O! Who's watching your horses while you're gone?
A diligent but slightly ditzy friend, who has done it for the last year but never for more than 3 or 4 days. But she's backed up by a really competent friend. And then my petsitter for the last ten years will be looking out for the little pets. So Im only a tiny bit nervous. Mostly because of the two 30 year old horses. They are rather delicate items and hate their routines messed with. Ive never left for this long without my significant other staying home in charge. A week is longest. But everyone is really good. So Im lucky.
25 1/4 days. Since this is my trade thread, I guess no one will complain about the countdown _________________

Wait, so what's the regular lifespan of a horse?
I actually looked it up yesterday.

Depending on breed, management and environment, the domestic horse today has a life expectancy of 25 to 30 years. It is uncommon, but a few animals live into their 40s and, occasionally, beyond. The oldest verifiable record was "Old Billy," a 19th-century horse that lived to the age of 62.[4] In modern times, Sugar Puff, who had been listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's oldest living pony, died in 2007, aged 56.
