The duck's are handleing the winter with great upset. They don't like not having full bathing water all the time. Its too cold for them to have that and not just drinking water. I have to carry them hot water everyday. Painter is so pretty. I'm so happy to get to have these cheerful birds in my life everyday.
My rabbets seem o be doing will. The littlest one is such a trouble maker but I cant help but love her. Kodiak is a happy boy. Kodiak's thing is that he hates shavings. Leo is enjoying his move to a new cage.  Leo could care less as lng is there is food around he is happy.

Happy Saturday Blog Readers. With my dog still out of work, still limping my Saturday plans where put aside. There would have be a snow clothed walk if he had been feeling better. Instead I have spent my day so far looking at the Pug Breeders in Washington that AKC Pugs. We have a lot of pug breeders in our state. I love Pugs I always have.
With boulder limping still hurt I have become a bit fearful that he may not recover to his full strength anytime soon. I just hope he is ready to rock and role by spring. I can't wait for fair 2016. I have a few animals that haven't been shown yet and I can't wait to see what the judges think.


That's Alll for now

Tiss The Night After Thanksgiving

Happy day after Thanksgiving or Black Friday. I'm so tried but I cant go to bed it is still far to early. I spent yesterday with my family. I'm so thankfully for that. I'm so thankful for everyone in my life this time of year. Today my brother's butchered two of the roasters. It was okay by me as those two had become rather mean trod me. My Aunt is staying with us until tomorrow, then my other aunt that lives in town is taking her home on Sunday. I love having an aunt that is younger than me.
Now that is Christmas's time we had to write our lists for the gifts we wanted. It is close to tradition for me to ask for a pug puppy. This year I wasn't going to ask for one like last year but mom put it on the list. Dad said no but mom said it was fine to have it on the list. I have wanted a pug most of my life. Okay all of my life.
The other big thing on my list this year is a Guitar.. Purple would be best but I would be happy with anything as long is it was playable.  Its the biggest thing on my list this year. The next think on my list is more of a need then a want. I want a new pair of hoof boot for my superstar endurance horse in training Cody. He has such weak feet the boot are pretty make a must have on rocks and gravel witch is where we do most of our riding
Hope you had a good Thinksgiving

Happy

Happy Wednesday day... Some people's parents. The teacher and said student are sending said parent  long worded text how to light a fire... Some people. My dog still limping and its worrying me.Messages and extra treats for him. I just hope my buddy gets all the way better. If it wasn't for the fact we have family coming over for the weekend I would keep him inside to rest. With people coming however he would much rather be outside where none can brother him. trust me he will get some leftovers. Mostly beucase i would forget to walk him.
My plans for thanksgiving are rather boring. The normal stuff plus having my family over. I also need to study for Math Is Cool masters next weekend. I also need to play with my healthy dog dog Coco.She had a birthday not too long ago. Ive had her since she was born. I also need to trim animal toenails a never ending task. Maybe I will get a chance to brush Kodiak the rabbit as will.  He could use it.
Thats All For Now

Snow,Dogs,and other stuff

Happy Happy Tuesday Blog Readers.  It snowed all night and left us in a winter world of perfect. We can sing Christmas songs. Snow gives us the right to do so. Yes you can sing Christmas song's once its snowed.  It is fine its winter now.
My dog is still limping. He must have been hurt worse than I thought at first. I just hope he gets better soon. I hate seeing my dog hurt. My poor boy has had such a hard left few monthes. He has been hurt now times then he has ever been in his life. He has to go outside anyway when I'm not home to walk him. He well most likely stay in alot of the time over the long holiday weekend. I need my buddy to be ready to run again next summer. We have two years left of 4-H fair. I can't bear the throught of having to not show him my last two fairs. We have come so far in the last few years. I love this dog so much. He keeps me warm when I'm cold. He tries his best to cheer me up. He dose most anything to make me happy.
When Boulder was a lot younger the range cow's came up into our hay one day. I came outside latter andf called for my dog. He comes around the corner a jaw looking like meat.He had to have his jaw wired shut. Thats when he first came into my room to sleep at night. i would sit on the floor and read him picture books for hours. Now that its healed you can't tell he ever did it. He also dosn't chase the livestock as much now.

May Has Will Start Now

Happy Tuesday Blog Readers.....Friends, Family and told strangers alike. Its Monday of a two and a half day school week. We get to have a holiday long weekend As will as a break for all things work related at all.I get to hang out with my favorite aunt and eat Turkey nothing is better. Okay, I'd rather hide in the office and write and role-play.
 Maybe even celebrate the most likely week of birth starting today and running through the first week. My happy dog is 10 years old.  Boulder will get turkey and other such treats as he has for all the Thanksgiving's past. After this meany years I know how much he loves to be spoiled to death. Lets started the party in his honor today.. Hopefully I can post a baby picture at some-point this week of my awesome dog.
When I was 6 years old I met my best pal for the first time. Our neighbor and her granddaughter where driving over Boulder Pass. It was cold,freezing cold, minus 30 cold. The granddaughter saw the box and wanted to burn it. On the way home they stopped to get it. In it where little blue fluff-ball's Boulder and his litter-mates. Who would do such a thing to a litter of healthy puppies? I'm just  glad they all where okay. They brought them back to neighbor's house.My dad went down there.. My dad never says no to a baby animal. He brought Boulder home for me. He was a tiny most likely about three week old puppy that needed a girl as much as I needed a dog. Each and everyone of those puppies found a forever family. That's  just how it started.
Boulder has become my best friend. With every day he sleeps on my bed that bond grows. A girl and her dog. Boulder is my 4-H project. A fair for every year his been mine minus two plus two.  He loves me more than anything else in the world. I can't image not having my super awesome dog around all the time. He is my best friend and the best dog I could ever ask for.. I'll most likely tell more Boulder stories over the upcoming days. I'm so grateful for the people that brought this special dog into my life. Boulder is truely a one of a kind dog.

I Love My Town

 Happy Thursday Good blog readers. Lets start off with a poem from history class. This is so the story of Ferry County.


Icy Flame’s Set Us Free

 

Frosty Mornings       A Cold Embrace

What Is Left Of The Trees

Burned and Destroyed

Now Glisten’s

                   With Frost

Winter’s Grip    Only Shake’s The Flame’s Now

Trapped                              Alone                   Isolated                       

As Flame’s Licked

                                                 At Our World

A Tiny County  Joined  Together

                                                         By Fire

Smoke Turn’s                                    To Cool Air                       At Long Last

The Flames Are But A Memory Now

Still Isolated  

Still No Where

Always Knowing                              Where Are Free Always 

The Fire’s Proved

                             Just How Small  

                                                       We Truly Are

Back To The Blog

I'm singing the lyric's to John Cougar John Deere and John 3:16  by Keith Urban over and over like I don't know a hundred plus songs to sing on any given day. Its another song about small towns. Our teacher in History asked want kind of music fit our county. We are a country song.  The verse in the bible John 3:16 is a good on: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Is the verse its one of my favorites, everything you really need to know can be learned from it.  Just as it says in the song.

Another song fits the Ferry County thing is Break Up In A Small Town by Sam Hunt. In  this tiny town you see the people around that you break up with. Just Like in the song they will end up dating your friends. You keep running around with the same people. Once you know a person here the only way to get free is to move.

Another one is Small Town USA by Justin Moore.  It talks about the pride we have and that no matter want if we are here you can be happy. Ferry county is like all the small towns. Its simple and free. I wouldn't have it another way.

The next and final song of the day is Famous In A Small Town by Miranda Lambert. Its the word always gets around song. Everyone knows everything here. It's the bad part of living here we have active rumor mill. MIND YOUR WORDS. You will lose friends if you don't.

I love this place don't get me wrong. I love the people here. This my home. When I'm gone I'll always be waiting to get back. This place gets into blood and into your heart, it never comes out. The school and the people in it are the greatest.  my life is best because of this place. Where else in the world do you bring together this different group of people in one place..... I love Ferry County.

Good Day,

Home Day

Happy Wednesday. No school today but my brothers are off at wrestle practice. I slept in tell 7:45. That means I'm a lot less tried. I have nothing really great happening so I'm just sitting at the computer.  Reading and writing. In a little bit I will have to go do the chores. Since the sun is out I want to wait and see if it warms up a bit more before I go out there. The ducks would like it if I cam out when it was dark. They really like fresh water but its been too cold for a full water change. I don't want to freeze then by letting then have full bath tubs when it's cold out. The have heated tubs but they aren't set up yet as it takes a lot of power to heat all the animal water.

Tried

Happy tried Tuesday. Yes it is both of those things. I'm so tried.  Its a good day by most other accounts. Last time a wash the dishes form when i was gone all weekend I went to a thing for church and too my grandparents house. It was pretty fun. I also got to met my newest baby family member. he is so cute. When i got home we watched the Seattle game. It was pretty upsetting. I also fell down the carpet house stairs. I'm scraped and bruised on one leg pretty badly. Yesterday It hurt the worst it has since i did it before we left to go over for the church thing and dance. At least tomorrow is a no school day for student and parent conferences....or pain and suffering one of the two. The upcoming month is the most stressful month of the year.  We have Math is Cool Master's the vary first weekend. We are going to win.

Dogs, Life Is

Happy Thursday Good Blog Readers. I'm so sorry for not getting a post up sooner. This week has been crazy. Monday  ran out of time, Tuesday we had an assemble and a short class and Wednesday we had no school for Veteran's Day. I got my room the rest of the way clean so that makes me super happy. 




Its almost my dog's birthday Boulder will be ten years old. My how time has flown since we brought the three week old rescue puppy home.  My other dog Coco just had a birthday I believe, I'll have to check on that later. I remember her as a brand new single puppy. She weight twice the normal weight and that hasn't changed since she was small.  She is this moose of a dog.  In a more formal life is a  needs to be shown show dog her name is Backwood's Belgian Chocolate. The last daughter of a great sire and the first daughter of our beloved Sparkle. The big sister to our Cash and Cowgirl.




Now and them the little things help to brighten up a day. A short snow fall. A Goldfish Cracker. I really like goldfish crackers. Not have a direct teacher watching over you. Sitting in a class room listening to everyone really working. writing, okay that makes everything better all the time, it makes my world go round. Blogging, its like writing life. Writing is life, life is writing. Animals are also life. Animals and Writing are life without them it would be NOT OKAY.




Life is words on pages and songs in hearts. Why do hearts have beats? It must be that music is life. I write songs too. A I have a 110 songs in a notebook in the music room. Those songs have deep meanings. They things I feel come out on those pages.


Its a good day. School will be out in a short amount of time then I can go home. Wash dishes and do chores them get back on the computer for the next part of the day. Then I can go to bed. Then wake up and go to school. Thank you for Friday. Then the weekend with no real plans. I have to brush Coco since she is shedding. Belgian's are a shedding breed. Our Sparkle shed's then sheds more and more.
So Bye For Now,

Happy Monday folks. Its  pretty blue day in Ferry County. We are watching old music videos. Back in the past yet again. Thank you teacher you can't get out of the past.  But its okay. its still fun. I love my  English Class this group of kids give me so much happiness. I love to look at old pictures because many of the same kids are still here. I spent the weekend cleaning my room. A clear sign I was hard at work is that the whole thing is clean between 10 on Saturday and 8 last night. All i have left to is to steam clean then my room will be ready to sit a few years before the next time I deep clean. Wait only two years until I move out and again clean said room. Found some too large at one big  pants we had put aside. They all fit now, we waited just the right amount of time.

It has snowed only one time. I hope it snows more soon. Winter with no snow is a punishment, its too cold to ride but not impossible.


Late and late monday's today

Mermory Lane

Today we toke a walk done down memory lane.  It was also the first snow day of the year. We went back 5th grade thanks to our teacher he was our teacher back than to. I was so much shorter standing next my best friends. I'm not that much shorter than them.to see how cute we where. How much I miss the people that are no longer a part of my class now. I wish everyone was here so we could redo them, All grown up. Saw my first boyfriend that boy boy and me had so much fun. I miss him so so much with everyday that passes by.

I miss everyone with each passing day and hour. I miss running around with no real point. I miss being kids. I miss the top of the youngest being us. I miss my friends and knowing they where my friends all the time, I miss a time when I was still free to be a kid.

That was when I had had amazing horse, a horse that I loved with all my heart my matter how much I still missed the mare he had followed after. That was when  I  had been jumping a year. I still miss that bay gelding and my sweet paint mare sometimes. I miss flying around the jumps on Mr.P and my first fair on Streak. Those two horses toke me through  many firsts.

Its almost time for another year to have gone by since I lost my first big horse. Its been 7 years already since I lost my Sundance Streak.... I miss my paint. Her last ride was under my best friend. I'm so glad she got to ride her. Streak was an amazing horse. One of my heart horses. My best friend for the 4 or so years that we where a team. She loved me and in return I loved her. Losing her was a knife in my heart.  I'll end up doing a long post about her at some point I would think.

Mr. P, can it have really been two years already. It seen like just the other day we where coming home to him standing on the porch steps.  Has it really been 5 years since I brought home my hero horse for the first time. Since we jumped our first fence. Its been a long road form there to here. A road I wouldn't trade anything for it. I will never regret falling in love with my big bay hero horse.  I'm most  likely going to write a long post for his April Birthday.


Oh how life changes... Everything has to change remember that as you go on with your day. But somethings can stay the sane. Drop me a line if we haven't talked in a bit.i miss everyone i haven't talked to and I can't wait to hear form some of you.

Have An Awsome Rest Of The Day

Musings Of Love/Songs Agian

Happy Wednesday. I guess yesterday's blog was pretty good. My mom asked me to read it tonight at the Award's Night. I will, I guess, read it. Even if it is going to sound weird and I may just turn beet red. I did add love to the list of things that happened this year.  Its okay the 4-H leader's council already got that out of me back in February when they saw the picture of me at KYG with the my ex. I had to tell them about that, awkward.

I'm thinking about four songs right now, witch is less than normal, but still two to many. The songs are Tear In My Heart, Angel In The Centerfold, Thinking Out Loud and If I Got Locked Away. I must be having a odd day if the one line of a song I'm singing is form Angel In The Centerfold even remember the tittle of that song until I started to blog today. I think Tear In My Heart will be stuck in my head for a long time. Thinking Out Loud, is my favorite song, its our song that made me smile. Eveytime it play's now I sing along and I remember us. Why I'm I thinking about If I Got Locked Away?  I connect with that song so much, I wonder about when I show people my flaws if they will stay. I need a person that will be there to always hold me down just like the guy in the song. That person that will spend their whole life with me.

Love has so much backlash. When you love someone never let them forget it. When the time comes to let go make it quick and don't second guess you heart until its had all the time in the world to heal. If it come to a time when you are ready to talk as friends do it. If you love someone and want to date then or be with them. Do it, you may never get a second chance. Those people can slip away don't let them.

Moving on form that, I just thought of another song, Sam Hunt Take Your Time.
 This song is about not wanting anything more than to take a person's time, not wanting to wreck there Friday or take them home. It has been thought of as sort of a sales pitch song. Its a nice song about just wanting to talk and not take away the other persons life/Friends.

Bye For Now Have A Magical Day,
Echo

4-H This Year

Good day good people.  Its Tuesday, one day down, a few days to go. Then the weekend will be here. I get to sit around and write, play with my pets, and watch tv.  That's the best part of my life.  I do love school but I would rather be at home with my animals any day.

Tomorrow is 4-H awards night. Another year of 4-H has come and gone. Another year of camps, fun, new friends, old friends and love.. Yes I through it in, love and losing it, was a part of my 4-H year. There may have been no horse shows and no fair but we still made the best of everything. We still attended the State Fair, where I made new friends. I really like my 4-H friends even my grumpy old cow-dog made some new friends.

Before State Fair

 

We hosted the distract team rally, winch everyone had a blast at. I can't believe its time to start a new 4-H year again but it is. In Ninety some odd days I will again join my friends form around the state.  For another Know You Government. I can't wait. The theme is Elections this year. I hope that my third year is as awesome as the first two. We get to have our first meeting soon to start getting ready. I'm so so  excited.

                                            Mining For Gold And Gems At Teen Rally

I also got some new project animals.  I hatched baby call duck Painter. I was also given two bunnies. Kodiak the English Lop and Aqua Mist the Polish. By a family friend thanks again for my bunny kids.

Many Topics

My head hurts yet again this Monday. Happy National Novel Writing Month Writers. Today is day two of the best month the year.  In my case I just want to finish writing my novel I started a few weeks  ago. I was all set to start a new story but I have fallen in love with the mc of my novel.  Yes, he is a better person than me. He is the brave side of all of us. His story is a break form my normal horse and rider stories. A deep mystery with magic and a hidden secret.
On the topic of love, the worst feeling in the world is loving someone who you can't be with or maybe its knowing that they are with someone else. Honestly it rips a hole right in you. When its a simple case of they are with someone else you pull on move on.  Any other time its a miserable time.
On topic of other peoples words. Watch what your saying you never know who your hurting. Who your pushing close to crying or to hurting themselves. You don't always know want people are going through, maybe think before you speak, or act.  Don't make fun of people that are different in any way. Its okay to be different in anyway.
On the topic of friends, keep them close but keep your best friends closer. They might just be the ones to save your life. They are the ones you would never be the same with out having know. They are the one that only act because its in you best interests and they do everything in their power to try to keep you safe, remember that when your about to go against them. I love my best friends, without them I'd be so lost. In your darkest hour who's going to be there. Who's going to talk to you all night long skip sleep to help you at a word's notice. They  are your best friends, they are the ones that you tell everything too. You are always ready to loose sleep together.. That's why you keep your best friends the closest. That's why they are so important. I thank my best friends for everything they've ever done for me..
On the topic of pets, animals can tell everything, when your hurting they try their best to make you feel better. Animal's are member's of the family too. Never leave them behind or abounded them.  Only the worst people can do that. My horses and my dog and my other small animals are my best friends. They are always there for you. They are always happy to see you. They are the first ones to come see you when you come home after a long trip.
On the topic of school, yes you do need it.  School is boring and at times you don't feel like it's needed but it is. With school you couldn't get a job or have a life. You couldn't read or write. See school is important. So I'll keep up my good work.
That's the topics of the day. If you have any ideas for future On The Topic Of's. Comment them and I'll get to them at some point soon.
Thanks For Reading,
