As a crusty old coworker used to tell me weekly - "Ain't nothin worse than people". #spoton
I'm 22 years into ownership of a 29 year old horse. I can't imagine just walking away from her. I'll probably be one of those who spends whatever it takes to keep her here with me, but she's "healthy as a horse" for the time being. I can't imagine my life without her. Don't even want to think about it.
