Nothing compares 2 U

Sung to the tune of Nothing compares 2 U: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUiTQvT0W_0
(ears to Prince for writing it and to Sinead o'Connor for singing it best!)




It's been seven hours and a couple of days . . .
Since you took your love away!
I swish flies every night and mope all day . . .
Since you took your love away!

Since you've been gone, I can graze wherever I want . . .
I can roll whenever I choose.
Pretend my paddock is a fancy restaurant . . .
But nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues.

'Cause nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird with a brayful song
(heeeeee, eee, haw!)
Nothin' can stop this lonely rain from fallin'
(But it's Washington—know it's not your fault!)

I can put my ears down for every guy I see
But they don't rub 'em like you.
I saw FarmHusband, and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said, "mule you'd better eat this flake, no matter what you do"
Well he's no fool . . .

But nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

(Heeee, hee, heee, haw . . . hee, haw, hee hee . . . haw . . . .
Hee, haw, hee, haw, hee, hee, haw hee. . . . . .
hee, hee, hee, haw . . . )

All the flowers that I tasted, FarmWife,
in the pasture . . . all eaten since you went away.
I know that waiting for my dinner is always hard,
But I'm willing to give it another try.

Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U
Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

  2. Nice!! I love that you kept the oddly Princeish "2U" thing - he was sort of before his time, I think... now with all the texting lingo we do.
    I'm sorry you're lonely, Fen. But I loved the flashback. Makes me want to shave my head.

Here are the Cloud Dog's X-Rays

Here, for your edification, are the X-rays of dear Paisley's leg. There is, apparently, no new break (since his Monday siezure) but there is, of course, a great deal of abnormality caused by years of living with a shortened ulna. His pronounced lameness, the vet says, may temporarily improve. Unlike me, Fenway Bartholomule, poor cloud dog can't expect much in the way of a full recovery.   Not having the $$$$ for surgery to fuse the joint, we are working on making some sort of rigid splint to support the limb and prevent further degeneration. That is, the humans (with their space-age material inventions and their opposable thumbs) are working on making a splint; I am working on giving cloud dog brayful looks of support and encouragement every time he totters into the yard to relieve himself. As always, he fears me (me?!) and keeps his distance.  Ears to you,  Fenway

Saddle fitting nightmare

I wonder if they had to pay a saddle fitter to tell them the Schleese didn't fit. FB http://www.besthorsestuff.com/ShowAd/index.php?id=4deed0d102f85 For Sale: 18 inch Schleese Jes Elite dressage saddle with Flair Air panels.  This saddle is in exceptionally good, like-new condition with the exception of needing repairs to the front left air bag.  Our Schleese saddle fitter (at the May 28, 2011 fitting) quoted the repair cost at $75-$150. The tree is currently set to "wide" and can be fully adjusted by a saddle fitter.  See the Schleese website for more details. Asking $1200 OBO, a significantly reduced price compared to the current market value of $2000 for the same saddle in pristine, like-new condition. NOTE:  The "saddle rack" is not for sale.  Heehee! Please contact us for more details, serial numbers, questions, or pictures of the saddle.  This is very nice, quality, comfortable and correct saddle for a fraction of the cost, even after the r...
