Still out here rattling along playing the waiting game. Journey has about an inch of stretched white line from the winter laminitis episode the grow/ trim out. She progressed to a point, and then it has been a very definite off right front ever since. Some days pronounced, other's barely there. Lot of uncertainty on her being ride-able again.
After nearly passing out at my desk from the intense stress of my job this past week, I put in notice. It is scary walking away from the money, and I know I'll have to replace it, but my health has really suffered being the phone intermediary calming down very righteously upset customers for the past couple of years. I generally do a good job of that, but picking up the phone is like a game of Russian Roulette, you never are quite sure if there is a live one in the chamber. Try healing gastric ulcers while doing that. It hasn't worked out so well for me. Now I'll have to find work again. The older I get the more daunting that is if you want more than a minimum wage. We are located 30-45 minutes from anything for even potential employment. Plan to give myself a few weeks to just chill and try to get my guts working right, and start looking again.
