44. Exhausted

And the hard bit isn't even done yet! Today has been a hectic day, I had to cancel my lesson on Gatsby which I was gutted about because I had just got so much to do for moving Magic tomorrow at 7am! I am going to be exhausted and think that my poor boy will be asleep at that time to but I do love him. 

This morning I woke up and the first thing I did was get my mum and jack to make the 40 minute drive to Cannock to a riding shop, where I got him loads of hi-viz, I might have gone a bit over the top but with where I live it's mainly country roads and the roads are narrow, and I'm just not risking someone not seeing him. 

We then went up to the old yard, and gave magic some fuss, I think that he knows something is going on but I gave him a really good groom and made sure that he was okay and happy and then tried his hi-viz exercise sheet on, with his hi-viz leg boots. I don't think that he was very happy with it but I left it on him while he wondered around in his stable, while I packed away all his stuff. Jack took all the electric fencing down, while mum and I started putting the small things in the car. Then Jack lifted the heavy things in to the car and two of his filled haynets that I had got left. 

We then drove the route that magic, jack and I are going to be walking tomorrow, which is quite hilly but none of the hills are too steep. It's just under three miles, when we got to the new yard, I unloaded all of magic's stuff in to his tack room (which only i have a key too), yes your reading that right he has got his own personal tack room, put him a bed down ready for the morning and a hay net up. I got all his things in the place that I wanted them and was happy with and then realised that I hadn't got a corner feeding bucket for Magic, so Jack my mum and I rushed around to get hold of one. We've got one and Lynn's husband has said he will put it up for me tomorrow. I'm expecting him to be exhausted by the end of tomorrow but i KNOW that it is the best move that can be made for him.

But for now I need to rest as I've got a long ass walk tomorrow and I am so NOT prepared for it, I have no idea what's to come all I know is that I have a huge amount of confidence in my little man. so here's some pictures of his new place and of the cute fella himself.

I love this photograph of Magic and I, for once he's got his ears forwards although do you guys think he's hi viz'd enough lol! want to make sure that he was seen, i know overly cautious but best to be safe than sorry. 

I have my own tack and feed room, this is one side of it.

This is the other side of it.

And this is magic's stable I think that he's going to look so small in it but I think that it will be okay, I'm not sure where I'm going to put his corner feed yet. That door is the door in to my tack room bit so it's all very personal and I Really like that. 


Until Next Time

  3. I LOVE the new place!! Your own locking tack room! His stall is so much bigger than the last place. The last place looked kind of small to be, but I figured it might just be the angle of the pictures. I love the picture of him in his hi-vis rug. It looks so awesome on him!!

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...
