but when I know about probable weather coming, I open up the barn aisle to them, and with Caddy gone, they have access to what was her paddock and shelter, if they'll use it, the gate is tied open.
It's currently coming down in buckets and the wind is blowing.  Dogs should go out for their last potty break of the night, but I don't see them leaving the porch with this crap coming down.

[Ryan]

Must be the week for it, I have never seen rain like we had here yesterday, it was out of control !!

Seeing though the weathers like it is, your probably right- It will be this week 

[Chanda]

mid-morning would be fine with me.

[Renée]

Sounds like you have been very busy Chanda. We have had terrible rain here too, it is crazy weather here in Italy, last week it was gorgeous and hot and now it is cold and wet! Probably why I got sick!
