So this weekend Gen got his wennie cleaned (I know Jackie…I am going to get all sorts of crazy google search hits). I have to clean Gen’s sheath 4 times a year…twice as much as usual. And of course my horse is shy and wont let it all hang out so it is a real [...]

Saturday was a very good day for Gen. Why? Because it was the first time in a long time that it was warm enough for him to go outside naked! My horse loves to be nakie! He hates the fact that I make him wear jackets all winter long. If he could grow a freaking [...]

So after my crazy day at work yesterday I only had time to do one horse…so of course I went to see Gen instead of riding. Gen will always been number 1 in my book. It would have been nice to ride though. I had been wanting a lesson today with either trainer, but my [...]
Our First Really Good Ride
Posted in Horse, Texas, tagged Horse, horses on March 7, 2009 | 1 Comment »
So yesterday I wasn’t sure if I was going to ride. There was a huge snow storm here on Monday and so I knew that even with the warm temperatures the ring probably wouldn’t be the best. I asked his owner mid day if she thought it was worth it for me to come out [...]

So My advice column idea didn’t seem to go over very big. I loved Grey Horse Matters idea of turning it into a blog of its own, but considering I only got 2 responses after all these months I don’t think you all are that into this idea. I am going to leave it open [...]

So as you all know I was totally bummed out yesterday. I had big dreams for myself and Texas this year and dreams and reality do not always match up. I was upset about everything since my ride on Saturday. And I didn’t get out of my funk until Monday. You know what helped me [...]

I have made no secret about my love of showing. Or my love of ribbons. I never was allowed to show growing up, so for me it is something that I not only want to do, but that I really enjoy doing. That is why it is important for me to be able to show [...]
