Weird Winter

So I am taking a study break in order to write this! Let me just say that it is about the middle of December and it is raining outside, yup no freezing just raining. If I remember correctly last year it was snowing by this time and ice was all over the place. I don't know but something is definitely going on..

But on another note, I was talking to my friend/barn owner about finding some new places to trail ride and she mentioned about the fields across the barn and now I am really excited about going to explore those. I am thinking maybe about this weekend for the exploration, but we will see. I know for sure that if I will go, my fuzzy quarter sheet is coming along : ) I love field riding and trail riding, it is just really relaxing and a great feeling to be out of the ring and in the fresh air!

Well it was my day yesterday to do the morning barn chores and muck out, fun! Amazingly they didn't throw a fit when I started kinda late doing feeding and turning out. The barn where I board is really tiny and the people there are the best. The horses are taken care of mainly by myself and the barn owner. After boarding at two other farms, the owner that runs the farm is my favorite person ever! She is so willing to help, do whatever makes the boarder feel comfortable, and her personality is the best by far! I went through a tough time when I wasn't sure what to do with my horse and especially financially it was difficult to keep him up, but the owner of the barn was so supportful and we worked out a plan that allowed for me to keep my horse. I can't express the gratitude that I feel to her : ) I guess that is all the time I have from my break, now I will drag myself back studying, but the semester is almost done! Be back soon!
