Having a lovely day *pictures*

Persuaded my mom to give me a lift down to the barn. It's pretty cold today, but hey - it is December.

I took Dancer out for a little romp round the trails and she was good as gold. I'm thinking about getting her a new saddle pad/ bandage combo for a late Christmas present. Any color suggestions leave below :) We did a little bit of log jumping but I avoided the puddles because she was wearing white bandages! Maybe I should have planned that a bit better...

So glad there's wifi at the barn because I can update before I forget, ha ha. I'm off for lunch now, superhungry!

Hope everyone has a great new year and a happy and healthy 2013.

This is a snap that Paige very kindly took today before our ride:

Oopsie, sorry guys!

Hello anybody that still visits my blog - I'm sorry that I didn't post!!

I got very busy right after that last post I made in... September?! Star left on the 14th of September. She was sold to a really nice girl who is 3 (?) years older than me and wants to do stadium with her. Which is great, yay! Because I realised that maybe before I was being a teensy bit selfish because this way Star will be happier. So even though I was hurting, I had to let her go.

Anyway, on to the busy part: On the 4th November someone new started boarding at our barn (which is the best in CT, hi guys!). And his name is *drumroll* Ben, and he has a horse, and omigoshomigosh.

Woah, I flipped out a bit there :)

Anyway, Ben has two horses, a chestnut TB mare called Dancer and a dun gelding called Drummer (not TB, not sure what breed). So because Ben is superbusy and a really nice guy, he said that I can lease Dancer, or Dee, off him for a while. So all I have to do is look after her and exercise her for him! And I get to spend as much time with her as I LIKE!

Obviously I said yes, and with school and assignments and all that stuff, I kinda - sorry about this - forgot to post. Yes, I'll go dig myself a hole right away.

Free virtual cupcakes & carrots for anyone who read this far, and I solemnly swear to post more in future!
