Happy Belated Birthday, @Elizabeth Smith!

Thank you!

I never really watched Bear in the Big Blue House, but Tutter is an icon.

I have 35 minutes for Wednesday.

I don't mind doing it if nobody else wants to, although I'd be lying to you if I said I knew what I was doing!

 

[Twilight Sparkle]

One of my horses heard I might not make goal, so he decided to make me spend more time (and more money - vet bill) at the barn today by attempting to jump his paddock and failing, getting stuck on top of the fence panel instead. Such a thoughtful boy. Good news is, so far so good. Supposedly he might feel pretty sore the next few days, but it could have been so much worse. ETA: Bad news is, this is not the first time he has done this and one day his luck will likely run out.

275 minutes - horses, kitty playtime, yoga

Happy belated birthday, Elizabeth Smith! Clappyclaps, we’re a pretty easy bunch—just happy to have someone hosting! Twilight Sparkle, glad your horse is OK!

 

[clappyclaps]

No problem I'll get September's up before the end of the weekend

Don't think we need it but another 140 from me for the past few days towards the team goal.

 

[Raya]

Adding another 60, I don't know if I'm going to make my goal with all the holiday weekend stuff going on. Hoping to squeeze another workout in this month, but we'll see.

Raya - 780/850 91%

 

[PollyannaMom]

My treadmill walk got cut short this morning, so I'll try to get in some minutes tomorrow, but for now, Twilight Sparkle, Raya, and the TEAM are red

...and we are only 354 minutes from goal, with two days left in the month.


@clappyclaps for taking on September!!


Today's mice are Abner Countrymouse and Monty Citymouse, from Disney's early "Silly Symphonies" cartoons:


It's based on the Aesop's Fable "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse" with an added musical score written by Leigh Harline.
