Chaffehaye challenge
I have been feeding the alfalfa chaffhaye for my own horses since Feb. I have also had several of my clients start using it. This hay has been fantastic for the insulin resistant horses as it is very low in sugar but high in nutrients and fatty acids. My horses were very slow to [...]
The Go Giver
John David Mann is one of my most favorite people. I have known John for over 15 years and his quiet manner draws you in. In his book, The Go Giver, he and Bob Burg tell a story of a fictitious salesman named Joe. Joe is your stereotypical, ambitious go getter who wants to be [...]
Deadliest catch
I love to watch the show called deadliest catch. It is on the discovery channel and follows Alaskan crab fisherman through a season of fishing. The conditions these men work in are amazing and they are just as amazing in their toughness. This is not some made for TV reality show but the recording of [...]
The fox wins
Well, my little hen that Tess and I rescued from the fox did not make it. I nursed her 4 days and she got strong enough to stand up and walk around. I mixed up algae water for her to drink because she could not eat solid food. It was interesting to me that [...]
Remi learns a lesson
Remi, my Yang Ming temperament horse, is very well behaved with one exception. At feeding time he puts his ears back and gets too much in my space. If I confront him he backs up and I insist he put his ears up before I put feed in his bucket. Lately he has been getting [...]
Tess saves my chicken
I have learned the hard way that I can’t let my chickens run loose. I do let them out occasionally if I am feeding or working right where they are. The fox around here are not shy and will come right up to the house. Most of my hens are too big to fly out [...]

Udder swelling in an Earth horse temperament
My friend, Rita, has a real nice Earth temperament horse named Kate. Kate has had several health issues most of which involve excess fluid accumulation in her tissues. Over the last several years Kate has had several occasions when her udder has become swollen and sometimes Rita can milk some clear fluid from each teat. [...]
The Forgotten Man
The Forgotten Man, A New History of the Great Depression, by Amity Shlaes is one of the most powerful books I have read in a long time. This book is a history book and it does not give much in the way of opinion or commentary. What Amity Shlaes does is take the important public [...]
Networking Times to the rescue
This last week I had my usual Tues. vet appointments cancel because the barn had a virus going through it. I was excited to have some extra time to devote to my networking. I am very excited about some new programs my company is offering and I have thought of some new people to add [...]
