I woke up and realized I was a double-D, not the bra size, I mean that I was feeling the effects of divorce and depression. I did the only thing a cowgirl can do in such a situation. I loaded my horse onto the trailer and went trail riding. This whole trailering thing has given…
With my love of music and dance, I had dreams of competing in the Musical Kur. Unfortunately, I never quite had the right horse. None of them moved like this. The closest I got to this dream was my horse Finian. He was beautiful and certainly athletic enough, but he fought me on everything, every…
At 7 AM Saturday morning, it was 18 degrees. It was feeling like winter again. Back to plugging in the heaters. Tank heater Bucket heater Kitty water bowl heater And barn pump heater The mud froze into a rough, uneven, twisted ankle hazard. But Java was thrilled to find a new cache of poopsicles. Between having…
Last Friday I moved Luke out of his familiar home of the past five years to a new stable. Then Sunday, Steve and I did our first mini-bike tour — riding 56 miles to Carver Park reserve where we camped overnight…
Both dogs went to the vet this morning. Java just needed a heartworm test and to get her nails clipped (as long as we were there). Latte had her third round of puppy shots, plus Bordatella because I hope to put Latte in doggy daycare a couple days a week starting next week. That should…

Paint Girl – Java tries. She really needs a playmate more her size.
Ari – It’s tempting to let her play. My horses aren’t afraid of her and will only warn her if she starts to bug them. The problem comes if she’s ever around other horses. They might try to kick her and the horses’ owners might night be too thrilled either. Some people will shoot a dog that chases their animals.
Lori – I can keep the cat, dog, and one horse, but I can’t afford the board and care of two horses. I’ll keep both until the house sells anyway.
