The weather has been all over the place recently. High winds, rain, sunshine, even a couple of snowflakes. Clever Bird worries that nature is getting a little confused, and Baggy certainly is, but it's lovely for Gloria Gardener to see daffodils popping up all over.
Freda Fretter is a tad worried about what critters are coming into the garden and drinking out of the little pond...
... but something is, as it's constantly emptying! Plus, Clever Bird realised that something is nibbling off the tops of the plants! Gloria has various bits of baggy's body crossed that the various plants that she planted last summer, will reappear this year, but truthfully, Freda Fretter isn't optimistic!
Meanwhile, Furry Mama has been racking up Baggy's steps, doing her daily march along the 1 1/2 miles of Southwold beach in each direction each day.
On various days, Creative Clara couldn't take any photos, as it was raining too hard! But on others, the sky was blue, and the sun was vaguely warm. Today, Furry Mama was on the beach by 8.00am, and it was a stunning day.
The sea was gently lapping the beach, rather than battering it violently, as it has been doing so often recently. The beach was virtually empty of anyone, except the seagulls.
The pooch, who is thankfully now fully recovered from his sickness bug, has the time of his life chasing his ball, and Hormonal Hannah is at peace, watching him.
Grotty Groom is still then walking Wesley around the school for thirty to forty minutes. He is definitely benefitting from it, as he is no longer anywhere near as stiff as he was! Like Baggy's, Wesley's waistline has also reduced!
What's more, he seems to really be enjoying it, as is Grotty, who has missed her Boy a lot in the last few years when illness, and Hormonal Hannah have prevented Grotty from spending much time with him.
But, more amazing yet Baggees, Grotty is now also bringing Joey back into work, by riding him. It's early days, today was only the fourth time, but still...
... the lad is a poppet! There can't be many horses that will happily pootle around in walk without being silly, after having three years off work!
The only downside of that being, that if Baggy can lose enough weight, Grotty would love to ride her own Boy again, and that will likely be a very different story!
Grotty is however determined to at least give it a whirl at some point, so getting Baggy and Wesley fit enough is her priority.
Clever Bird still can't quite believe that changing Baggy's diet, by simply removing most of the sugars from it, could have such a dramatic affect on her mental health - and yet it has! She could never have imagined six months ago, that Grotty would be excited about riding once more. Her depression and anxiety were too bad to allow her to contemplate it; yet, after just eight weeks of eating fresh, home-cooked food, with no added sugars, and only limited complex-carbohydrates, Hormonal Hannah has taken a backseat in the gang, allowing Grotty to resume her rightful place as a key member...
Note to readers: For the avoidance of any doubt, every character in this blog is Baggy! No Baggy was harmed in its writing, although some of them get pretty confused!
