Instead of horse stuff this was called heal thyself week. I came down on Monday with a wicked allergy that turned into a sinus infection that almost meant chest xrays when it detoured south. I took a sick day on Friday and my last sick day was about six or seven years ago when I … Continue reading Another Week Flew By….For Different Reasons

So along with the clinic that was great on Sunday we had an entertaining Saturday. How entertaining? Read on....the gif above will clue you in. So I got some hay from a friend this past weekend for the mini donkeys for the winter months. I figured it was time we cleaned the barn up a … Continue reading Water, Water, Everywhere

I swear I blogged...wait it was a week ago? I have no idea where those days went. Hmm...anyway catch up time!! Buckle up friends it is a long one! https://youtu.be/FnyfKlVw8T0 I had a lesson on Wednesday and it was nice and cool and it was a great lesson. We worked on some combinations and keeping … Continue reading Where Did That Week Go? Lesson and Clinic Recap

So this is a catch all of a post. It has pretty much everything in it. Remus, kittens, donkeys, Gretchen, oh and skunks. Yes skunks. So, I had a lesson last week and though it was hot it went well. I used a different saddle and though I loved it it did not fit Remus … Continue reading Kittens, Donkeys, Gretchen, and Remus! Oh and Skunks too!

Sorry for the delay. As most of you know I had a loss this week of Peeves my cat so my world has been a bit shifted around. The crisis going on as well in the United States and the current state of the world had me think maybe I shouldn't be trivial and post … Continue reading Ulric Equestrian Center Combined Training: We Jump, We Win!

It was a long day. A very long day. But it was fun and the weather was really awesome. Saturday AM was gorgeous aka 70s and sunny with a lovely breeze. By afternoon by the time we jumped, it was 80s but felt hotter. Great. Why can't we jump in the morning?Asking for a friend.  … Continue reading Combined Training Event: Dressage and Then We Wait for Jumping….

What a freaking surreal week this has been. Peeves is not doing great so he has been at the vets. He is back home but honestly I think it may be time. He just looks miserable and has lost so much weight. I wanted to get him home to see if he perked up a … Continue reading No Saddle or Trailer Still…But Now I Have Kittens?

Who would have thunk knowing exactly what saddle I want I can't find one (well I can but I prefer to not pay over 4k for it). I tried a Toulouse yesterday and despised it (I KNEW I WOULD, I was trying to be open minded). It gave me a chair seat and my jumping … Continue reading Saddle Oh Saddle Where Art Thou?

As most of you know I sold my trailer right at the beginning of the pandemic shut down/crazy world shit. A guy pulled up to look at it and offered me cash on the spot. I think this was March 16th as we were not shaking hands even then and we stood our distance. They … Continue reading Pandemic Purging….At Its Finest

Remus and I had another lesson on Friday. Unfortunately I had to change my slot to later in the day due to work so the cool wind blowing at 10 am was hella gone by 1 pm. Sigh. It was hot. It was muggy. There was a breeze still blowing otherwise it would have been … Continue reading Remus Lesson (With Media!): You Fail Some, You Win Some….
