Take it like a real woman Zenyatta

I am grateful for the wonderful diversity of the seasons in my part of the world.

For the beautiful splash of color in the fall, the softness of the snow in winter, the tenderness of new life of spring and the carefree days of summer.

Well I am disappointed that Zenyatta did not win first place on Saturday, but she sure put her heart into second place.
I thought she was gonna make it.
Beat by 1/2 a head.
That's the way it goes.

From what I learned about Zenyatta this week, she loved being herself, happy just being, wherever she was. She spent yesterday just cooling it around the grounds while all the hoopla was going on.

She ran second and she was as proud after the race as she was before.

I have been reading Proverbs and I pray for wisdom.
Winning first place isn't everything.

Zenyatta is a wise ole gal.

I guess I am a feminist. I must admit one of the reasons I wanted her to win was she was the only female against the males.
But, after all, for me, it takes nothing away from her.

There is nothing more beautiful than a Woman Of Wisdom.

I said if she won I would put her on my header.
She is on my header anyway.

Zenyatta, a Queen of a Horse

Kentucky is thoroughbred land.

We are used to seeing and hearing about amazing

horses.

But this one is on a fairyland story path.

 I have fallen in love  with this piece of horseflesh.

She will run in the Breeder's Cup Saturday at

Churchill Downs.

19 wins out of 19 races.

Her name, Zenyatta, first caught my attention.

I love anything exotic sounding, so I started following her story.

When you see an athlete run like this, it can only make your heart sing.
Wow I wish I could go. 
No tickets left to get in and I can't afford the kind of seat I need. LOL
Boy I will be glued to the TV on Saturday.
If she wins, she will be on my header by Sunday.

Go Girl.


I am grateful today that I am able to finally sit up for longer periods of time.
Went about my usual activities today.
WooHoo
