So I was in the barn the other night, cleaning stalls and prepping food for the horses and Ms. Morgan Sophia Beasley came out of her stall for the first time (sort of) and into the aisle. The previous night she came out and quickly went back in. Well last night she was ready to explore. After over a month of near hibernation, only getting up from sleep; to eat, poop/pee and to get treats or be brushed she was coming out. She explored the barn, while the horses were outside, and found many tasty morsels of food all around. So where am I going with all this? Simply a story about our pig? Nope... Well, a few short months ago I was someone else. No I haven't changed as a person but my life, our life sure has. Who would have thought that I would be taking care of horses and coaxing a pig out of her stall! It's a pretty cool life...and boy am I ready for summer! Done with the cold. The video above was taken at various points during the last week. It's of the boys as they enter the outdoor arena which is usually followed by running around and a bit of playful roughhousing, like a couple of brothers. Sometimes they really go wild. Wish I had gotten film of that. The second part of the video is of Morgan "vacuuming" the floor of the barn. All of it is so much fun to watch and yes I am in part, somebody else. A good thing. The first song that is playing, Somebody Else, is from the perfect film, Crazy Heart, that is out now starring Jeff Bridges as a washed up, alcoholic country singer touring the country by himself. It is stunning and that is Jeff Bridges singing. He is a lock for the best actor oscar. Take that to the bank! The second song is called I Don't Know, also from the movie. Pick up the soundtrack. It too is perfect! Get the deluxe edition... |

ReplyDeleteYou can't help but be 'somebody else' when you have so many new responsibilities! And I know that you just LOVE it!!!

ReplyDeleteEric you've given me a love for animals that I didn't realized existed, starting with Traveler, the Cats, (too many to name) Czar, Midnight, and even a Vietnamese pig who would have ever thought. I must say I have a bond with Wilco after hearing his cries for help after getting himself stuck between the walls in the barn. Never thought that would happen with myself and a cat, that proves anything is possible. Love Dad
Watched the video again...OH MY GOD!....I love it when the fence opens and Czar comes charging in...how did you ever get that footage without getting trampled?????? So AWESOME!!!! The music couldn't be more perfect!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!!
love...mom
