Blogger Birthdays
Wouldn't it be nice to have a calendar with your favorite blogger's birthdays noted on it?
Well, someone out there, figure out how to do it and publish it!!!!
I'm not that bright!
But, April 1st is Helen's birthday. It is also my horse, Petey's birthday. (He is the guy on the upper left there - cute little APHA you think - until he bucks you off!)
My birthday is coming up, and I bought myself this.
My Petey, the pretty little horse up there, and I have some problems with each other. I have been afraid to ride him like I can ride Willey, and I want to fix that.
So, I'm going to start from scratch with him. The Parelli System teaches 'Natural Horsemanship". It is an entirely kind way to bond with your horse. The kit should come tomorrow. I can't wait. I am taking off tomorrow and Friday, and I plan on spending a lot of it with Petey my problem horse and the Parelli stuff.
I don't know how many of you are horse lovers. And frankly, I don't care :-)
I'll take my camera with me tomorrow and take some pretty pictures of my pretty paint pony.
I have been avoiding the barn for months - for several reasons. John has been taking care of the horses for me. I am determined to go there as often as I can from now on, and to ignore the snobby horse bitches, and just go there to be with my horses.

Looks like a great kit!
I had the most fun of my life breaking Toffee - got her at 1 1/2, halter broke. We learned together, and I took her on a trail ride only a few months after starting... but I had to tie ribbons to both her forelock and tail - she wasn't happy with the other horses!
She was a great horse, and would try most anything for me, short of jumping over the largest stream. When I think of the forests we went through at a flat run I wonder why one or both of us didn't perish because of my youthful stupidity... ;)

Well, only 1/2 of the kit got delivered this morning by Fedex. Darn it! I took off today and tomorrow so I could start on this program, and the part I need from the get go is missing!
I called FedEx and the last they know of that shipment is that it made it to the airport in New Mexico - a long way from Leavenworth, KS!
So I'm waiting for them to call me with an explanation as to where it is. Darn!
