Holy mackerel! A post actually about riding! I don't think I've done one of these in months! Because I haven't ridden in months! Yes, what I said in the previous sentence is true. I haven't ridden since I started my new job, because I don't have lights at home, and it's dark all the time. On the weekends, it seems unfair to work the ho[...]
This was our first stop. We only had from 7am to 1:30pm to explore. We had no excursions planned, we simply walked off, and starting looking around town. There are many shops right by the pier, from the straw market and tourist souvenirs to high-end luxury brands, screaming out their "Duty-free" status. There's a public beach about a 1[...]
Despite my earlier stance that cruises are terrible and I'll never go on another one, I ended up on another cruise. Except I justify this by saying that it was (mostly) paid for, and Dave's entire family was going on it. It was a family reunion of sorts. We were booked on the largest cruise ship in the world, the Titanic. Just kidding, i[...]
The lovely Sarah, from A Soft Spot for the Stars, is having the most wonderful bloghop, and I'm loving reading about people's locations. Here's mine! I live in Northern Virginia, in the general area of Middleburg. It's horse country here, but has the advantage/disadvantage of being close to DC. A huge portion of people from the city wh[...]
Forgive my slowness, my spirit animal is the sloth. I'm feeling more energized this morning, so it's time to award the most fabulous prize of a 52 onions, or things that look like onions!! Since I've ended up super busy even when I get home from work, I've decided just to push through and do this from work. This means I won't be doing[...]
It's that time of year again - the time when people lose their minds for black Friday deals. As someone who absolutely loathes shopping, I'd like to share with you something that has gotten me through these obnoxious times. You don't need it. You really don't. Sure, it's the latest trendy bridle, or a saddle pad that will perfectly mat[...]
Well, it's about time I posted about this! It took place November 4th... that was quite a while ago. Almost feels like years ago at this point... But I am trying to play catch up here, so here we are. This is the super amazing bloggers Shelby and D'Arcy, and additionally my lovely, wonderful friend who is not a blogger, but has bee[...]
To thank you all for hopefully continuing to check out my blog in hopes that I'm going to update, or those who will still click on it if it pops up in their blog reader, I've decided to host another giveaway: The Holiday Onion Extravaganza!!!! I was talking to Dave the other day, asking him to pick up some groceries, and I adde[...]
Before we go back in time, this weekend, I managed to have my car break down in DC. Ever the gracious wife, I agreed to a quick trip to DC to reset some computer equipment. I offered to just circle the block, but Dave insisted we just park. So I park, but then when I realized I parked illegally, I tried to start the car to move it, a[...]
If you're wondering why I put up posts at a snail's pace, it's because I have a new job. It's a pretty awesome job, but I end up having very little free time. When I get home, I either want to fall asleep, or just become comatose. Dave, understanding my exhaustion, has been offering to take care of the horses at night. I thought that was[...]
