It’s been almost two months since Isis passed. I took a brief break from working and read through the post I wrote about Kasane at the Pony Club / Horsemaster game day. Kasane was such a goof that day — and she was so good. Remembering that day made me smile. And then I came […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Kasane knew when Isis had passed. All of the horses had come running up to the front of the pastures and watched her. I had felt Isis pass the torch to Kasane over the summer. It’s hard to describe what that is like, sensing your older mare watch you and be less affectionate and then […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I have a glass book case at home in my bedroom. I cleared one of the shelves for pictures of Isis and for all of the cards I received for her. The sculpture is one Mom gave me a while ago. It always reminded me of how I felt giving Isis a hug. Tweet
A “perk” of the apartment complex where I live. Half of the machines look um… well used, so I won’t touch them, but the elliptical machine and the treadmills are fine. Yesterday, I started an actual workout program and went to the gym by myself for the First Time Ever. It might not sound like […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

One of the keys to successfully treating EPM successfully is early detection. The more people know about EPM, the better chance they will have of recognizing the disease and treating […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
When I was still living at home, every Christmas, Mom would take us caroling to the neighbor’s houses. We had a pretty good knowledge of carols thanks to Tasha Tudor’s Carol book. We’d to the requisite songs and some lesser known ones. Having a good knowledge of carols is a fine thing, unless you are […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’ve been an avid Doctor Who fan since I was little. It’s the one show whose campines, acting, stories, and questionable special effects don’t really matter. So what if the music is over the top and the lines are delivered with the gravitas of a poodle? It doesn’t matter. It’s Doctor Who! Alasdair Wilkin’s essay […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’m starting to play Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (WFRP) and I’ve been looking for adventures. There are adventures a few available in modules and supplements published by Fantasy Flight Games. What I wanted was something short that the group could use to learn about playing. Here are some of the resources I found. One-sheets–single episode / […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
