Dancing Queen

After the day I have had today the song 'Dancing Queen' by Abba seems to fit quite nicely with my day. This afternoon mums car came back, they had removed the 'third pedal/second accelerator' and they had also taken all the loose cabling stopping it from messing around with the radio which should mean that the Radio and central panel won't have any more problems with them. The car was supposed to be back for 10am so that we could do all the jobs in it at once fill it up with petrol and do the shopping, but mum got told that we wouldn't have her car back til 1pm and then it became 1:30 they might make they're mind up one day, and actually stick with it. So this meant that this morning we went to do the shopping and then later in the afternoon we went to fill the car up with petrol making what should have been one trip became two trips. 

We then decided to wash both my mum and dads car so that the grit and salt that has been on the road does not effect the paint work on the cars, what should have taken us less than an hour took us nearly two hours because everyone it appeared decided to wash their cars too.

Tomorrow is Saturday so that should mean some Gatsby time at West Hallam Riding Centre but it all depends on how the weather goes over the night, as at the minute it is snowing heavily again meaning that the outdoor school will be covered in snow and could also be turning in to ice. But Fiona has said that she will do possibly lunging but other unmounted things, so hopefully (fingers crossed) I will have some pictures and get to do some things that are horse related.

Back to the dancing though tonight I went to a youth group type of thing, loads of my good mates where there tonight, including Evie, who I spend a lot of time with and from 7-9 we spent the entire time laughing and giggling and just playing on Just Dance four, we all had such a laugh and burnt a few calories which was great. Evie then offered to drive me home so that my mum wouldn't have to and she's not been passed for that long on her driving test and this is the first time that it has snowed since she had passed. Originally she said she was going to go along the main roads because we just didn't know how snowy the back roads were going to be snowy. She said we would start off on them but if it got too snowy she was going to turn back and go along the main roads, but it didn't and we kept going and she didn't skid once and dealt with the snow really well. She's loving driving and seems to be having fun :) 

But thats all for now, hopefully I will have pictures and video's for you tomorrow.
Until Next Time

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti...

Just as you think things are getting better they prove not to be.

On Sunday in the Early hours of the morning my nan took another fall, while she was trying to go to the toilet, (she has an en suite so it wasn't a long way for her to walk but she went all dizzy and then fell), and as she has a small compact bathroom she hit her head on the side of the bath. Today we had the Doctor out to see her and he was worried with the fact that her blood pressure drops so low when she stands up and when following the doctors finger when looking to the right her eye was jerking side ways but not to the left. So he said he wanted her to go in to a Day case unit and have a whole load of tests including a brain scan, blood tests and chest x-rays. He wrote a cover note/letter and my Uncle took my nan to the doctors. While she was there she had an ECG, blood tests and chest x-rays but no brain scan which was the most important one that she needed. They then told her that her blood pressure was fine but it was her heart that they were worried about. She never had ...

an intense few days.

The past few days have been INTENSE to say the least. Both days have been filled with horsey madness and while I am aching now I feel good for managing to accomplish everything that I have done. There will be some video's soon but I honestly just haven't got around to uploading them and editing them so as soon as I do that I'll let you know and you can all see. Yesterday I went up to do Magic, after all the ponies nearly escaped from the field I eventually managed to convince him to come and do some work. He had a really nice groom and fuss, which he LOVED. Then I put his bridle with his new reins on, and his lunge cavesson (not sure if I have spelt that right), we lunged nicely for both ways doing walk, trot and canter. Then out of no where going to the right he exploded. I couldn't see anything that had happened so assumed he was just having one of his moments and that he would be fine and calm down, but that I might need to free school him first. So I did what I...
