Work: day off. Report: I’m gonna be burning down a house. No worries, the conflagration less lyrical, more legal. The bag in question holds my turnout gear. Cute horse and fire anecdote: We were on a brushfire, which is a small, tame, domestic version of a woodland fire. Usually someone is burning trash and “leftContinue reading “Here’s Your Ticket, Pack Your Bags”

Numbers Game
Work: PM therapy/EVE grooming scheduled, even likely. Report: The day to dive into our new schooling program was not today. Spring advances and retreats. As do I. Ramblings: The delayed appearance of February’s end of the month ponderings on blogging. In order to keep up with a daily blog, I need to follow the inspirationContinue reading “Numbers Game”
Where To?
Work: PM therapy/EVE rain. Report: Jumps & exercises relocated around the field, per plan. Now I just have to get my a. in g. early enough to fit in two sessions each day. Daylight Saving Time should help. [BTW, DST is run by the DOT, of all people.] Ramblings for the Day: Self-help gurus andContinue reading “Where To?”

Ramblings for the Day: My generous Guest Poster from Wednesday, Writing from the Right Side of the Stall, wrote about the similarities between onlineContinue reading “Putting Myself Out There … On Horseback.”
Countdown
Work: Day off Ramblings: I am spending the day at a bookmaking workshop. A liberal arts education and a fervid imagination have allowed me to combine book arts and LEGO [I made a book out of bricks] as well as LEGO and horses [see BrickFair posts in January]. Even I can’t figure a way toContinue reading “Countdown”
Changes for the Better?
Work: PM heat/EVE groom. Report: During a two-lap mare walk, Rodney spent the entire time outside. Mostly, he ate hay. As we hove into sight at the end of the second lap, he drifted on our direction and grazed. Neither hiding nor herd-bound would be the best result. Ramblings for the Day: In addition toContinue reading “Changes for the Better?”
