Catching up
The well is working fine, thanks for asking! We also had the pressure increased just a little; now the horse tanks fill faster and we get nice strong showers!
Remember I had some arthroscopic surgery done on my knee back in October? One troubling thing discovered was that I was terribly aniemic. Had it gotten even a little worse, I'd be in for transfusions! As it was, just a course of iron shots (ouch!) and consultation with a couple of doctors to try to discover the cause. The most likely cause was constant menstrual bleeding - (sorry for you squeamish folks! the next paragraph will be better). We'd already tried regulating it with hormones and diet - very poor results, so it was time to have my uterus removed. That surgery was a few days ago, and I seem to be doing great. Very minor pain, and my iron level is good. I'm kicking a little because I hate being indoors, but this is probably the best time - I'll be all healed in a month or so.
We've had some very neat weather! I took a bunch of pictures of the hoarfrost around the place. You can see them at my Bravenet photosite, just click on "My Pictures" once you are there. Here's a little sample, Lover Boy had some frost in his mane, and you can see it in the trees beyond the fence.
Hope you all have Great Holidays!
