😁 Hi Sandy!! 👋

She looks so good! Question: the difference in her coat color between the pictures, is that bc her coat is thicker now bc she’s healthier? Or is it a seasonal change, ie: winter coat being whiter? Thanks for everything you do for her and thanks for educating us about our favorite equine!

Look into setting up Pi-hole. Blocks ads and trackers. Been using it for years.

Also uBlock Origin as was mentioned.

Haven’t seen any ads in a very long time, and that’s only when watching over-the-air local TV and my finger stays near the mute button.

Advertising has become an omnipresent psychological assault.

Those colors look so good on her! Beautiful girl 🦄

I know nothing about horse behavior. I understand the nervousness around the herd. When she kept running away, was she playing with you? Trying to get you to chase/run around with her? When she overdid it yesterday was that nerves or joy?

Hope you don’t mind the questions. So glad you get to spend more time with her now and that’s she’s at a better farm. The updates always make me smile! Thanks PS: how’s her weight gain going?

Worked with a lady from Tuskegee back in the day. One of the most dignified humans I have ever known. Some of her stories still haunt me. Respect

Best news of the day!! Yay for Sandy!

Oh that’s awesome news in every way! Yay for Sandy!

Glad to hear all went well and you’ll be back at it next week! Thanks for the updates. Is Sandy going to another farm?

This link worked from me. GOG link to freedom to buy games

Yes, best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery!

And we love Sandy! Nice to have you back, too!

Hopefully the “good stuff” you sprung for will kick in soon and she’ll be less resistant.

I don’t know much about horses, but I suppose this would be equivalent to a human having an infection under a fingernail or? Bc that’d be super sensitive pain wise.

So I take it she developed this since being at this farm? Could she get it again bc of conditions there?

You know, we really do need her full backstory. Sweet girl has a fan base and we love her ❤️ I know I smile every time you post a Sandy pic.

Also, if she needs anything else to help her live her best healthy life that you need help funding, I’m sure some of us would be happy to help.

Thanks for being her champion and for sharing her with the Fediverse!

• Stroke (genetic predisposition)
• Some form of political violence / civil war

Sleepy girl so cute! And that’s great news to hear. I’m so glad you’re her human.

My bathroom was right at the top of a long staircase. When I’d be putting makeup on in the morning, Gilligan would bring me one of the small sponge balls from the living room and drop it just inside the door. I’d flick it down the stairs and he’d leap down 2-3 stairs at a time, find the ball and bring it back for the next round. He’d do it over and over again, every day. Miss that boy. Great post!

Still sporting her lovely braided mane?

Sandy posts always make me smile 😊 Love to hear your updates and so grateful she has someone like you.

Just double checked and the chairman is indeed Jim “Gym” Jordan Sick fuck

Jordan was an assistant coach with Ohio State University’s wrestling program from 1987 to 1995.

Richard Strauss was the wrestling team physician during Jordan’s tenure. Strauss died by suicide in 2005. In April 2018, Ohio State University began an independent investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by Strauss. Of the 177, 153 were student-athletes, of which a plurality (48) were members of the men’s wrestling team.: 43

Several involved persons have stated that Jordan surely knew of Strauss’s criminal misconduct but did not report it. Other wrestlers and Head Coach Russ Hellickson said he may not have known about the abuse. A spokesperson for Jordan denied the allegation, saying that “chairman Jordan never saw or heard of any abuse, and if he had, he would have dealt with it”. No wrestlers have accused Jordan himself of sexual misconduct, but four former wrestlers named him as a defendant in a lawsuit against the university.Jordan has denied any wrongdoing and has described his accusers as “pawns in a political plot”.

Ooh, I’m so jelly of working in a barn and near horses! Ouch re: your ankle. Bummer about aqua therapy. It was very hard to find for me too. But it sounds like you’re all set for the task, so here’s wishing you good luck! Do post updates for us concrete jungle types.
