So it's time for my nearly semi-annual training question. I have a young pony who is a doll under saddle, she goes in a cute frame, engages herself naturally, jumps a course and all that jazz. She learned to leg yield off the left in minutes. But she will not bend to the right or leg yield...

I'm definately driving less. I don't drive up to my parents anymore, just wait for them to make the trip into town and go back with them, same thing with friends who live in the country and come into town for errends, etc. My little car is on it's last legs anyways, so I try to avoid using it...

I posted a while back (December?) that two of our horses had been infected with Lepto and had contracted uveitis. Well, we've now learned that all of our horses were infected, and one more has gotten uveitis. Thankfully the one who most recently acquired it is almost already ok and they can't...

Yeeess I was *hoping* that Murray would try and deal Emery, but honestly I don't think they'd find anyone willing to take a chance on him, with his off-ice issues and his salary is waaaaay to high for the way he's been playing(five goals on twenty shots?!). Oh well. Oh man there's been some...

I certainly am! I don't have TSN but have NHL.com reloading every five minutes ;) My team(Ottawa Sens) is going to be pretty quiet, I think, aside from acquiring Lapointe...they already did their "big" trade (lotta good THAT was.) I hope the Oilers are able to do something though, they're so...

I don't know if you've seen The Phantom of the Opera, but a "masks and mirrors" theme reminds me a LOT of that movie, I don't know if you could work stuff like that in.

All my pics of me I'm goofing off somehow, but here ya go... During a roadtrip to Toronto, my first time trying poprocks. That same roadtrip, we had bets going on who could fit into the bottom compartment of the wardrobe in the hotel room. I won.

Ok, I did something very stupid at work tonight and sliced my finger open very well. I put it under water and put a bandaid on it but had to get back to work. I don't think it needs stitches, it just hurts a lot and has been bleeding off and on since it happened (around 6:30). My problem is...

I'm look at career options right now, and I'm very seriously intrigued with the prospect of becoming a pilot. Is anyone a pilot that could give me their opinions of flying as a profession and also a hobby? (I'm getting my Private Pilots License anyways, but would love to talk to anyone who...

Yes messing with them provides hours of entertainment. I know it's only their job, but some of them are rather obnoxious, so me and my friends have lists of things we've done. Funny, neither of us get many calls anymore...

Let me be the devil's advocate here but I would do this for a number of reasons. I *did* do this when I was about 11 with my pony who was for sale, because I decided I couldn't part with him. I would do this with anything that received more training, etc. However in 99% of the cases (besides...

Dear Santa: I can explain...

Thanks everyone. Thankfully there are no pregnant mares. We don't know about the source, the vet was suggesting maybe with all these darn racoons the hay got infected through coon urine. Our vet doesn't believe the vaccine is actually effective used on horses, and I have heard of horses who...

I've never heard of anyone having nerve damage or anything, although it was nearly two days before I regained full feeling in my mouth (scared me!) Personally I looked like crap for two weeks with bruising (went on a trip the second week and so many people gave me horrified looks or asked me...

Just begging people to keep us in your thoughts and prayers - one of my horses contracted Lepto, just when the vet thought she was over it it reappeared, we're not sure if we're going to be able to get her over this, and we're scared for the other horses. One other mare has started having eye...

Just remember to stir it frequently! At work we used those, and if you didn't stir it the hot chocolate would burn, which was reeeaally disgusting...

That sounds about half like her...lol maybe you just got her while she was sleeping or something though as sweet and docile are two words that have never been used to describe her : . She does seem to really enjoy her job though, and always tries very hard. LOL Once she's doing her job she's...

I'm sort of just finishing this situation, what I ended up having to do was sell all but two, then I'm going to free lease one out and my mother will take care of the last one. She's 'horsey' but I didn't want to risk anything happening and my having to sell them quickly, without finding the...
