So I have been a bad, bad, blogger. It is not because I don’t have things to talk about…I have plenty! More that I don’t have time to write (because I am too busy playing Frontireville on Facebook). I saw a lot of old friends this weekend when I went to help out at the [...]

I think my horse enjoy’s torturing me…

My horse used to have THE BEST FEET. He was barefoot and happily so for years and years. When my Farrier went MIA a few years ago and Gen went months and months between trims his feet suffered a lot…and I swear they have not been the same since. I have been fighting against his [...]
“He Adores You”

No, unfortunately that quote was not in reference to a nice man (who knew it would be so hard to find a chubby, bald man with facial hair that has a heart of gold), but rather the line was uttered to me on Saturday night about my horse. My friend with the horse I was [...]
Pity Party for 1 please

So yesterday my favorite fun show grounds had a show…and I wasn’t there I hadn’t blogged a lot about going because I think I sort of knew all along that it wasn’t going to work out. I was going to borrow my friends horse for the in hand classes and she was going to ride [...]

I had to share this e-mail exchange from this morning because I know you would appreciate it! Date: Thursday, May 19, 2011, 11:29 AM I just waved to Gen for you. He sends his regards. Tryingtoride On 5/19/11 11:33 AM how can you tell where he is…by this time in the day he clearly has [...]
Jersey Fresh – Part 2
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on May 18, 2011 | 1 Comment »
So as soon as they figured out that I was the backup finish timer I got introduced to the man I would be working with for the day. I think everyone can agree with me that who you volunteer with is probably the difference between a good volunteering day and a bad one. Well I [...]
So I can now say that I have attended a 2 star event.

So this past weekend I did it. I volunteered at an event…and you know what? I actually liked it! Let me start at the beginning of the story. You see, this story starts at 3:45am. I ended up pet sitting at the barn where Gen lives last minute. The barn owner had tried to get [...]
I am ready to jump judge!

So thank you all for making me feel better about being a jump judge Saturday. I am actually looking forward to it now. I think I am properly prepared. There is a 30% chance of showers for most of the day with temps in the mid 60s. I am going to bring a folding chair [...]
Thoughts on Wintec Saddles?
Posted in Dressage, Horse, tagged Horse, horses on May 11, 2011 | 28 Comments »
So riding in a western saddle has been less than ideal. I don’t think it would be so bad if the saddle were not so small, but it is a 16.5″, and I think we can all agree that I am more of an 18″ kind of rider! Since I started riding the Mare I [...]
