My Big Beautiful Warmblood (an update)

Stu has been in training for over a year now. My, how time flies when I spent most of it laying sick in bed! But I had the cause of my sickness forcibly evicted, so that part is behind me. Let's look ahead to the future. Wait no, we aren't looking ahead yet - we are looking at how Stu is doing now![...]

An Attitude Adjustment

A few weeks after I birthed the twins, my Pony came back from lease. The trainer said he was the world's best pony and he was wonderful, but she wasn't getting enough business to justify keeping him. That's fine, I took him right back. When he got back, I was surprised to find him more assertive th[...]

Would You Clone Your Horse?

We all have that one horse that really moves us. They are our friend, our partner, and our best teammate. It can seem like they are so in tune with what we want, they know what we want before we've told them. This is such a common thing in horse world that we even have a name for it: our "Heart Hor[...]

A Pony’s Life

After spending most of last year as a lesson pony, Pony has returned to me.  My understanding was that he was the world's best pony at his lesson barn. I'm not sure of the exact details though. I really should have asked though. If there's one thing I love, it's hearing how great my pon[...]

Life with the Twins

They have arrived. After so many months, starting with constant sickness and misery, and ending with constantly being uncomfortable, they are here. It's been over a month now, and I finally have the energy and time to write this, early in the morning, while all the kids are still sleeping.  Pr[...]

Onward to Fall

Things have been pretty quiet around here. There's not a whole lot I can do, now that I'm the size of a small whale. Since there's twins in there, I already look like a full term pregnant woman. And I still have over a month left.  This is trying for a flattering pose. Most of the time I'm[...]

Broodmare

Back to Work – Pony Gets a Job

Another big update on the farm: Pony Man has a job! I am thrilled that he will finally be doing something, but the sad part is that it isn't with me. I leased him to a lesson/training barn, and he's going to be a lesson pony.  Puffing himself up to impress the ladies It was hard to let h[...]
