Sorrow

It's not often that we lose one of our own around here, so when we do, it's upsetting to all. I feel especially horrible after my comments from yesterday. I wasn't around when it happened, but I would guess it was an accident with everyone trying to stay out of the rain this morning. Lindy had never shared the barn with anyone because in her short life, it was all sunshine, despite a horribly rainy summer. I'm sure whomever jumped into the bunk where Lindy always slept didn't know she was there. By the time the human found her, even though there was a dangerously mad dash to the vet's office, nothing could be done.

Out of respect for Jilly and in honor of Lindy, I'm going to take a couple of days off. Blessings to everyone, and I'll be back soon.

Thanks,

Millie
