Theory Tests, Blood Tests and Equine Nutrition Tests!

Today I have done absolutely nothing, I slept in this morning not getting up til lunch time because I was feeling rough, (my nephew had a stomach bug when I went over to stop last week and I think I've got some of that) and when I did get up I spent time doing last week's work on my Equine Nutrition course and tomorrow I will start this weeks, unfortunately this is the last week but then March 25th I'll be starting a photography course!

My mum had to take my Brother to have some blood tests as they want to keep an eye on his white blood cells (I think) and she tried to take him to our local blood test clinic in the morning but they changed their starting times, so she was taking him to our main hospital in the afternoon and as my Dad was at work and my Uncle was away today I said that I would stay in and look after Nan. She slept the majority of the time other than when her phone rang and then she woke up. Just before my mum got in she asked me to make her a boiled egg with toast and butter and then a cup of tea, I'm starting to get pretty good at making cups of tea and also at making boiled eggs, speaking of eggs, I really fancy one maybe for my breakfast tomorrow? Tomorrow my Nan has to have more x-rays and go back to the fracture clinic and then on Friday she has to go in for the entire day to have a whole load of more tests run and to see the consultant so maybe this will give her some more answers and make her feel happier to get out of bed and sit in her sitting room, but who knows? Not me!

Today Fiona had the area representative from Pony Club coming out to the stables to check that she had got everything in place to be able to start doing pony club. Then Fiona's got to order some things in and after this Pony Club should be starting soon, I'm so excited and really just can't wait to do it and get to learn more. Gatsby's got the chiropractor coming out to him soon to check that his back is okay and then when we know whether it is or not, Fiona is going to look at getting him a new dressage saddle. Which I think will be fun to ride in. I've got a lesson on Saturday and Jamie-Leigh should be back in our group lesson as I think she'll have done her exam by then!

In other day to day news Friday I will be booking my Theory test and for the past week each night I have been doing an hour reading the highway code and doing some online tests. I've been passing the online tests for the Theory, but I also need to remember to practice 'Hazard Perception' tests as I think that this will be my downfall so tomorrow I am going to look some up online and give them ago!

Now I'm back off to read a book.

Until Next Time

A Girl With A Dream

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...

possible broken hand x3.

hiya guys well it's been a few days and I was planning on updating you all today. Unfortunately I won't be able to go in to as much detail as I want to because I am having problems typing because it looks like for the third time I have broken my hand again! In the exact same place, how rubbish is that? But they can't tell me because it will not show up for another two weeks on an X-ray so at the minute it's back in a splint and I've got to go back to hospital in two weeks. Well Saturday I got to ride Gatsby again. We have been working on getting him in to an outline more consistantly but it took me seeing Fiona riding Pumpkin Pie for me to know what it was that I needed to do for Gatsby to work properly in to an outline. We got some really good work in the walk and trot (I have got pictures) and slowly we are starting to get it in the canter as well but by the time we move on to canter I tend to feel quite tired and weak on my left side. We did an exercise th...

Hello strangers!

Wow it feels like a life time ago since I updated my blog let alone since I actually started first writing this blog. So many things have changed and I’ve kept thinking about restarting this but every time I think about doing it life gets in the way and before you know it I just haven’t done it. So where do I start, how about with the big fella himself. My midnight magic is now 8! He has a heart of gold and after a particularly rough year is definitely coming out of the other side. Magic is a jumping lover and if you let him pick I think that’s all he’d ever do. He’s spent a lot of time working on his flat work which in the long run has really helped to develop his jumping. Last year magic suffered a horrible injury, he damaged his suspensory ligament on his front left leg and on the same leg damaged the collateral ligament that goes to his coffin joint, unfortunately for him he had a pretty bleak prognosis, with only a 30% of being even field sound. With a little bit of luc...
