Perspective

Well, I am glad to be home. I have learned several life lessons today that are going to stay with me for a while. Tex is doing great, he enjoyed a quiet day turned out with his buddy while I spent the day at the hospital with Evan. Evan is fine now. He went by ambulance to the ER with a very fast heart rate, shortness of breath and chest pressure this morning. In my previous life (7 1/2 years ago) I worked in a cardiology office so I know enough about all of these symptoms to be pretty scared. It turned out to be an irregular heart rhythm that should be treatable. But boy, there is nothing like a scare like that to make you step back and realize what really matters.

I tend to become very one minded, and my horses and my job usually take most of my focus. I am going to work on making sure that while working hard, I need to take time to slow down, check in with everyone and make sure that they all know how important they are to me.

Thanks for reading and go hug your family, two legged and four legged.
