Sorry for the long silence. Work is at a fever pitch now. Like we are almost a month out from conference and I am waiting for my three extra arms to grow in cause I need them by now. UGH. So much work so little time. Also my work laptop pretty much died and nothing … Continue reading Who Wants a Bit of Wine (Whine) Before Lunch? Yes Please…

So I finally got a lesson in. YAY. I rode, yay. My horse was a lazy ass (well not that bad but he was pretty  naughty one way cantering). He of course garnered LOADS OF FANS. (Like unreal the amount of people who fawn over him everywhere he goes.). It was not pretty (no real … Continue reading Back In The Saddle…

Remus had a sleepover night with his new friend, Fidget.  Who is Fidget, you may ask? A very nice Thoroughbred horse heading to the AEC's today. Hillary (Equestrian At Hart) emailed me the other week asking about options for layovers near Memphis as they were driving from TX to KY. And I had a list … Continue reading Visitors In The Night…

So due to bad weather (20 minute away that is it never got here!) my lesson was cancelled last night. There were all sorts of warnings and alerts going on in our area but we had over an 80 percent chance of rain SINCE FRIDAY and we may have had two drops so far. SMH. … Continue reading Schnauzer (and Other Critters) Sunday

Still hot, still muggy, still buggy. But after today it is supposed to be mid-80s all weekend with even a dip into the 60s at night maybe. BE STILL MY HEART.  Fingers crossed it happens or  I am going to be one mad person. I let Remus out at 6:20 this morning. It was 75 … Continue reading The Life of a (Fat) Buckskin Is So Hard

Yes we are melting. Yes it is humid. Yes the bugs are still not nice. Yes Remus has about ten fans on him most of the time.  Some things never change. In a few months I will be bitching about cold and mud probably but for now, nope it is hot. I have a farmer's … Continue reading Hot Times in the Country!

Everyone think good thoughts for Gretchen. We did a cytology on her bump on her side. I took her in for a check up and we decided to check it out since it is growing. She is also down to 15 pounds so that isn't good. I am hoping we figure out what is going … Continue reading Schnauzer Sunday

Remus has turned into a fat buckskin turnip that sits in front of his fan all day. I am not much better despite starting to work out more, I still sit in front of this monitor most days due to work and blogging. The bugs are bad, the heat is still bad (though we had … Continue reading I Have Had Enough: Time to Get Going

Things never seem to go to plan lately. Schnauzer Saturday or Sunday didn't happen just because we were so busy. And sometimes I just wonder what it would be like some days to have my horse at a boarding barn so the actual riding COULD happen? Yeah that is what I dream about some nights. … Continue reading Sometimes I Just Wonder

We have had a shit ton of rain the last few days. It is really bad. And still hot so it is just moist wet ground and air. ICK. Fun times in Tennessee right? The farrier came by on Wednesday and managed to fix Remus's foot up at least to usable status I hope. I … Continue reading Fix A Flat(Hoof)
