86. Lots of news for you

well if I have done my maths right then today is the 86th day of the year it's mad to think that it won't be long until it's the 100th day of the year. Time really does fly by without people noticing. Well I figured it's about time that I let everyone in on why I haven't been writing on my blog recently there has been several reasons really. The first one is i have got some news but I didn't want to Jinx myself until I knew if it was true or not. On Tuesday at 12 pm I'll be getting the keys to my own flat.  While Iam really excited I am also kind of super nervous.  I know that it is a big step to be taking but at the moment I just personally feel like it's the right thing to do at the minute. Don't get me wrong I think that I'll have some days where I am going to struggle but believe me when I say that I'm going to try my hardest. The next thing is that once again my health hasn't been the best except this time it has ended up with me h

78. I think but i'm losing track of days

Tonight's post is just a brief post because i'm watching an interesting documentary on murders. I know that some people might find this morbid but I actually find it really interesting so I want to actually manage to get in to it. Things are going well with Magic. I've got no riding tomorrow though but I will explain it all tomorrow :) Until Next Time Amber and Magic

77. Back to regular blogging.

Magic really does make me laugh, he's been doing things that are funny for the past few days. This morning when I went up to do his stable he was no where to be seen, so I did all the inside of his stable, got his feed ready for tonight, and still magic was no where to be seen. The next thing that I know I was doing his Haynets and I had just watched Lynn call all the horses and seen them come running up. I was in the middle of filling the Haynets when all I heard was 'oi what are you doing' so I shouted back to Jack to ask him what was up as all he was supposed to be doing was putting his Haynets in the stable, and as I had come out the area where the haylage is stored I looked to the left and stood there was magic playing with the feed bucket. Jack thought that he had escaped and then Lynn told me that she had let magic come up. So I grabbed hold of his head collar and walked him up to the stable so that I could carry on with filling the Haynets but after that I really co

76. Inspired and motivated

Well it has been a few days since I've had time to post on here life has been hectic but I haven't really been doing anything so because I didn't want to come repetitive I chose not to post anything until I'd got something interesting to tell you all. However I changed my mind tonight after seeing some lovely comments from one of y my followers. I always love peoples comments but this one particular blogger and her awesome horse chrome have really inspired me over the time that I have been reading her blog and her lovely comments inspired me to write a post tonight. Nothing has been really different here, magic is loving being at his new yard, he's starting to get a really good bond with the yard owner and she says that she really likes him it's hard to believe that since he has been at his new home for over four weeks now. He's loving being g out with the herd and it really has made a massive improvement in his temperament and also how he reacts with his

70. 601st post

Well from my blog title you will see that today is the 70th day of the year and personally I think that, that is insane. It feels like it was only yesterday that it was the start of the new year and had just been Christmas, what feels even stranger to me is magics age. In 10 days it will be exactly two months until magic is one! And OMG how time has flied. It's currently 6.35 am realistically I should be curled up in bed with the Mr fast asleep but tonight that is not the case and so far I've been awake since jusy before 5am. The weird thing about tonight is that all my tablets were taken at a 'reasonable' time so that in itself should be a guaranteed way to keep me in a deep sleep until the morning but not so much the past few days. Another thing that I don't think is he long with the sleep but I do know is helping with my weight is the fact that I am just stopping snacking at night.  I've been trying to do this for a while but it normally lasts two or three we

69. Opinions appreciated

Okay guys so today's post is going to be a little bit different from normal instead of writing about what I've done for the day I am looking for some advice and opinions. When magic moved from the old yard to the new yard he swapped from being on hay to haylage for the first few weeks he was staying in while all the others were out and was getting to feeds a day as well as two medium sized Haynets. Magic then started going out all day so I cut out his feed in the morning and decided that he didn't really need it as you could see he was starting to put lots of weight on. So for the last two weeks he has been getting one hard feed in the evening like all the yard owners horses get at the same time as her horses.  Then he's been getting haylage, but at the minute he's going through two and sometimes three Haynets in the night, and I don't know if this is normal, he doesn't look particularly over weight or anything like that.  When I first moved him we had ass

68. Being big kids for the day

Today was a quieter day than I have had recently the first thing that I did when I finally woke up at around lunch time was go and sort magics stable out. I gave him a next big bed and jack filled his Haynet up again like normal. We have our own routine going and by the time that I have done magic's stable then jack has normally finished doing the Haynets. As the original plan for the day was to go and help Josh finish sorting his flat out I'd put Magics food in the stable next to him so that Lynn could just pop his food in this evening, as I tend to have a habit of falling asleep at joshs. It's due to a combination of the tablets that I am on and just the fact that I am not sleeping fully through the night and that I keep waking up then going to sleep again. However that didn't end up happening so instead jack and I ended up chilling in matlock bath for the day. Ever since I was a kid I have always loved playing on the arcades so that is what I decided that I should

67. A chilled out day

Today has been a quiet normal day, I didn't really do a lot. I got woken up this morning and then went to see Jacks brother for a while. Once I had time to wake up properly I headed up to do Magic, I mucked his stable out, while Jack and Josh filled the haynets (bonus for me as I HATE filling haynets)! After we had done this we just chilled to be honest, I spent the majority of the day in and out of sleep, but when I was awake I started reading a new book that I had got. The new book is based all on Tarot, this is something that I am finding myself really interested in. I've always loved the look of that sort of thing but never really got in to it but in the end I thought that it was really interesting, now I know that a lot of people would find this sort of thing really weird but I find it really interesting.  This evening I went to see Magic and give him his food, I didn't do a lot with him because to be honest he just looked really sleepy, so I put him his food in g

65 and 66. Dentist trips, Snow, Gatsby and needing to sleep!

Well this post is going to be two days in one, it might not be the worlds longest, as those of you who have me on facebook will know that I am having quite a few health problems. But I'm trying to just keep going so I'll start with day 65 (which I was half way through writing last night and then ended up deleting it like a complete and utter mong)! As you do.  4th March 2016  Yesterday was a quite day, I wasn't feeling very well and was really tired and I had to go to the dentist which in my mind is never really a good thing but it's one of those things that you have to do so I just get on and do it. I got up at about 11am as recently you'll know that I am not sleeping very well, so I end up sleeping in during the day and just get myself in to a really bad sleeping routine which isn't good for me at all. But the first thing that I did was go and clean out Magic's stable, by the time I had got to the yard it had started to snow and I really wasn'

64. horses, sleep, eat, repeat :)

I feel crap, I can't think of any more effective words than that to be honest. I'm tired, in pain and feeling light headed. My medications have all changed and to be honest they just really mong me out, so all day I feel sleepy and tired and like I just can't really wake up. However if I don't take the tablets then I don't get the sleep that I need which also drives me insane. So it's sort of a lose/lose situation, from those of you that read yesterdays blog post you will know that it was written at roughly 6am this morning, again also not a good sign. However I then slept for a few hours until sort of 11am this morning so that doesn't really help.  When I finally got my arse out of bed I went to do Magic's stable and decided just to get it over and done with, while I do this, I'll muck his stable out, sort his feed out for that night and put the water in. Then put his feed for the next time in the bucket ready along with his pink powder. Jack w

63. Horrible weather but lots of time with my midnight magic

Yesterday was a long day and I just completely forgot to get around to posting it so I'll post this now because even though it's 5.48am, I'm lying in bed wide awake but God knows why. Within about 30 minutes of waking up jack and I were up and about and ready to go out and do the jobs that we need doing. One of the main good points about Magics new yard is that he goes out with the rest of the herd.  And part of the deal that was made with loan was that she'll put him out and bring him back in so that he never really goes out on his own, seen as he normally goes out at about 9.30 am it means that i don't really see him in the morning and I get a bit of a lie in. But the first job that I do when we go out is go up to the yard and muck his stable out so that he has a nice warm bed for when he gets in. I'll also sort his feed out for the next two feeds but I will only add water to the one that he'll have that night. Kisses from the pony face. This morning

62. Major catch up time!

Well I think that I am on the right day of the year but a combination of major tooth ache and just being in quite a lot of pain/sleepy means that my brain really isn't with it today. But here's my catch up for all you lovely readers. Oh and I might even share some super cute photographs with you guys too, but you'll just have to carry on reading to see.  23rd February - Jack passed his driving test, I'd been nervous and on edge all day but knew that he'd be able to do it! He tried coming back and doing the whole 'I failed' then telling me the truth scenario, but I ran up to the car and caught him off guard so he had no choice but to admit to me that he had passed! That night we went out for a drive and to see a few friends that we hadn't really seen since I had lost my licence.  24th February - Today was a HORRIBLE day, the first part of it was okay we were just chilling with Jack's older brother Josh, we'd gone to see Magic (who always
