A life with/for/about horses
I will start by saying I’m not a fan of the traditional selfie style photo. The one where you just stretch your arm out with the front facing camera open, and snap the photo. Major dislike. Especially dislike when I see the same person posting basically the exact same selfie photo over, and over, and […]
It’s times like these that I hate plants. You give all plants a bad name!
I’ve been living on at my farm for a while now. I lived on my parents farm as a teenager so I didn’t have the same anxiety when I first moved here that many people did (how will I keep my horse alive?!). However, there’s some things that popped up that surprised me. It’s things […]
It’s important to train at the right moment, or you’ll mess everything up!
Well, the title gave it away, but I’m pleased to announce the fencing around my barn is up! This is an exciting day for me, and therefore, the world. Putting up the second part wasn’t hard. Perhaps it was just the humidity and heat the first time around that made it so miserable. This time, […]

When the digital work is completed, it is printed out on a […]
To continue on from yesterday’s Show Jumping post, we move right on into cross country. Except today I took B and the husband! And then ended up spending most of the time taking care of B, so really, it was a bit difficult to get the pictures and videos that I wanted. Really though, wouldn’t […]
Ah, another year, another Great Meadow International. I believe that’s the saying. I love that Great Meadow hosts so many events, primarily because it’s minutes away from my house. It really makes it convenient when world class competition and events literally come to me. Now that I have B, getting out of the house is […]
Did you ever play horse video games as a kid, dreaming of riding your own horse? The controls were clunky, the graphics poor, and the horse mechanics were often messy, but it was the best you had, so you played it anyway. I used to imagine the button press coinciding with the jump really would […]
