a dry (ish) paddock

i checked the small isolation/starvation paddock this morning (it currently has grass!) and found that the mud in that was not at all deep - in many places the ground was dry, and where it wasn't, the mud would not get higher than possibly the tips of molly's feet... so out she went.

the legs are looking a lot better - and better again tonight than this morning. definition is back. If the weather stays as it is, she can stay in there for a few days. still too deep to take her up to the field, as there's a morass to get through on the way.

so that was all she did today, partner wanted me to come home for an early tea, which we don't normally have...

wanted, not needed.

usually she doesn't come home tuesdays, out singing, and usually we don't have an early tea...

and probably thinking i'd had all day to play with the horse...

Glad Molly got out. She needs time to romp and be silly..or just stand around doing nothing if she wants to. In other words, she needs time to just be a horse.

Hope the rest of the place dries up enough so she can begin enjoying things again with her friends.
