I rode Tanza Today and Saturday

He was full of piss and vinegar on Saturday,  trying to take off running, whirling around etc and when I got home and let the horses out to the pasture he was running and bucking like a 4 year old.   And today he was not so eager to go, and had a few ouch steps but just a few, he mostly felt solid.   Knock wood but I think he is sound enough now to be fine for riding on real trails so long as it was just walk and enjoy the scenery riding and not endurance or CTR pacing.    I was going to ride Sadie both mornings but she was doing "you aint catching me" and especially Saturday, Tanza was "I'll go, I'll go"  Today Tanza was not eager, he'd have rather I just let everybody out instead of riding but he didn't try to avoid me.  

I cut dead small trees yesterday and my neck and shoulders are whining about it today.   I should pump the neighborhood to see if anyone has teen boys willing to do heavy yard work.   I have a nibble on my NextDoor ad for a housemate.  It's a gal, so I wouldn't get guy muscles, but I could use organized woman help too.   If it works out maybe she can help me line up someone to install laminate flooring and so on.  So I feel like I'm working out of my blahs from this winter,  it's slow progress but progress. 

I hope the chiropractor I'm trying today provides relief

 My neck and upper back have been getting sore a lot recently.  It is 7 weeks since my last chiropractor appointment before he retired.  Getting an adjustment and the muscle release work he did every 4-5 weeks kept me feeling pretty good but I was wanting to just crawl in a hole a lot of the time the last month and did not look for a new chiropractor until this week when my neck was really irritated.  I think I took it over the edge changing the tire on dad's old gooseneck using the mini size floor jack since I don't have a 5th wheel hitch to be able to drive the trailer up on a jack or couple of 2x6 to raise it for changing a tire.  I guess that may be a blessing in disguise.   I do need regular chiro work to feel good so the sore neck was a good clue bat.     I really should schedule a dental appointment as well before I end up with a tooth ache emergency.  

I put an ad for housemate on Nextdoor.   I suppose I'll put one on CL as well.   I'm a bit paranoid about putting them out there, I definitely need to word the CL as WE need help keeping the place up.  I don't know if churches even have little new sheets anymore or FB pages etc but of course none of the neighbors volunteered to post my offer on their church's media if the media exists.    Probably P, because he would have to deal with getting his own tractor and he hates change as much as I do really would prefer I stay here rather then selling; most of the 'ladies of' neighborhood group would probably be just as happy if the weird old maid moved away.  Well I think L might miss me, but she is busy with baby, and is now in the mommy's club and has that connection with the core group of neighbors that meet semi-regularly.  

Rotten FB,  I can't post on their marketplace app because my account is under Vee for my last initial rather than my full name.   I tried to sign up a new FB account with my full name and immediately got an account suspended response.  I suppose because it is a verboten 2nd account to same person, but I didn't want to just delete my over 10 years old account.    And every time I go there it is overload on my feed with a bunch of crap.  I need to go in and unfollow a bunch of people I guess, or unfriend them.  I should research if people get a notice with the unfriend option.  I don't want to hurt feelings or burn bridges.  Maybe I just need to forget about trying to use FB for any selling or roommate searching and go back to mostly not even checking it.    They are constantly pushing advertising and leftwing propaganda in what they show on 'my feed'.  I don't get enough out of it to put up with a ton of BS by going on there every day.

Neighbor bought dad's Prius yesterday

So one more thing off of my plate.   He took it to place his friend the Ford 6 liter specialist had recommended to me and it was less than $500 to fix it.  I asked $500 for it which is a pretty good deal, trade in value is 2K, but P had also spent some of his valuable labor time on it so I think it's good all around.  I signed the seller's section on the title and took it over there.   P has a Focus that he will sell now so he will get some cash out of the deal that way.  

I rode Sadie Saturday and Sunday.   The saddle that works on her is not very comfy for me;  I'll have to try to figure out how to make it work nicer for me so I'm more eager to ride her.    Tanza has been cantering hard some days when I let the horses out and then his RH with the sesamoid fractures is sore, he is dropping his hip when he trots I think,  now that I've seen that hip drop, any time his trot looks uneven to me and he is not stabbing the toe I assume he is dropping his hip because the fetlock is sore, I'm not often lined up to be straight behind him to really see the hip.   But he seems to get sore and have the uneven trot but not super sore like last fall so I think once the pasture is eaten down and he is not zooming he will be sound for walking trail rides.   Right now I've been figuring he is getting more than enough exercise for those bones and I'm keeping on with using the laser on him.  So with Sadie, Taj and then Tanza for walking rides I have plenty of horses I can ride.  I also found on Dreamhorse what I think is a rescue in Texas that had a couple of Arabians.   I should ask B if she has any friends that would like to ride Taj,  Sadie and Taj are buddy buddy so I think she would do fine on the trail if I had someone to ride Taj and there were not a lot of other horses.  

I have a chiropractor appointment Thursday.   I went online and this place seems like it will be similar to how Dr Williams did things that worked well for me.   If the Chiro doesn't work they have a massage therapist I might try so see if that muscle work helps my back and neck.   Being me I waited until my neck was bugging me to search for a new chiropractor.   

Work has been stressful lately.   Thinking back the big boss and sr software are not any worse than they've ever been; its just that I am more "ARGHHH, listen to my ideas instead of always making things unnecessarily difficult"   Plus I've been getting lost trying to sort out the python 2.7 script for the streaming service that we are supposedly hosting that was not updated when it should have been last year because the person in charge of it was on paternity leave and then taking a new job.   STUPID big boss had it written in 2.7 originally even though I TOLD him several years ago that everything was going to 3 as I was trying to learn python and finding that situation.    I'm not even officially in charge of that streaming service but jumped in because the gal that they assigned to it was over her head.
