So.. he leaves Wednesday. Details have been ironed out, contracts adjusted and terms agreed upon. All that's left is for them to show up, load him, and... say bye.
I think we all know he's most likely not coming back. I gave him an extra carrot this morning. I wonder how long horses remember people. Do you remember the old Black Beauty? I heard the 2020 remake by Disney is AWFUL, but I loved the book and I LOVED the old versions. Although my greatest fear is to find one of my loves like Joe found Beauty in the end. Honestly, it's a nightmare I've had more in the past 3 nights than I care to admit. I mean, how awful would it be if I saved him from that end to only sell him back down the path toward it? Ugh.. I am tearing up just thinking about it right now.
Anyway. He is not Beauty. He is Andi. And we all know that's why I'm keeping the Other horse for the rest of her life.. She would unquestionably end up in bad circumstances. So.. You can only have one Beauty, right? (Although I'm pretty sure she's more the Beast.. LoL) He will be fine.
So, I gave him an extra carrot, stood in the cold frozen slush from our dud storm last night, and... just hung out with my Unicorn. I will miss him. I'm happy for him, but I will miss his downward dog breakfast greetings and steady eddy personality.
