Did you know that a Prius can hit 101mph?
It can when you get a call in the middle of class that your horse, 40 minutes away, is colicking!
Sarge is fine, now, thankfully. Hopefully, he'll . . .

This spring is bringing some exciting changes. One of 'em is happening this week-- I'm moving Sarge to a different barn.
This was a pretty flip-floppy sort of decision. Originally, my friend . . .

So, yesterday we moved Sarge and two of his friends. It went really well! I skipped two classes to do so (I can make up the work, and I wasn't going to miss being there) and met Kat (who, with her . . .

It was an early morning. Too early, for me, but that's to be expected on a horse show day. I woke my mom, and we readied ourselves. Breeches, boots, show shirt... make sure not to forget the helmet, gloves, . . .

My friend Kate, who has her three horses (War Bandit, Lefty and Scotch) with Sarge, invited me to use one of her horses to go on a rail ride last weekend, with Mike, who has a trailering business and . . .

On Saturday, a group of people from the barn were planning on bringing their horses to Island Beach State Park in NJ for some trail riding along the beach. I decided that it would be good to bring Sarge, . . .

This is not the kind of update I wanted to be writing for Sarge.
For those who don't know, Sergeant Pepper is the almost-a-yearling horse that I'm working with at school. I'm hoping to . . .

Proof that animals really do run my life...
Starring Tuxey, the Barn Cat.
It started out when I went to sit in my car and eat my granola bar. Tuxey followed me over, and climbed right . . .

So, on the 16th, I had another show with Atticus, the horse I've been riding a lot lately. We'd shown the week before, as well, and gotten Grand Champion , but I'll admit it was raining for that show, . . .

I took Jacob to meet Sarge for the first time yesterday and got some cute photos... I figured I'd share them :)
"Ooh, what's this? Another human with a tasty camera?"
Awww . . .

Here's Part II of the last horse show of the season.
When I left off in Part I, Atticus was being grumpy about slowing down to pause between our second course and its Jump Off. Then they sounded . . .

There are moments where life is utterly perfect.
I walked into the barn tonight to turn lights off. Most of the horses were laying down in their stalls, sleeping. Sergeant Pepper woke up, and saw . . .

Well, a lot of the yearlings didn't sell at the auction, Shivna included. The economy just isn't a good one for buying a horse...
Under better circumstances, I don't think anyone . . .

I had my last horse show of the year on November 7th. It was cold, so I don't really mind that it'll be the last until spring rolls around, but I've been having a blast showing Atticus, so I'll miss that . . .

I've been promising this photoessay for a while, but I finally grabbed the scorecard from the barn and scanned it in, woo!
In any case, I'd been practicing with Sarge, and the day before, he'd gotten . . .

I feed at Sarge's, usually once a week. I'm on the 'breakfast shift'. Care to come along with me?
Upon opening the barn door, the sight of hungry horses greets my eyes.

I finished up the week with an exam on Wednesday, then a really long day Thursday and an early morning today. Thursday morning was spent at the school-barn for half of the low-dose oral dextrose (glucose) . . .

So, yesterday was my first horse show on a different horse- Atticus. I haven't ridden him too much lately, but I've really clicked with him and he's a lot of fun. I was nervous, at first, but the day . . .

Yesterday, I spent a lot of time at the barn.
In the morning, I fed all of the horses. The barn is a co-op barn, so we take turns with the feedings and such, and I usually handle the Friday morning . . .

I'd originally posted this to my online journal, but I figured it would amuse a few of you guys, too! He's been on a rampage...
Sarge broke another halter yesterday! Now, I only use the . . .
