Update post

Just a quick post from me today, sorry I haven't posted in a while, it's not even that I have been that busy I just haven't been on my laptop much recently and updating from my phone is a pain!  So what's new? 

Magic is doing really well it's been a few weeks since I've seen him but he's good! Last time I saw him he was letting me touch him willingly and he was following me (or more I was following) and playing with him around the field! He's being delivered on the 10th Of October (which would have been my Nan's birthday), his stables sorted, I know what bedding I'm using. Now all I need to do is sort out feeding, worming, dentist and the farrier! Yeah not much at all, next joke lol. I've sorted out some rugs as my amazing riding teacher has kindly offered to give me some rugs for him. So that's all good. 

Now on to the riding, I've been back riding either two or three weeks, since I broke my hand. It's going really well, my jumping is much more fluid and calmer. Ever since I got my new air body protector I have almost got a new confidence when it comes to jumping. Our flat work is  getting there slowly but surely I just need to build my stamina up more. I've been going to the gym again to lose more weight at the minute it's only once a week but I'm hoping to go more often soon. 

What else? Hmm, Jack's got a new job, he's now working as a football steward. While the work isn't full time it is definitely better than nothing and it is also something that he seems to be really enjoying so that always helps! He's also looking in to joining another stewarding company to do all the big horse shows next year and also all of the festivals. 

Oh and finally my health! It is still not 100% but I am slowly getting there, slowly but surely. I had an endoscopy about a month ago that came back all clear and I haven't been being as sick unless I get really stressed out so I'm trying not to do that to often. I am now booked in for another series of tests in the middle of September to see how fast my food is digesting, so hopefully this will give me the answers as to why my stomach is not quite right. 

But that's all I can think about to post at the minute. Jack's at work tomorrow, and I've got a lesson on Gatsby. I'll be back tomorrow with another post. I'm going to try to get in to blogging more often again but I won't make any promises. 

So until next time

    Have you been tested for celiac disease? Also my boss has this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroparesis which might be what they are looking for if they are checking the speed you digest things. I have my fingers crossed these tests give you a definitive answer. :)

    I wish I could help you with all of that stuff with Magic, but honestly everything is so different over there I have no idea... I am glad you're getting a farrier lined up immediately. Everyone around me seems to think it's okay to not trim them until they are three and start riding, but they need to be trimmed at a young age to prevent problems. I learned that the hard way with Chrome. I'd ask your vet about deworming. Weanlings have different requirements from adult horses.

    I still think it's really cool that Magic was born on the same day as Chrome. May 19th. So cool!

    Congrats to Jack on his job!! Oh and I'm glad your hand is better.

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...

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...

Picture time Part one

Hiya Guys,  I can't say that I've really done much today other than finding myself sleeping lots. After the past week being quite stressful as well as the few weeks before leading up to the court date it's safe to say I've hit my barrier where all I really want to do is sleep. The problem is though that I am sleeping during the day and then it gets to 11pm roughly and I find myself wide awake and on my laptop looking for something to do that is going to make me feel sleepy. I've tried reading a book and I start to feel really sleepy but then the minute that I turn the light off and put the book down, bang, I'm wide awake again.  As I've not really done a lot I thought that I would take this opportunity to post some pictures up from the last time that I jumped Gatsby (also the first time I fell off him). Most of these pictures were taken by the boyfriend but some were also taken by my amazing mum. So here you go guys. :)  Really do love this pic...
