Ok, so things at the real barn got BUSY. My horse is having bad back issues(the chiro is coming out on Saturday so hopefully she can help). He got so bad that he almost got me off twice(though it didn't help that cantering towards a mirror scared the crap out of him...)
Secondly, one of the barn boarders has gone to mexico for the week and left me and my grandmother with their horribly spooking and evil horse who has had an eye ulcer for almost three weeks now, and now we have to deal with catching him(not as easy as it sounds my friends), tying him up and sticking 'eye drops' and two things of ointment in his eye(Yippee! *sarcasm*)
The young girl who left with her mom to mexico is having the vet ride this horse she's terrified of and the vet is too busy to deal with a young horse that hasn't been ridden(consistently) for about... four years. He used to be a trail riding kind of horse before his owner got busy(whole other side to that story not going into).
And fourthly(My honest to god favorite, I got lucky). I'm being paid $250 a month to exercise a retired Silver Olympian horse named McKinlaigh(this includes grooming and ect.).
Oh... and I'm helping a greenhorn find a horse that, well frankly, won't kill him... or me. We haven't had much luck yet.... :/
But anyways. As you can tell... I'm booked for the week, and it sounds like it's only gonna get harder(I have a few things possibly set up next week and they sound ... time consuming).
I'm SO Sorry. I know I just joined, I'll try really REALLY hard to be on, but if I disappear for a while it means honestly, the real horses that live, breath, and break easily, needed me more than my computer and this site. It's just the tough truth so I hope you don't delete me, I honestly like this site and would like to actually experience it first before you cut me loose.
My character is Marie Ava Smith, she has four(three made, one never finished) horses Donte, Whitney, Wintermaske.
