Stella Can Fly - 6 panel N/N

Gonna be a big girl !!

Smart as they come, doesn't protest much about new things. Blankets, ties, leads, loads, trimmed, dewormed on schedule, loads. Quiet nature, not unathletic, quiet.

“I spend so much time in the struggle I’m not even sure I have a personality left.”

That comment hit me hard.

I’m an incredibly hard worker, but I struggle day to day wondering if I’ll ever make enough to keep a roof over my head, let alone keep my horses. Hard work does not guarantee success, especially if you’re working hard in all the wrong places, and that’s where I feel I’m at with no one to show me the right way.

It’s truly numbing. I don’t even know who to ask to point me in the right direction. Everyone says, “just work harder,” but no one says on what, how or where. I’ve had many ideas over the years, but the burnout I now feel has stripped me of any desire to pursue them because you can only work yourself so hard for so long when you never see the end of the road.

I know things will get better, but having to rely on only you will take its toll.

Just keep swimming.

Our overnight stays are closed until this passes.

The Barrel Futurities of America World Championships held November 15 - 22 at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma, was cancelled November 18 through the remainder of the event due to a confirmed positive case of EHV.

After a trim today, Jerrik wanted to ride baby Spud ( aka Biankus Silver Cat ) and so why not 🤣
Baby Spud, is used to Jerrik all over the place, power wheels, dogs, cats, choas...

Another great training horse in for some additional eduction.

Not every training horse is a problem horse, some times its adding more cues, consistency owners can't provide due to work or their abilities.

Some times its just having a trainer get new cues and training installed and retained for the horse and owners catch up with lessons.

It takes longer for a horse and rider to learn together and sometimes the frustration wins before the goal is achieved. Its not impossible but it takes a special level of self awareness and coaching to get better alone and train one.

Something I preach a lot, every ride you are training wether it's good or bad or just holding what the horse has and not losing it, but you are training.

Excited to see what 30 days on this horse will look like ❤️

This is why I ride all my boarders on timely deworming, twice a year is not enough !!!! I would spend my last $20 to deworm my horse after the freeze. Thank god its been years since I spent my last $20 but there was a time

His lil guy starts his day with me rolling out of bed and feeding horses a tad bit after daylight this time of year and we get so much done in a day. He runs my shavings bags to the trash can, he knows all the boarding horses and their grain snack bags, he gives me countless heart attacks a day chasing the cats and dogs and disappearing, he naps so I can ride 🤣 I have help now while I give lesson, we finish our day outside around 730 pm feeding, some days with me, some days I have help.
