Sunday morning was a mixed bag of good & bad. It was awesome to see Filly's legs doing so fantastic after her first 48 hours unwrapped. It looks like all the hard work & dedication has paid off. Even Filly's knees are looking better with the sponge like lumps & bumps dissolving. Her eye has also cleared up. While we'll never know what caused her eye to become so goopy, it appears being out of the night paddock has fixed the problem.

We wish we could say the same for poor Grey Girl's eye. Her left eye was 3/4 closed & weeping copiously when CMK fed breakfast. It looked like not only was something in the eye, but there was a definite blue area in the corner. Thankfully it's not in the field of vision. One person alone couldn't hold GG AND treat the eye so a call was made & DW came to the rescue once again. Grey Girl is an extremely strong filly, quite possibly in the ranks of a WWF wrestler foal style. CMK had to pin her into a corner, lean on her, & put a semi-choke hold on her so that DW could check out the eye. With tiny forceps a foxtail was removed. Once again CMK is relegated to twice daily stall cleanings. The knight in shining armor, DW, is once again scheduled to come help with the little spitfire nightly until the eye heals. Hopefully no one will ask "what's next"?

When Filly first realized her little friend was not coming back out to play she got mad, running, bucking, calling & even kicking at Mama. Oh what a little brat! Finally she lay down to take a nap. When she woke, she continued searching for Grey Girl but the anger was gone. Filly was moping & walking across the pasture in Eeyore fashion, crying the most pitiful little whinnies. Her sorrowful whinnies were enough to break anyone's heart. Who says horses don't have feelings? Anyone who thinks horses don't have feelings and emotions should come meet Filly. She's such an emotional & expressive filly with tons of personality, loving with all her heart. Hopefully Grey Girl will soon return to pasture so Filly will perk up. It's so sad seeing her depressed. Grey Girl on the other hand could care less, never answering Filly's pitiful whinnies. GG is happy to be with Mommy Dearest, munching on hay & napping in shavings. While CMK & DW don't agree with her, GG thinks she's quite the lucky filly.
