P E A C E....

     Ahhhh....  I had the best, most peaceful session ever night before last...  Since the barn isn't quite up, yet, I brought him onto the back porch for a nice grooming session, some stretches, and UDT...  I feel so bad because I can't remember the last time I had just 'hung' with him and groomed him :(.  I had some music on too!  It was mostly Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban, Jonny Diaz, Classical, and some really relaxing Scottish music...

     We played with stretches and he loved them!  He caught on really fast!  I think I'm glad I did that session...  I think I'm going to *try* to do it every night...

     On a different note I'm redoing my blog, again.  It's going to stay 'pretty much' the same I'm just putting the NavBar in it's own column, messing with the header a bit, adding a special watermark to about everything, and just playing around with it a bit :).

Undemanding Time with Toby

Sooooo I just got in from having some undemanding time with Toby and I had some fun :).  Me and my sibs were chattin' away and Toby was eating his hay :).  So peaceful!  I probably won't be posting much because I'm sick :(.  So I'll update when I feel better and am allowed to work with the horses!  :}

Jumping and Cavelletti

Hi!  I rode Sonny the other day and we did some cavelletti plus at the end of the cavelletti, 20-30ft away, I set up a 11/2-2ft jump.  My mom recorded it but I am still trying to figure out how to download it onto my computer:)!
  I haven't worked w/ Red much except I did work on his walking shoulder to shoulder w/ me, staying out of my space, UDT, the porcupine game, and the driving game.
  Sonny and me have been working on Stick-2-me, porcupine game, driving game, yo-yo game, the sideways game, and a lot of UDT:)!

A Flash of the Obvious and some drama...

Hey!  What's up?  I for was NOT doing so well the past couple months or so, I was depressed and stressed out......  Not Fun!  I am a VERY private person and DO NOT tell anyone if somethings wrong.  Well, w/all the stress of everything it has REALLY been wearing me down and last night I'd HAD IT!!!  I burst into tears (so unlike me) and got REALLY mad at everyone because there had been a misunderstanding and that was THE LAST string.  But I got everything I needed to off my chest and I also figured some things out.  Like I haven't been working w/the horses lately because I would just get SO frustrated w/them and the session would end up in the tank.  But after I got everything off my chest I figured out the reason why everything was going in the tank.  I spent NO time just moseying around and letting him graze and spending some UDT (undemanding time) w/them.  Last night I spent UDT w/him and I have ALREADY noticed a change in him (Sonny)!!!  I am so excited now I actually enjoy going out there (I used to hate it...) because  we are no longer irritated w/each other....  I know it has only been a day but I REALLY HAVE noticed a change on both of our parts.  Well I'm done now w/ my FOB (Flash of the Obvious) : - P

A Good Poem...

When you run so fast to get somewhere
you miss half the fun of getting there
if you worry and hurry through your day
it's like an unopened gift
thrown away
Life is not a race
Do take is slower
hear the music
before the song is over."
