Here I am, all alone in the kitchen. Because who needs a life?

In 20 minutes I'll go and see if everything's okay with the horses.

Like I said, who needs a life? I could be spending time with friends, go see a movie, maybe shopping, anything.. HAHA LOL NO I don't have any friends here :D At times I reeeally hate living 13km away from civilisation. Really hate. Like now, when I've spent 3 days oh well evenings to be honest in a row in this very same position in the kitchen with my computer. I've also cleaned the house and done laundry twice. Thank God I have Friday and Saturday off... Wait what? What am I supposed to do on days off if I'm this bored on work days? No idea.

Today morning it was nice at work. I started at 9 as usually by bringing Annie and Mocara from the field. Then I mucked out and groomed and tacked up Pony.

I wanted to get rid of all the excess energy Pony has, so I decided to ride him in the jumping field. He was even better than yesterday, bucked maybe once or twice and submitted the second I properly took contact. At first I just did some circles in trot etc, normal warm-up and all that. Then I did the same in canter, just trying to keep him relaxed and somewhat collected. After walking for a while I then just let him gallop as fast as he wanted to. He got so excited and was so happy :) After that I did some exercises to get him under control again, and then let him cool down properly.

Mocara had a couple days off and then yesterday I went out for a walk and 5 min of trot with him, and today he was good and energetic. He's still a bit tired, but it's good to remember that he IS 26 years old... Light work for him then :)

Sorry no pictures
