My word you gals have been busy!!!!  I'll never catch up with all your posts  :hug:

So Blossom arrived, settled in beautifully, and then all that travel caught up with her, poor baby.  We got her through a series of penicillin shots, and over her cough/cold... and she's  had a short adventure playing ball.. But now she's had a growth spurt and her leg keeps slipping out of place.  Its very common in draft, pony type babies.  Basically the leg structure in the hind end gets too straight and the tendons loosen around the joint and leg gets stuck.  Its horrid to see....for all intents and purposes, it looks like they've broken their leg     So she's really been through the wars, poor wee lassie!  She'll come right, though and I"m sure we'll go back to having more fun ...
Her first meeting with a playball     We'll go back to playing games once she feels better again. 

AND I've been horribly behind in my mushroom work because we've been tending to Blossom....so Eldon and I have been playing catch up... yet to finish with that...

And Mister went into the vet's yesterday to become a 'responible' Mister!      He got neutered so as not to overpopulate the world with little black kittens...and so he'll stop this Casanova roaming nonsense!  The vet did a wonderful job with him.....truly pleased.....I'm sure in a day or so Mister will be fully healed and nary a look back...

And for my poor bear making...I've still got my bear in progress that I was working on over a month ago...    I feel so out of touch with my bears just now, its really wierd.  But given some time and space I'm sure I'll get back into my routine.

Just a  :hug:  to say I miss you all!!!  :hug:

:hug: Awwwhhh!! Thanks for asking!!!  :hug:   She's doing really well.  Her leg is still sore from where it still 'sticks' occasionally, but other than that, she's a happy girlie out munching on her grass.

Our weather has changed to our typical hot, muggy 90*F temps as we shift gears to go into summer.  Blossom's been born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland, so she's more used to 50*F weather.  She's having to discover standing about in the shade, and thinking 'cool' thoughts.  Its a totally different strategy, but I'm sure she'll adapt quickly.  Even Mister, our black stray tom cat is learning to hang about and stay 'cool' in the shade
