a new year!!

its been a while i know! life has been crazy. I finally got my hands on my dream horse. she is a little too fast and a little too crazy for most but i love her!
She now officially has 30 days under saddle and is doing amazing! we walk, trot canter and back up... move off of seat control... but she needs adjusted.

the new brood mare will arrive in may... I dont get the first baby but the second one is all mine!

IMA wonder lilley is going to be a life long adventure.... so excited to keep you all posted.

now if only i had my own facility so i could start training... man wouldnt that be great?

tuesday on the farm

so today i finally got the phone call I have been waiting for... stress will go down... lives will be happier... I GOT THE JOB! so for those of you wondering... its a caregiving job for the state of Oregon. WOOOO.... is all i have to say!

things have changed here on our little 3 acre piece of property. Miss Zita had to be moved to a bar since her desire to attempt to throw me off in the pasture far outweight the benifits of having her home. She is now enjoying life in her 12x15 stall with daily turn out lol. She is fat and shiny and healthy as an ox! Now if i could just get her front end to catch up to her back end I will have an easier time riding a less downhill filly.

our little baby chickens are now big georgous hens that lay an egg a day! Our ducks i believe both ended up being males... its ok because we love them. They eat the snails.. and in the begining.. the tomatoes... lol...

Well im off to the barn to bug the horse face and make her do stuff she doesnt really want to do.

I hope you have a wonderful night!

man oooooo man

thursday beautiful sunny thursday! where have you been my whole life? ok so yesterday was by far one of the funniest walmart incidents ever in my trekking with beau. He decided i needed to buy him a semi truck toy that seconds as a match box car carrier. he was IN LOVE! so i gave in... i mean why not? what could it hurt?? except my ankles and heals in the middle of the night!

we got up to the cash register and the girl asked him how he was and he responded with " my truck is totally bad ass!" SERIOUSLY??? wow i need to watch my mouth, but how can i be mad at that cuteness?

so far he told the ducks that they are going to taste good with rice and that i needed to shut up and listen to him. OOOOh to be 2 years old again lol.


anywho... zita... the little brat decided a few days ago she didnt want to be worked and kicked out and somehow my stupid self convinced my hand to fling itself up into the flying hooves of destruction and i got kicked in my index finger,(which still hurts,) and my thumb..... MAN O MAN was i angry.

so i worked her until she was dripping sweat and licking her chops like no other. Hopefully i have cured the kick at lacy incident to where it will never happen again.

i havent ridden her in 3 weeks... slacking i know...

so i will get on here tomorrow and blog yet again so you guys can be privy to my life lol!

oh for the love of spring!!!!!!!!!!!

FINALLY!!!!!! spring is here! lets see how long this beautiful weather sticks around.

I have oh so neglected you guys! Alot has happened! spence and i are getting married in 68 days... can you believe that??? sheesh! zita is well started under saddle and going very well concidering she can be a little jerk lol. she does all the finer things under saddle from walk to trot to a very gangly out of controle bumpy ride of a lope hahaha, but hey, she does it!

we picked up a new pony... literally a pony that is on her way to being bred this next week to the crankiest little frustrated miny stud ever.. but they are going to make the sweetest little baby!!

tomorrow i get to put up hotwire to get the pony sectioned so she can graze! she will be happy, and I get to ride my darling zita... ok so maybe im going to work on trailer loading and see what happens... hopefully she will go in my trailer so i dont have to sell it once it is paid off.. ugh .. anywho... back to the daily grind! i will keep everyone posted!

burrrrr

so its december, i have not been on here in a while. lots of things have changed around here! i no longer have vixen. she went down the road to bigger and better things. in her place I procured a red dunn filly. I like her alot but she is in limbo until my bankruptcy clears so they cant take her from me.
beau turned 2 and we had a wonderful party for him! he got soooo many presents!

so the plan is to fix the fences around here and build the coop so i can get some chickens back. plus do some majoy fixing up of the front yard, first thing being trap the dogs in the back yard so my front yard can be beautified!

on a lighter note... my house smells like peaches!
you all have a great day!
peace out!

RIP uncle denny, i love you and miss you terribly

sunshine lollypops and rainbows

well hello everyone! Long time not talk! Alot has been happening in my life... all the way from getting spencer a doby puppy, to actually getting a sliding stop on vixen, its all coming together.
Every day is a challenge when it comes to my horses. Chief is a great gelding, he is willing, but still reserved. He is learning fast. Spencer and him get along great! He loves my mare, and she loves him! He moves off of leg pressure for the most part... still a little sluggish in that respect, but hey at least he tries.






Vixen Vixen vixen, where to begin. So the damn mare knows alot more than she wants to tell me. She spins, she slides, she has an excellent collected canter (when she wishes to paricipate), and her jog is to die for. I just wish I could get her head down without training aids! slow and steady, gerrrr getting impatient here. I have big plans for her, one way or the other i will get her where i want her or i will trade her for something i do want. She is coming around though, finally trusting people, WOW was that a hard road to run down!


We will be moving to pleasant hill in about 3 weeks, give or take a week. The fences suck and there are soooo many black berries its rediculous!

alright, i need to get off of here, I will start posting every day!

peace out homies
