Garnet · September 2010

Starts Tomorrow!!! I'm SO excited!! Vampy and I went to our friend, Susie's, -not real name- house this morning and rode horses for hours! Haha My rear is SO sore right now! Going to the arena tomorrow to begin horsemanship! Can't wait!

I like Sammy, he reminds me of Old Lady Lucky xD Except for the fact that she's black w/ white and he's a pally, lmao. Is Vampy using Tawny or Blaze? o.O And oh my dear, the top of my boots wouldn't even fit in the stirrups on the saddle Graycie's sportin ._. That's why I love my extra-wide stirrups. XD I don't like doing horsemanship stuff xD I just like the running and simon says/command classes, haha. Good luck though.

Vampy is using Blaze if he will cooperate. He tried to rear in the trailer today when we were unloading him and cut his head up a lil. He broke the lead rope in half =/ So we may not even get him loaded in the morning =( Sammy didn't like Blaze being around his mares today though xD Yea haha "Susie's" feet fit in those stirrups fine. I love the pink print on the bridle though. I'll post pics of he horsemanship stuff as we take them =D Susie and Vampy told me about the simon says and follow the leader stuff they do! This horsemanship is getting us ready for the drill later in the year I do believe

Oh dear .-. Coax, just coax him in easily. xD I have no doubt that's what Vampy planned on doing, but I had to say it. xD I should've atleast placed in Simon Says today...but apparently if a horse shifts it's weight and moves one leg when it's suppose to be standing you get disqualified? I find that as complete bull, but what can ya do? It was the only class this mare cooperated with me in. xD I almost took a little..test drive on how to fly doing keyhole. o.o' So my confidence went -wayy- down. ;; BUT-I stayed on. >D lmao I should text Vampy about that anyway... xD I think I forgot while I was still having a heart attack, lmao.

Wow! Yea I almost got your number from her phone then was like "Naaaah Femme wouldnt wanna text me" xD haha i HOPE they dont disqualify you if your horse moves 0.0 Sammy has a habit of trying to put his head down to eat the grass and sniff the ground haha Vampy was riding Blaze in the round pen and he stumbled. Everyone kinda gasped and was proud that she managed to stay in the saddle xD Vampy was coxing him in. it was the unloading =( He was cross tied and vampy only had one tie undone and was going to undo the second one when Blaze started pulling backwards. The whole trailer was shaking from him pulling the way he was. The whole time i was trying to get Tawny unhooked from the trailer to get her outta the way if Blaze decided to run that way but her lead rope got stuck D= @Mys: Yea.. My horse? The one that's at the trainers?

Of course femme would wanna text Garn. xD Feel free to grab my number out of her phone, haha. And yeah..I was tempted to start something, but I didn't actually want to start anything. They didn't even give me my damn sixth place!

< They were hawk eyein' me and Tunie the whole class, I swear it's coz I kept bouncing out of the saddle at her canter but stayed firmly planted at the trot. xD And the fact that I demolished the thread-the-needle pattern and scratched barrels. ;; But yeah, the girl on the other end of the arena had her horse dancin' around and movin' her whole body around, yet Tunie shifted her weight and stretched out her right hind leg.

I was so pissed..I mean, I should've said something, I regret not saying anything. I just didn't want to start anything and then get hollered at by Mendi even more after I would've gotten into a big arguement with one of the owners of the stable that was hosting the show. .-. I mean..I can see the other rider getting disqualified/pulled because her horse was actually moving around, mine stretched her damn leg and shifted her weight. >.> And wow..that sounds like it would've been stressful.

Garnet · September 2010

Omg wow 0.0 That's crazy! I wouldn't have said anything either though =/ I'm naturally quiet person, I leave the threatening and hollering for Vampy most times xD Unless I'm in the mood to make ppl mad.. Like Vampys ex bf John.. I fight with him ALL the time >.> I'm goin to church with vampy in a lil while so ill grab your number and text you, letting you have my number xD I still cant get over them disqualifying you for your horse stretching.. *sigh* i hope they dont fuss at sammy for lowering his head.. =/

If she had lowered her head and got disqualified I woulda came out them and made a -huge- scene. But yeah..I'm kinda pissed they were hawk eyein' an talking about me the whole time. >.> they barely looked at anyone else .-. And haha, I'm naturally quiet, but if it's something I should get the benefit of, Ima usually fight. I guess it was probably because Mendi told me that I wasn't ready to ride Tunie because I wasn't bossy enough or something and didn't want her to get mad at me for making a scene, especially in the arena. I mean, if her canter wasn't -soo- rough and I wouldn't have had to focus on keeping my seat so much, I would've been able to handle her much better. Her trot and full out run were amazing, it was just her canter. ;; My lower back hurts insanely bad today from her canter, because in simon says we had to canter more than I would've liked too, and I had to keep her from full out running around the arena, as well as into other horses. ;; I looked horrible cantering her too...my ass was constantly out of the saddle. D; But was glued to the seat for the walk, both trots and run. *sigh* Can't win, can ya? lol And Blake offfered to let me ride her mare sometime at one of the shows.

I love her horse so much, there's a picture of it in my art post if you wanna see her. xD I call her Pretty Face Horse, lmao.

Garnet · September 2010

Hehe! im glad you didnt go all crazy and get in trouble! i didnt even get to ride today.. kinda hurt and was trying not to cry.

Minx · September 2010

Dx im sorry. He started acting like a stallion with all the horses he didnt know there. Hopefully youll get that appy mare though and itll all be good

Garnet · September 2010

Maybe. If we get the money we are going to get her Thursday. But I found a paint gelding that we may go get Friday

Minx · September 2010

i hope so! I always think of you on a paint. Idk why. Youve just always been looking at them and not appy's or qh's lol!

Garnet · September 2010

I like paints most. They are my favorite haha Hence Dixie >.> Strong, Fast, Pretty, Paint

Howdy, Stranger!
