Time Off

Mystic has had a few days off this past week. He came out just a tad funny on Tuesday and I am not sure if it was just because I had ridden a different horse just before or what but I didn't want to push it. It wasn't awful he just felt different switching directions which is not usually the case. He was happy to walk down the road so I did that and called it a day. Since then I have been house sitting about 40 minutes away from the barn so I haven't even seen him since Wednesday. On top of that one of the dogs I am house sitting is old and on his last leg so I basically could get there to find him dead. That is not something I would enjoy (from previous experience) so I try to get there at a reasonable time just in case. Thankfully I have him eating good and he seems happy and well considering! Sunday I will head out and see how Mystic feels. When I lunged him I couldn't see anything so I think it just may have been my imagination but better its always better to be safe than sorry.

As long as all is well we can get back to work for the next week and a half before I leave for spring break family vacation! All of us kids were told that we were going to Vegas which had us super excited and ready to get out of town for a week. Well it turns out that we are not going to Vegas... we are going on a cruise to Mexico! It was supposed to be a surprise but someone leaked so we all found out :) The next 2 weeks cannot go by fast enough! This also means that Pony will most likely have a week off which is not ideal. I told one of my friends that she can ride him but she also has her horse so I am not sure if she will have time or not. I was hoping to hit a league show on the 5th of April but I'm not sure I should swing it if he won't be in work for over a week just before.

Mylo got some new big boy 'toys'

Is that not the cutest thing you have seen?! I am starting to think about where to send him late summer to get started. I have a few ideas, we will just see how it all pans out. I keep telling him if he just decided to sprout up all our problems would go away!
