so Cook is doing ok.  She seems to be taking stall rest well.  She stays in her regular stall during the day and then in a broodmare stall at night.  (broodmare stall is bigger and has 2 windows).  I had to give her her 4th shot today.  Man, is it getting hard.  She will have 12 shots in all.  4 down, 8 to go.  I’m confident with them now.  I didn’t even ask Meredith to watch me the last time.  I usually have her watch over my shoulder.  Cook is gonna start being bad for me here soon.  I can see her watching me now to see what I have behind my back.   I know she will be worked up the next few days but she has a staff infection and she HAS to have this pencilin.  I would rather her hate me now then this infection to worsen.

I did hand walk her around to stretch her legs and eat grass.

I rode Miss and Fox today and both were excellent.  Miss was non-chalent in the field, and then I went and rode Fox with the girls in the ring. 

I am really a very lucky girl.  I have 3 beautiful horses (only one is mine), but 3 really good, well mannered, well behaved horses that I get to sit on.  I had a good time today.  Most of the kids and other riders have moved to the new barn so I have been riding alone mostly.  It was nice to have Rachel out there riding with me.  We get along pretty well.  She’s cool because she’s like 13/14 and she has friends her own age but she also can hang with me.  So that was fun.
