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...

Magic's 2nd day in his new home

It has been a while since I have posted on here but I thought it was the perfect time to restart the blog. So to start with I'll give you all an update on what's been going on over the years since I've posted and then I will be back to regularly posting and keeping you all updated on the world of magic.  The first big change who I need to introduce is Jaxon, Jaxon is mine and Jack's 7 month old baby, he was born on the 7th July 2020. Part of this blog will be dedicated to overcoming the challenges of having a small child and owning a horse, even when everyone told me it was impossible to do. Jax has a best friend Bailey who is mums new 1 year old puppy and he has the best time trying to play with her.  Of course Magic is one of Jaxon's best friends.  Now for an update on Magic, he is doing really well, I can't remember if I ever told you, but he moved yards last year when I was pregnant with little man. Unfortunately this yard just didn't quite ...

Olympics - good bad or both?

In the Beijing Olympics in 2008 the horses used in the pentathlon were said to cause farcical scenes with fall after fall after fall. This was said to be the fault of the horses that were either hired or loaned to the competitors. It was not blamed to be rider error or a combination of both rider error and horse error, it was labelled as being the horses fault or this is what it said in ' Horse and Hound Magazine'. This horse was said to have been to spooky and sharp, but is it not a combination of rider's aids and rider error AS WELL as the horse being spooky. Can we really just blame it on the horse, when we are the ones that tell the horse what to do, by no means am i saying it was 'just the riders fault' couldn't it have been a combination of both?.    For the London 2012 Olympics it was said that a total of two years if no longer was spent attempting to find the right horse for the right competitor. They made sure that the horse was at the right l...
