I got a hella good, and unexpected, raise at work and I will most likely be offering to become Sandy's full owner in February!!!!

Sandy's financial owner is struggling so bad. She sold her clothes, and has 3 jobs now. She hasn't paid me back for vet visits, farrier visits, or supplements for months now, which isn't an issue because I budget for that. I'm terrified she won't be able to make board, so I am going to analyze finances over the course of next month to make sure I can afford board.

Grats on the raise! You two are obviously such a great match. I hope finances work out so she can stay at this facility!

That's great news!

I hope Sandy's financial owner gets into a better place in the coming year as well.

May 2026 bring plenty and joy to you, her, and especially Sandy.
