*Side note before I start my post. We have a new member of Ridge Farm (where Texas lives). Remember this post here…Well this morning she FINALLY had her baby! Yay! I have a lesson today with my trainer (and one tomorrow with his owner…I am so going to be sore by Wednesday) so I can’t [...]

Holiday’s = No Time For Riding :(
Posted in Dressage, Gennyral, Horse, Texas, tagged Horse, horses on April 12, 2009 | 6 Comments »
So as you all know I was bitching about the rain yesterday…and although it cleared up it was too wet to ride. See this picture of Texas. This is not him trying to forge a river or drink from a pond. This is a picture of the ring yesterday! And this ring was better than [...]
Rain…you better clear up!
Posted in Dressage, Horse, Horse Show, Texas, tagged Horse, horses on April 11, 2009 | 1 Comment »
It is raining right now. Normally I like the rain. Today, however, I wanted a clear day. I need to ride today. Texas and I have only 2 weeks before our first show. And we need every ride we can get in! I know we are not as prepared as most horse/rider teams are, which [...]
Oh to be young and flexiable again.

Texas was a super grump when I went to get him to go for a ride today. All well. His owner didn’t get a chance to get on him last week and we was enjoying his mini vacation. Even before I got on him I walked him around the ring for a bit to work [...]
“Just A Horse” Poem
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on April 9, 2009 | 6 Comments »
I was reading through one of my old GMO news letters and came across this poem I liked so much I had to share. I don’t know who wrote it…it was submitted as Anonymous. Whoever wrote this I think you did a wonderful job. I have been struggling a little bit as of late because [...]
Are we ready to show?
Posted in Dressage, Horse, Horse Show, Texas, tagged Horse, horses on April 8, 2009 | 7 Comments »
So Texas and I have our very first horse show in only 18 days. To be honest, I am starting to think it is a little too soon. Not that I am going to back out. Not by a long shot. I just think I might have been a little gung ho in my decision [...]
Questions About My Blog…Answered
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on April 7, 2009 | 7 Comments »
So I thought it would be fun to answer some of the questions that I often get. I tend to get the same question over and over so I figured this way I could answer the common ones, and also answer any questions you all have for me. Now you can ask ANYTHING you want…but [...]
Delving into Gennyral’s Past…

Guess who this nervous, skinny, almost black horse is? Can you believe it! That is my fat, white pony as a 3 year old after his only win! I know it is my horse for many reasons, but one that makes it obvious is how nervous he is…look at those eyes bugging out of his [...]
And the real winner is…

Here is a picture of my just a handful of my pillow wraps…the ones that were nice and clean because they are fresh out of the laundry. I had fun doing the contest! I really did. I had two people get within 1. Speedysmom guessed 8 and STB Eventer guessed 10. The real answer? 9. [...]
And the winner is…

No One At least not yet. No one guessed the correct number of wraps and bandages in the contest. And no one was like 1 or 2 away either. So instead of giving up I am going to make it easier. And please feel free to guess again, even if you already did so on [...]
