I'm not sure how many people actually are worried that I haven't posted in a while but I do have a couple good reasons. No, I didn't get hurt again! I have been so busy at work with fiscal year end putting in 10 - 10 1/2 hour days which totally kicked my butt so I was in bed by about 9 every night! I have done some stamping but sure didn't get anything posted as you can tell.
So a little update on what else has been going on....I sold my horse that didn't work out and have been busy looking for a new one. I finally found her in Minnesota near Minneapolis so on Wednesday, after the books closed at work, I got my son up at 6:30 and we drove 5 1/2 hours to get her...and 5 1/2 hours home, we got home at 8 pm. Here's a picture of her:
It took some time but we finally came up with a name, Jingles. My daughter brainstormed it. She had a Fischer Price stick horse when she was little with a little bell at the back she called Jingles. She has a blue ribbon pedigree with tons of famous horses on her papers. Her registered name is Scotchsome Tin. But the best part is, she is a total sweetie. She has had some training and is riding really nice. I am just giddy, this is the horse I was meant to have...even though DH thinks I should have found a gelding (neutered male).
So I will be spending the rest of the summer riding my new girl and enjoying what's left. After being laid up with broken limbs I missed a lot. I am still limping around, my ankle still hurts a lot and very swollen. In Oct. or November I will have the hardware taken out unless I can wait until after Christmas. I will be stamping too, I can't ride all the time! Hopefully I will get some posted too. After Jingles finishes breakfast this morning I'm going riding and this afternoon we are going to my niece/Goddaughter's wedding. We have new fencing to put up around the horse area too and have to finish getting the hay for the winter...the summer is just too short!
Until next time: Happy Trails!
