I always hope for the BEST! For many years when I was in an abusive marriage I kept looking at a beautiful gold-colored card I had taped to my wall. There was a sentence written on it with beautiful calligraphy. It said,
"If you are going to dream, dream big" and it was signed. It wasn't until I left my husband that I read the author of those words...Below that sentence it was signed, Donald Trump

What a beautiful story!

I am also expanding my thinking & my dreams!

I figure, if we're going to be moving to a bigger place in the country in 2015, why not add a stable of well-mannered horses & open an equestrian center where some of these poor abused kids can go to relate to a horse. Horses melt hearts & open up communication.

I adore Charlie Ward & most of the folks working with him!

Plenty of room & about 3 or 4 very nice cabins for families to enjoy reuniting while the young things get treatment.

Might better dial the age back about 30 years with the MedBed first, because it's been years since I've trained horses.

Too fat to be shoeing them now... Keyboard is not for me at all cuz I gai
