Where Do People Come Up With These Names?, That Was a Surprise, I'm Fine

1. Meet Loverboy. He's a pretty, mellow stallion who's staying with us for a short while. It's funny to hear Steve call for him. "Here Loverboy!" Every so often, I ask Steve to call him again. : )

He has the prettiest mane.

2. The sweet, piney smell of our discarded Christmas tree way out back.

3. I still have a mom who calls to see how I am.

I thought of that song from Dirty Dancing when I saw his name - the one with the lyric "Oh Loverboy!" I'll bet that is fun to hear your husband say that. :)

"The world is fairly studded and strewn with pennies cast broadside from a generous hand. But who gets excited by a mere penny?...It is dire poverty indeed when a man is so malnourished and fatigued that he won't stoop to pick up a penny. But if you cultivate a healthy poverty and simplicity, so that finding a penny will literally make your day, then, since the world is in fact planted with pennies, you have with your poverty bought a lifetime of days. It is that simple. what you see is what you get."
