Sunday was one for the record books. One of those days, that are so amazing in their simplicity that you realize what you’ve been missing. Originally L and I had grand plans to have a giant group of people and get goofy and crazy during dollar days over at the local track (Golden Gate Fields). […]
Hi there.. I’m alive, promise… If you were anyone short of my boss or my mother you might think otherwise, life sorta hijacked and struck me over the head with a two by four… But I’m here, attempting to keep my head above water at work after a two week break. Prepping for the 6 […]
(Side note: this did not publish yesterday when it was supposed to) So Monday was Mouse’s first day back after two weeks off. When I texted my trainer after the quote that pretty much sums it up is this “I know I want to be a rodeo queen, but that was more rodeo than I […]
Merry Christmas!!! I have had one of the best holidays on record. No crazy presents to report, some pretty and preppy clothes, a pretty piece of horsey artwork but the best was my daddy did make me a pretty awesome bridle.

It’s been a bit since I have updated y’all on my adventure towards the pageant, blame it on queening! So as any rider in the history of the earth knows this sport takes a LOT of stuff and is almost never cheap. Well when I decided to get into queening I figured that it couldn’t be […]
“Those who can’t do teach…” I abhor this quote for a variety of reasons, one of which it hits a little close to home being that I am a coach myself. I may not be the best at it and certainly have quite the learning curve, but I got to thinking, is this quote valid […]
I am a parrot head, my mother is the woman to blame in that situation, but I grew up listening to and loving mister Buffett. However this morning as I very grumpily rolled out of bed, I realized ole Jimmy fails to make the distinction that the only good 5 o’clock is the PM one. […]
