It has been raining me out recently. She is still being brought out every day to brush, pet, feed grain, lead, etc. but no riding. It is just too muddy and slippery to risk injury. She did very well the last time I rode. Her steering has greatly improved and she is much more willing to go over anything with me on her back now. Friday will be the next day on her back. Can’t wait. I want my daughter to start riding her!

How I did it: I grew out my hair and had it cut off lol. I did not ever use any styling gels or sprays, no blow drying, no bleaching, etc. I wanted my hair to be as healthy as can be so it would be of use. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I kept pressing play lol. It was a good workout and I found it easy to follow as long as I rested when I was supposed to, and ate the nutrition I needed. Towards the end, time constraints started making it hard. Never skip the warm up or cool down!!!! They are just as important as the workout. Without them, you may get hurt, hurt longer, and dread the workouts. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Lots of work but I am marking this done. Now doing p90x also. In my 7th week. I originally read and followed the "Never Gymless" book by Ross Enamait. It was a very good help. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
Went for a good ride today. I let my daughter ride for 5 minutes since it will be her horse as soon as I am done. After that, I rode the horse for 20 minutes. We went through the field, up the road, past a field of horses, down around the pond, and around our circle drive a few times. She does not steer the best yet, but she is learning and acts like she wants to learn. A couple more weeks and I will call this done. Then my daughter will be riding Lady every day.
Oh, we also got money for a new Dr. Cooks bitless bridle for Lady. My Grandma sent us the money for Christmas :) Now I don’t have to share mine lol.
Had some turkeys to sell after work so I got home late and have to go in on another job at 9pm till morning. That kind of cut into my time today. It was almost dark when I got home. Still did a little though.
I cleaned her hooves, lunged her, worked on cues from the ground, and brushed her out. The rest of the time I just pet her and hung around with her like a dog lol.
Tomorrow we go on another ride.
