Hi Christy, I have cabin fever too!  Have 2 teens, and Houston has missed the same amount of school!!  Even the kids want to go back to school!! 
That is exciting about your mare.  I have some exciting news too!  My friend Victoria has found a Friesian stallion for only a $200 stud fee!  As much as I can't afford it, and don't need another horse, I cannot resist the price, as I should be able to sell the foal easily, since they are a fad right now, an expensive one.  He is 3, and his owner, up above Rolla, is gelding him after he breeds some mares.  No papers of course, and the Friesian Association really frowns on crosses anyway.  I am sending up my 1/2 Andalusian mare, and the foal can still be registered as an Iberian Sporthorse.  He is very pretty, and when I get time, I'll post some pictures of Peyton.  My Belgian mare was bred last year accidently to her 1/2 Andalusian grandson, and is due in May, or June.  I was down with my broken ankle at the time.  Oh well.  It should be a nice foal.  My schedule for March is more hectic, than its been lately.  I am going to Little Rock to see Pat Parelli, the first weekend.  The second weekend I'm going to feed the horses at ThunderWolf Equestrian Center, where I was employed before the wreck.  March 17th, I have my annual St. Patricks day party.  March 19th I go to Columbia with Victoria to the doctor.  March 23 I go to Springfield to see my doctor on my ankle.  March 31st.....I turn 50!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!   So if we can work something in for lunch that would be great.  Maybe Janet, you could join us?, Also May, and Karen if you are free, it would be nice for all of us to get together!   Nina

Nina, sorry I'm just now getting back with you. My kids have missed a
lot of school the past two weeks and we all have cabin fever and are
ready for spring!
Anyway, I'm really excited about my mare having her foal this spring.
I am a little concerned about her breathing. She has heaves/broken
wind but it's fine this time of year. It usually gets worse as the
spring progresses. I had the vet look at her last fall, I don't think
there is a whole lot you can do to treat it. Anyway, he gave her
antibiotics and for some reason, bute. I'm pretty sure it didn't help
but I guess he didn't know what else to do.
I had her A.I.'d to a horse from Idaho. Not sure I'd do it again
because of the extra expense vs. live coverage but it's gonna be a
real nice foal.
On another note, I think getting together for lunch sometime would be
fun. I'm always up to eating a meal that I don't have to cook!
