Saturday I was determined to go ride and dragged my hubby out to video. Poor guy never gets made to go to the barn so I was like it is gorgeous out you need fresh air come with me. He actually enjoys Remus and treats him like a big dog (Mark is not that comfy … Continue reading We Rode and We Didn’t Nod Off From Boredom!

Update: I am not going to haul out for the lesson but my vet got back to me and assured me that I would be fine hauling out for a lesson as long as I am careful and not going to barns that are under quarantine. BUT anyway I have already told Sally I wasn't … Continue reading EHV-1/EHM Case at New Bolton: What Would You Do?

We got decent temps on Tuesday (low 40s!!) before a snowstorm was coming through on Wednesday so I cut out of work early Tuesday to go see my horse.

But what I did get bombed by was the dreaded FLU! … Continue reading The Bomb Cyclone Storm Was Not a Big Deal For Me: The Flu However Was

WARNING: Heavy media in this blog post. SO MUCH video, so much! YAY. Can your butt actually freeze? Possibly. It took like four hours for my ass to unfreeze after my lesson and I had long underwear on and lined breeches. Jeez.  I was actually okay riding (not too cold) in my lesson but if … Continue reading You’re as Cold as Ice: Dressage Lesson with Emily!

Can you believe I never owned a pair of casual boots before? Besides my purple muck boots and of course my paddock boots and riding boots. Nope. I thought it was a trend and it was nuts to pay for boots you don't really ride in but then my feet are ALWAYS COLD. So on … Continue reading How I Finally Bought Casual Boots!

I got home from running errands on Wednesday and had a couple packages on my doorstep. One was a tote bag I had gotten for my trainer at the gym which unfortunately was delayed in shipping so got here after Christmas (from Zappos, so CUTE isnt it?). My gym is a huge part of my … Continue reading Grateful Musings at the End of 2017!
