Sometimes when I am writing this I wonder who is reading my words? Do they think I am stupid for doing this? Are they bored listening to my problems? Yesterday was a low day, but today started out a good day with support from those of you who get my humor, and my passion for the horses. [...]
My day started out with an email that upset me all day. I know I should let some things go, but when someone says something negative about a project that is near and dear to my heart it is hard to just say “Oh Well”. I came down to the barn in a not so happy [...]
I woke up to snow, and if anyone has looked at our website you would know why that is a big deal. To make things worse, Jason has Thursdays off, but Lalo also knows how to clean the driveway and in a pinch, I can do it. By the end of the day, AFTER Lalo [...]
I had a dream, I knew someday we would achieve that dream and today we did. Every single treasure had their teeth floated and whatever else they needed. As many of you could guess, these horses have not had their teeth done in years, and about half had cut cheeks from their sharp teeth. Every [...]
As most of you know, my husband Mark had emergency surgery last night. I am happy to report that he should be coming home tomorrow. He had great doctors and our friend and customer, Dr. M kept in touch with Mark’s health updates. It is really nice to know sooo many people were interested in [...]

I do not know where everyone else lives, but here it was rainy/icey, but mostly rain and very gloomy. I will not be sleeping late tomorrow (my day off) as we are going to pick up a couple of horses at the sale. Pat says I can not count as I always bring home more horses [...]
As I predicted it was a busy day in the barn. Dr. M had a GREAT ride on her gaited mare Sofie and good rides on all of her horses for that fact. We have been working hard to get the pair a TEAM and we are getting closer to that goal. There were a [...]
Hooray for another boring day in the barn! Last night before I fell asleep, I started thinking about what in the heck I would write about today. While in bed waiting, waiting, waiting to fall asleep, I started thinking about why I could not go to sleep. First I can not stand ANY strange noises or [...]
I am trying to write early so I can get to bed at a more normal time. Today was catch-up day in the barn. Saying “barn” brings me back to a memory of when I was in my first year of college at Lindenwood (that was like a hundred years ago). Fern Bittner ran the [...]
