Back In The Saddle, Again

October 5th, 2008

I spent most of the morning working on “my” shed project.  I call it mine because great husband is on the road and I am the carpenter/Jane-of-all-trades when he is gone.  The boys helped me finish the outside panels - there are 5, 8 foot long plywood panels - they are supposed to keep the rain and wind out of the shed (there used to be screened “windows”).  Then I went inside to work on one of the “cubbies”… I am trying to put in some shelves for all of my plastic boxed things, holiday decorations and fix up the tack area.  I will post a pic of the “cubby” when I get one of them done.

Then, this afternoon, I went out to the horses - cleaned feet, combed manes and brushed them - all 3 that are ours.  Then I saddled Biggin for my first ride on him.  While I was saddling him, my BFF Nicole, came to drop off feed for her horse, Zzari.  We both rode Biggin in the round pen and we both enjoyed our ride.  He is very smart and figures out what we ask of him within a few minutes.  He is actually for great husband to ride.  When he has his first ride, I will post pics.

This is me.
