So the torrential rain and over 10 (YES TEN) inches of rain we got last week ensured my lesson was cancelled. ACTUALLY they never cancelled but I did end up not going and there is no way they were going to have lessons in that muck and mess. It was cold and chilly and deluge … Continue reading The Agony of Defeat (The Feet!)

The inlaws are heading back to Nashville Airport to fly home today. My husband is taking them (thank you Mark!) on his own so somehow I ended up being home alone with my dogs. Heaven!! 🙂 Considering Mark's back of the truck was full with luggage and there was a suitcase in the other back … Continue reading Schnauzer Sunday is Back!

Crazy ass weather, we have rain in forecast tomorrow and Thursday (bye-bye lesson probably) and had torrential rain the past weekend. But for some reason even though the forecast for the last two days has shown up to at least 70 and partly sunny, we haven't seen the sun once or had the temps get … Continue reading Forecast Fun (Not)!

So we are still in the grips of the inlaw's visit. Whohoo, fun for all (yes that is sarcasm!). The weather has been gorgeous but I haven't ridden. Partly because of work, partly because I am still exhausted, partly because we have visitors. Ehh. Remus doesn't care. He is in love with his neighbors so … Continue reading Boring Here Right Now But a Show (and a Lesson) is on the Horizon!

Remus has neighbors again. The next door neighbor moved his horses back to his field by our house. So my horse first lost his shit then got excited to see horses again. Look up the term Remus in the dictionary and you will see 'special' in italics. 🙂 Not the brightest crayon in the box … Continue reading Remus Has Neighbors Again!

SO, SO TIRED FROM MY WORK WEEK AWAY. But I survived. Even if my feet still hurt from the concrete under the carpets at the conference center (I started work at 6 am and most nights didn't get back to my hotel room from work til 7-7:30) and my abs hurt from laughing (we laughed … Continue reading I Am Back (From NOLA) and Lesson Time!

The weekend flew by and I leave for New Orleans tomorrow morning so this is going to be it for the week! I totally missed posting the Schnauzer Sunday so am doing this now. 🙂 How cute are those guys? They are being kenneled the first part of this week due to Mark working all … Continue reading Schnauzer Sunday (Late!) and Media Monday!

Today I woke up and it felt like FALL! It was crisp and cool and even now at 3:16 PM REMUS is out in the field, grazing. Loving this. We hauled out for a lesson this morning and it was a good one! The first few jumps we were out of sync and just not … Continue reading Lesson Today, Horse Show Tomorrow!

So Ollie and his love affair for all things orange (that move) continues. He even runs to the tractor but can't figure out how to get on that. But I took him for a ride on the Kubota, down the road the other day, and videoed his delight in being in the breeze. Then Mark … Continue reading Ollie the Breeze

So Remus and I went to the show on Saturday. It was a combined training series show that we went to in June. They have one more and hopefully they move to November so I can attend it and then maybe we can qualify for the championships since we now won 2 of them (ha … Continue reading We Lived, We Jumped, We Didn’t Die!
