HOTSTUFF GOT SHOES ON TONIGHT WHAT A DIFFERENCE. I ACTUALLY CAN WORK HIM AND WHAT AN A AMAZING ANIMAL HE IS. I LOVE TO WATCH HORSES TRANSFORM AND HE IS DOING IT IN LEAPS AND BOUNDS. NOT ONE BUCK OUT OF HIM TONIGHT SO I DECIDED TO TRY IT, SO I GOT ON HIS BACK AND MOVED HIM AROUND AND THAN DID SOME LONG TROTS WITH HIM AND BIT THE BIG ONE. I ASKED HIM TO CANTER AND HE DID FIRST ONE STRIDE THAN 2 THAN ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE ARENA. IT WAS AMAZING! HE IS AMAZING, IT LITERALLY BROUGHT TEARS INTO MY EYES. THE CHIROS ARE REALLY WORKING THANK U SO MUCH DR PATTY, AGAIN!!!!

I KNOW IT HAS BEEN A WHILE. KEN IS GONE FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS AND IT IS ME AND THE GIRLS. WE ARE SURVIVING, JUST TRYING TO KEEP BUSY. WORK IS GOIN OK AND TRAINING HORSES ARE GETTING LESS. YEE HAW!!! I ACTUALLY RODE REBEL THIS WEEK TRYING TO GET HIM PREPARED FOR THE UNDERDOWN ,SINCE THE LAST RIDE HE WAS A LITTLE SOFT ON ME. TOTALLY MY FAULT. HOTSTUFF IS FINALLY GOING FORWARD HE SHOWED ME A LOT OF PENT UP BUCKING TODAY, WHICH WAS A GOOD THING SINCE I KNEW IT WAS IN THEIR SOMEWHERE. WELL HE GOT OVER IT ONCE HE FIGURED OUT THEY HE STILL HAD TO WORK. WE WILL SEE WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS. ALSO CONGRATS TO ROBIN WHO PURCHASED YOGI HE IS TRULY IN GREAT HANDS.

IT WAS A HOT ONE TODAY AND ALL THE HORSES DID WELL TONIGHT AFTER HAVING THE WEEKEND OFF. PIPER WAS A LITTLE HOT TO TROT AT FIRST BUT SOON REALIZED IT WAS NOT GOING TO GET HIM ANYWHERE AND SETTLED IN. I ACTUALLY EVEN LUNGED REBEL TONIGHT TO TRY TO GET SOME TUBBY OFF OF HIM, GOOD LUCK TO ME. I GUESS THAT HAPPENS WHEN I RIDE EVERYONE ELSES HORSES---THEY PAY THE BILLS. LOL! AS FOR MR HOT STUFF OUR ADVENTURE IS JUST BEGINNING. WE ARE STILL LEARNING EACH OTHER AND TODAY WAS HIS FIRST DAY BACK TO WORK AFTER HIS CHIRO. HE WAS AMAZING! I ACTUALLY WAS MOVING ON HIM AND HE DID NOT SEEM SO DEPRESSED. I WORKED HIM ABOUT 30 MINUTES WITH MY SADDLE ON, WHICH HAS ALL THE FIXINS AND HE DID NOT SEEM TO BE BOTHERED BY IT. WE EVEN DID A LITTLE TROTTING. WE ALSO WORKED ON SUPPLENESS AND FOCUS ALL WENT WELL. UNTIL NEXT TIME.

WE THOUGHT THIS PICTURE WAS COMICAL IT LOOKS LIKE ROBIN IS RIDING ON THE BACK OF REBEL-----NOT!!!!
