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 will then fill the haynets up that Magic has emptied and then I will finish off his stable by adding any extra straw that he may need. Today Magic was stood up by the school so when I had finished doing all the jobs I popped down to see him and give him a little bit of fuss. Which he seemed to appreciate. But then when it was time for me to go he just wanted to stand by the gate and come in, so I just walked off and ignored his neighing as he needs to learn that his herd mates are who he should stay with but of course it was a nice feeling to actually no he'd rather spend time with me. 

This evening my mum fed Magic as I was just way to tired and in to much pain, I'd spent the majority of the afternoon asleep at jack's brothers flat, and just didn't feel well at all. I'm also dreading having to go to the dentist tomorrow. But for now I can't think of anything else to tell you my life is quite boring after all, so for now i'll leave you with some pictures. Enjoy :) 

Pony out in the fields with his two 'best friends' Murphy's Law and Stan :) 

My pretty boy says hello mummy, I'm glad you came to see me. I really do love this pony, he's taught me so much, and there's so much more to come.

Pretty pony face! He looks so sleepy, I think you can tell that he's growing again at the moment :) 

Until Next Time

  1. Can that halter go any tighter? I think it's too far down on his nose, on the soft cartilage instead of the bone. It's really cute on him though!!

    To help with my insomnia I had to start setting an alarm and making myself get up and stay awake all day so that I would sleep at night. It was so hard and I got very little sleep the first few nights. I didn't have other health things going on though. Your infected tooth and everything is going to make you more tired than normal. :( Setting an alarm and waking up at the same time every day is what helped with my sleeping the most though. I can't sleep during the day no matter how tired I get or how bad I feel or I won't sleep at night. It's so annoying!! I hope you're able to sleep soon.

  2. I did fix his halter in the end! I wasn't sure that it was right but it had been lynn that was popping him out and I was just bringing him in when I got there.

    I'm getting slightly better sleep these days i still don't sleep until like three and four in the morning some days and i still nap occasionally but my doctors said I've just got to do what I need to do to be able to get the sleep that i need if that makes sense :)

  3. It does make sense. I'm the same way. If I can get some extra sleep I do it even if it means messing up my schedule. Adequate sleep is very important. I'm glad you're sleeping 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

possible broken hand x3.

hiya guys well it's been a few days and I was planning on updating you all today. Unfortunately I won't be able to go in to as much detail as I want to because I am having problems typing because it looks like for the third time I have broken my hand again!  In the exact same place, how rubbish is that? But they can't tell me because it will not show up for another two weeks on an X-ray so at the minute it's back in a splint and I've got to go back to hospital in two weeks.  Well Saturday I got to ride Gatsby again. We have been working on getting him in to an outline more consistantly but it took me seeing Fiona riding Pumpkin Pie for me to know what it was that I needed to do for Gatsby to work properly in to an outline. We got some really good work in the walk and trot (I have got pictures) and slowly we are starting to get it in the canter as well but by the time we move on to canter I tend to feel quite tired and weak on my left side. We did an exercise th

Hello strangers!

 Wow it feels like a life time ago since I updated my blog let alone since I actually started first writing this blog. So many things have changed and I’ve kept thinking about restarting this but every time I think about doing it life gets in the way and before you know it I just haven’t done it.  So where do I start, how about with the big fella himself. My midnight magic is now 8! He has a heart of gold and after a particularly rough year is definitely coming out of the other side. Magic is a jumping lover and if you let him pick I think that’s all he’d ever do. He’s spent a lot of time working on his flat work which in the long run has really helped to develop his jumping. Last year magic suffered a horrible injury, he damaged his suspensory ligament on his front left leg and on the same leg damaged the collateral ligament that goes to his coffin joint, unfortunately for him he had a pretty bleak prognosis, with only a 30% of being even field sound. With a little bit of luck, blood,
