Hoof breakthrough part 1

So the excuses continue – this will just be a short update post because I don’t have the time/energy for more blah blah blah blah. Like I commented earlier – that light at the end of the tunnel? That was the train headed for poor naive me. Like the coyote chasing the Road Runner and […] more
Life throws curve balls

Work continues to be absolutely crazy, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have been accused this week of being a squirrel as I dash from one thing to another, gathering my nuts for the winter. The image makes me laugh. Another “not-real” post from my today, although hopefully, […] more

In a shameless plug to win a $25 Target gift card, I’m linking this blog. I think she’s funny AND I love how she is willing to resort to bribery to get more followers. BTW – I don’t have the gadget/widget/whachamacallit on my blog, but I have 18(!) followers. Maybe I need to boost through […] more
Rinsing Beet pulp

In which my younger sister realizes I have passed all bounds of “normal” when it comes to horses. The conversation went like this (approximately): Loreleigh: I’ve decided I don’t want crap for Christmas this year and I finally figured out that people just didn’t know what to get me Me: Duh.
