T-Minus 5 days and Counting

After numerous edits, deletes, and re-writes, I'm glad I got my last post up.  I've been somewhat guilt ridden about my excitement over meeting Kenny.  The heck with it, he said to use his name, so be it. Ken it is.  You can see how much I embellished it for my blog!  ;)   He gave me permission to share a photo of him and his lovely wife that was taken two days ago. Our correspondence has been frequent and I can't believe I get to meet the kind and wonderful man in less than a week.  I made that fateful call on April 29th, praying that I was reaching out to the right man.  Prayers answered and I HUGE thank you to my little equestrian search angel!  So, in less than a month I feel like I know this man already.

Next week, Ken is driving from Florida to Virginia on Wednesday, and from VA to NJ on Friday.  We'll have a quiet couple of hours to say hello, before he passes out after another long drive... Saturday he's game and ready to meet my family.... and my friends... and all the barn folks that are just as much family as they are friends.  I think I have about 40 people coming to the farm for a traditional Pleasant Meadow BBQ!!!! Can you say overwhelmed??  I bet Ken can, and will next Saturday.  We're going to give him a big 'ole welcome to my crazy life!  I hope he's ready.  He said to "Bring it On" and so I shall!!!! (NOT SO) little OLD me gets to spend one quiet evening getting to know him before chaos ensues. Ken will also be able to meet my "Search Angel" and her amazing husband. What an exciting time!!!

Ok, ok, back to work - the fields aren't going to mow themselves!
