I felt like I needed to ride after the last week of buying, hauling and stacking hay and then I bought bagged horse feed yesterday. So I had a lovely short ride on Shade, finally using my new Skito pad that I've had for 2 weeks or more. What little riding I've done in that time was on Ms. Sadie.
Yesterday I renewed my AERC membership and finally got Sadie enrolled. Now I must keep riding her and get her ready to do the official rides. She is progressing and I think she will be fine but I should try to organize taking her to some lessons and trail rides to get her more exposure before entering rides since there is a lot of horse adrenalin flowing at the official AERC rides and my horses have always picked up on that and been more up than normal.

I've always joked that I work to support my 4 legged dependents. Lately juggling a weanling and 2 older horses + my main riding horse I thought I may as well blog it for a bit.

He is semi-retired, but seems to LOVE showing green horses the ropes at LD rides. Shade: 1997 arabian mare. It took us a good while to form a bond but she has turned into quite an honest endurance horse. I don't train to ride fast but she's a great completer. Sadie: 2007 arabian filly. I got Shade at 30months old & was not going to get another horse that was not already under saddle --but I bought Sadie in Utero in Feb 2007, she was born the end of april.
