I am writing this a little early so that my mind can stop “thinking” before I go to bed. Sometimes after I write I cannot shut off my brain and I lay there in bed thinking of what I could post or maybe what I should have posted. Tonight I am going to try a different [...]
I am sorry but it seems I am getting older. It took me two days to recoup from the horse show we went to. There were two main reasons, the first being I had a brilliant idea to drive home AFTER the show on Saturday night, which means we did not get home until 4 [...]
I know, I know I skipped a day. I was going to write but I started talking to a friend right before I was going to write and we got off the phone at 1 am, by then I was tired. As I said earlier, we were going to have a youth group event and [...]
Oh boy, it is raining. I guess we need it, but now we will have mud in the pastures. I decided to write early because the show Mark and I were watching made me nervous. It is a TIVO’d CSI NY and it is about a prison break. I finally just got up because I was [...]
Today should have been a great day……. nice weather, horses, horses , horses but sadly one thing made my day awful. One of my treasured school horses had to be put down. I knew this was coming and I almost backed out. The truth is the horse would have lived in a stall and would [...]
It seems like a year since I have written, but it also seems like I just wrote. I know that seems kind of dumb, but my week has been a whirlwind of hectic horse showing. A week ago, Jason and I started hauling horses to our first show and we each had to make 2 [...]
Today was my day off and I got to do my favorite day-off thing……………. go to the sale and get Saddlebreds. As I said earlier, we (North Wind Stables) needed to buy a new horse trailer and today was the day to pick it up. Since we are also getting ready for the show season, I [...]
Yesterday my day started out kind of not so great. Today started out with a phone call and it was VERY different from the day before. Before I answered the phone I looked at the caller ID and I could see that the call was from Washington (the state). I did not think I really [...]
I wondered when the peace and calm would end and something would wake me up into the real world where things go wrong, and today was that day. Mark got an early call in the morning informing us that my old trailer was about to give it up. This was my first trailer that I [...]
Tonight I have a different thought for you all. While driving to Missouri I got to thinking (not always a good thing) about how much we will do for the horses. I am almost obsessed about horses, and my family is also horse crazy. I sometimes think it is like a religion. Then I thought, [...]
