Miracle Pony
I think Amber is part cat. I swear she has 9 lives. Either way, I’m gonna do a (kind of) small recap. In June 2012, I bought Amber as a 2yr old and brought her home with me. July 2012, Amber got out of… Continue Reading “Miracle Pony”
And the good news is…
Sorry for leaving you guys hanging! I attended the Women’s Leadership Conference or WLC in Vegas this year, and left on Sunday. I thought I may still have time to blog buuuuuuut apparently not haha. It was really good though, and I highly recommend… Continue Reading “And the good news is…”
Another check-up
Amber got another check up Tuesday. It’s meh news. Her foot doesn’t look better. Compared to our last set of x-rays, it looks worse. She doesn’t have as much sole growth, and she’s rolling to the outside of her foot and collapsing the heel… Continue Reading “Another check-up”
7 Years
Facebook kindly reminded me that 7 years ago today was when I bought Amber. It would take another 2 weeks before I could actually get her from her new home in Steamboat Springs, but when the owners offered her back to me, that was… Continue Reading “7 Years”
Escape artist
This happened maybe 2 or so months ago, and I’d meant to post it but forgot. I suppose I can hardly call her an escape artist when there is no chain or latch for her to undo, but she’s still smart. I hang the… Continue Reading “Escape artist”
#TBT – Amber freejumping
Turns out my mom got photos of Amber free jumping herself when she was about 4-ish. No kidding – Amber just sent herself to the jumps. And you can see there’s no guard rails to even keep her in a chute lol. She just… Continue Reading “#TBT – Amber freejumping”
Birthday Weekend/Week-ish
Saturday was my birthday, so I had a bit of a birthday week last week. I went hiking on Wednesday. I took Friday off of work. I bought myself some clothes I’ve been eyeing on Amazon. I got Amber and I some tack (because… Continue Reading “Birthday Weekend/Week-ish”
Some days we play
While I’m hopeful that maybe Amber and I can putz around again with a bit of walk/trot/canter, I’m okay if we can’t do more than that, like western dressage or something. I’ll be sad for sure, because after nearly 8 years together, all of… Continue Reading “Some days we play”
Time Frame
Well, nothing remotely interesting has been happening at all, except perhaps the amazing weather. Vegas is usually 7-8 months of summer, 3-4 months of winter, and 2 weeks each of fall and spring. We’re actually seeming to get a taste of fall this year!… Continue Reading “Time Frame”
FINALLY some good news
Yes you read that right! We’ve got some good news! Or at least better news, but I’m going to take it. It’s been very hard for me to watch Amber being unhappy, and simply for her sanity as well as how much that RH… Continue Reading “FINALLY some good news”
The best things come from unlikely places
Lately, it feels that everything has just been….difficult. Piling on. Now that I’m not riding consistently, I’m REALLY trying to get any doctor visits I need out of the way so I can keep staying healthy and fix as well as I can any previous injuries that need… Continue Reading “The best things come from unlikely places”
Rest and relaxation
This weekend was definitely nice to rest and relax. I actually forgot that Friday was Amber’s birthday – she officially turned 8! I can’t believe she’s 8 already. Such a grown up girl! So, I made sure she at least got a really delicious… Continue Reading “Rest and relaxation”
Friday rambles (actually just pictures)
Well, I was going to have a different post ready for today, in which I forgot. Because it’s been that kind of week haha. So, have fun with a bunch of random pictures from this week haha. Happy Friday all!
Easter Weekend
Was a blast. I was able to hang out with family and friends and it was an all around good time. I had actually wanted to post Friday, but our internet crapped out on Wednesday, and we were unable to get a technician over… Continue Reading “Easter Weekend”
Busy busy
I actually was going to do another review, then realized I hadn’t written anything besides a paragraph or two on it. Which, I could keep writing, but I have video for it that I want to compile. It’s definitely been a learning curve getting… Continue Reading “Busy busy”
Whisper goes english
The three day weekend was nice, but now it’s time again to get back to it. The wind was absolutely atrocious over the weekend – my lesson that I was supposed to have Monday morning got cancelled, our barbecue was blown over and subsequently… Continue Reading “Whisper goes english”
The wild one
This weekend was a lot a fun. I rode Amber on Saturday, and tried out our new piece of equipment: a hackamore! Amber actually seems to like this better than the halter. I feel that it’s because it leaves her chin alone, and the… Continue Reading “The wild one”
2017 Goals….and update
Wow. So much has happened already this year. It feels like just yesterday it was the middle of March and I was dying for Rolex to come as fast as possible. This has been a really great year for me, despite Amber’s hip and… Continue Reading “2017 Goals….and update”
Six years strong
Although Amber’s birthday is on April 20th, and she officially became mine the first week of June, I was first assigned and met her mid to late September. June would be an apt time to celebrate a horse-iversary, but to me, I feel that ours is actually this time… Continue Reading “Six years strong”
Plain jane
I joke a lot about Amber being a sorrel. Before her, I loved the shiny, rich deep brown of Whisper. I adored the gorgeous reddish-brown of a mahogany bay. I sighed at the uniqueness of every dun and roan colored horse. I ogled those… Continue Reading “Plain jane”
