Life

Life has been zooming past.  I've had good moments and not so good moments the past few months.  But I'm keeping a postitive attitude on life. 

My equestrian pursuits are dominating my schedule right now.
I'm managing my own show series, our first show is this Sunday.  I've poured a lot of money, blood, sweat and tears into this show series.  I'm in the red for the first show, but by the 2nd show I'll be fine.

My friend is jumping my mare again.  We were supposed to go to Fox Chase this weekend, but I got too much on my plate.  So we're going to shoot for Sandstone on April 27th.

I have my entry form ready for Dressage at the Meadow.  I'm going to do Training 2 and 3.  I schooled first level, but I want to go to a schooling show first before I enter First Level.  Last night's ride made me brave, but not brave enough to do it at a licensed show.

I had Anne Crowell of ADC Saddlery check my saddle.  It fits!  Hurray!  So my pony is just naughty to be naughty when she gets tight in the back.  Last night's ride was relax and she was using herself well.  I also remembered how to ride and it was a great ride. 

Show enviroment another story.  But we gotta get out there.
