Life’s Mysteries
Holidays are the time to contemplate the great imponderables. Barn Mystery After a blacksmith visit, I use a magnet on a stick to pick up nail bits from our dirt aisle. I do this every time. Why do I always, always find old nails? Cat Mystery While Ghost was recuperating, Blue broke into the ICUContinue reading “Life’s Mysteries”
Gearing Up For the Dark Days
Cold. Unseasonably cold. This is the upside to having pasture ornaments. Go to barn. Pat noses. Tell ’em you will see ’em tomorrow. Or when it thaws. Retreat to house. No competition plans to be delayed. I know, I know, it’s colder where you are. It’s all in what one is used to. Where IContinue reading “Gearing Up For the Dark Days”

They Said It Couldn’t Be Done. Horse Show Version
The shock! The horror! The barn is at a horse show without me. When I said I wasn’t going to this show, no one – not husband, not friend, not instructor – believed me. As this is the first show I have missed since starting saddleseat, I understand their dubiousity. However, I was always prettyContinue reading “They Said It Couldn’t Be Done. Horse Show Version”
