I’m really glad it’s Friday. Too bad I have so much work to do that I really should come into the office this weekend. Mmmmmm . . . maybe not.
I like my farrier. He is always on-time (early, actually), efficient and does a good job. He’s not always sociable but that’s OK because frankly, I don’t [...]

Puppies and Stuff

I’ve been dying to get a new dog. But, we already have two dogs, three kids and a horse, plus full-time jobs. So, not really the best time. Yesterday we had a client in our office with his four month old yellow Lab. Awwwwww! I started reminiscing about my dogs, the past, etc. and went [...]
Funk

Oregon Winter. The time after the holidays but before Spring. Always makes you want to hibernate, doesn’t it. I’ve been in a bit of a funk and have noticed a lot of other bloggers in the same place. I imagine everyone is doing what I’m doing on a daily basis: 1. Drag yourself out of [...]

I’m not recovered from my Nightmare Birthday yet, but I’m getting close.
Good news! I sold my grass hay for the price I was asking which means I only lost about $35 on the whole deal.
Bad news. Brig still doesn’t have a ride to the new barn. I may have to ride him there myself. He [...]
Worst Birthday EVER

I’m really not a Birthday Diva, but this is the worst birthday on record for me.
J asked to postpone my birthday until next Saturday because he didn’t have any money (and I think he forgot). I said it was fine. The gift thing is always an uncomfortable event because the only things I want have to do [...]
It’s Official!

Brig is a dressage horse.
I banged his tail today. He looks super cute. Just like the horses in the Reiner Klimke videos J got me for Christmas. I got through one and a half of those DVDs this morning until the kids got bored and silly and tried speaking with German accents. Admittedly, I’d had [...]
Favorite Horse Movie(s)

Jewel over at Viva Volte!!! tagged me so I would spill the beans about my favorite horse movie of all time.
Like everything, I can’t pick just one, so I’ll give you two.
My first favorite move is Phar Lap. I watched this movie over and over when I was a kid and bawled like a baby [...]
I HATE Depending on Other People

When I found out I was moving Brig, one of my fellow boarders (one of the three that I actually like and trust) offered to move him for me. I accepted her offer and told her I’d pay for her gas and time (naturally). She was even going to take the day off of work [...]
Random Stuff Like Saddles, Browbands, Shows, etc.

I’m still waiting for more feed back. What if I promise a used, hunter green, all purpose, square pad (originally $10) to one random poster who posts their horses’ diet(s) in the comments section? You have to live within driving distance — like 15 minutes — and when I deliver it, I’ll take you to lunch [...]
While I’m Waiting . . .

While I’m waiting for more comments on my last blog regarding Equine Nutrition (hint, hint) I will take a moment to tell you all how excited I am to be changing barns in just under three weeks.
Last night I walked into the barn and when I got to the end of the aisle, two loose horses, [...]
