Post-Op Day #37 - Chillin At The Ranch

Yesterday was a lot of fun, I spent almost all day at the ranch hanging out on the lovely deck.

Julie(Barn manager and friend) came and picked me up so I could go down for a while -- the weather was pretty warm so I tried to stay in the shaded part of the deck while I watched the Arizona trainer work with his clients and their horses.

My foot felt pretty good, I was able to keep it elevated(thanks to Helene's mounting block haha) while I was there.
I also got totally hooked on Talking Rain products --mmmmmm hmmmm, very tasty stuff. Peppers'(ranch owner and friend) son Cooper is working for Talking Rain and was nice enough to fill the ranch fridge with all sorts of drinks. :-)

It was a lot of fun to chit chat and watch everyone riding --of course I was a bit jealous but still, it's all good, I have to be patient! Haha!

Pepper decided to ride Karma(Rocky Mountain mare I usually ride), she's been off since I had my surgery, so over a month and she was awesome as usual! She was happy to get out there with Pepper and they had a great ride :-)

I had my camera and forgot to take pictures of them together but I did get some fabulous shots of Mercury and Nikon. I'll add a picture on here later.

I was at the ranch until 3:45ish(I got there around 11:45am) haha, yup, the barn "Time warp" was in action but that's ok, I loved being there and felt good.

Adam picked me up and we went for lunch then came back to the house --- I got a wee bit of sun while at the ranch(oooops, thought I had enough shade, guess not!) so it felt good to hang out in the house with the fans on.

The foot did pretty good but I think that's because I kept it elevated almost the whole time at the ranch.

I took my 10mg of Warfarin and have my INR test in the morning(today) so fingers crossed its above 2.3(that was Friday's #)

Anyways, thats about it for yesterday

Thanks for checking in :-)
