Because life with horses is never orderly.

The Idea of Order

Transitions are hard…

On every level.
On horses and between seasons. While I am incredibly relieved that spring is on the way and there’s an end in sight to the cold misery that is winter, I could seriously do without the mud, snud, and hair. I’m also hating these last minute storms winter is tossing at me in one final attempt at ruining my life. 😉 Ah well, soon enough it will be over 100. 😀

Snow in March?

Someone wake me up from this nightmare.
That is not ok. To be honest, I am never on board with snow, regardless of the time of year. It’s just a NOPE. But there are some who seem able to tolerate its awfulness providing it occurs over the holidays. I’ve yet to meet many who love it once they’ve been given a taste of spring and the ability to dress in under 45 layers without freezing to death.

Fall…

More a verb than a noun these days.
So this morning was apparently the first real morning of fall and no one was pleased. If I were bright I’d have followed my own advice above. Instead, I pressed on and rode through an impressive array of shenanigans. One of these days I’ll learn to make better life choices. 😉

Finally!

Not that I love being hairy, mind you.
Not that I am complaining, of course! 😉 I’ll take being covered in hair and mud over snow, ice, and homicidal horses any day! Here’s to hoping that summer gets its rear in gear and makes an appearance soon.

Because NO ONE Likes the Creepy Elf…

Seriously. Have you ever even looked at it??
Honestly, in what world is it NOT terrifying to convince your kid that a small, creepy looking elf is lurking in the house and that he comes ALIVE at night to spy on you all and report back to his master?! All that’s missing is some creepy music and blood spatter and you have the makings of a solid horror flick. 😉

A Word of Warning…

He also probably won’t be amused with frozen burritos or Chinese Carry out.
I honestly think that barns are where time goes to die– especially during the summer when it’s warm and light out for hours on end. Somehow I always swear I’ll be home at a reasonable time and then *poof* it’s 9:30 and I’m just wandering in. :/
