snow... I hate the stuff!

Well I haven't done a lot today other than helping my mum to do some jobs and helping to look after my Nan, who has now decided that she wants someone sitting with her 24/7, so this could be a very interesting weekend. 

Last night it started to snow but during the course of the day all the roads cleared and it was just sleet it wasn't properly snowing, so I was really excited that I was going to be riding tomorrow, but as the evening went on the sleet turned to snow and the snow flakes got bigger and bigger and bigger. They were settling everywhere, I live in the countryside and all the roads around where I lived were just turning white! I'm really glad that we don't live in a country that has snow all year round! I'd hate that! As I said to my Dad earlier I wish that it would either chuck it down and settle or not snow at all I don't like it when it's in that in between stage and it becomes icy and slippery. 

Unfortunately earlier in the evening I got a text from Fiona saying that riding lessons were cancelled because of the snow (we only have an outdoor school at the moment) and because of where she is situated and the fact that it's a very open space she tends to get more snow than I do at my house (we have lots of tree's that are surrounding our house). While I was gutted that I won't be riding I am going to take the opportunity to do some art just for the fun of it and also to catch up on some sleep, as recently I've not been sleeping at night. I'm also going to take the opportunity to take some snow photos.

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...
