This weekend was extremely busy and i am so tired and sore... but i think i managed to figure out how to fix some of my pictures so i am going to try to get caught up on some picture posting for everyone.
Friday i had to work both jobs so i was not able to make it out to the barn.
Saturday i was up at the crack of dawn to go and help out with the barn chores which was pretty simple other than being freezing cold. I didnt get a ride in since i had to run to Ikea to pick up some new bins for the feed room as well as pick up some feed for G since he is now inside and gets custom feed in the evenings. So currently i have him on Beet pulp, ground flax meal (human grade), Sweet feed and apple eh multivitamin..which will be getting changed to hoffmans once i run out. G already seems much happier minus the horse in the stall next to him hating everything about him lol.
Sunday i went out bright and early before work to drop off all the feed that i had picked up for G as well as the bins and helped put the horses out. Then it was off to Job #2. After work i was lucky enough to stop off at the barn to put a quick ride on G....and he was fantastic it was exactly what we needed right now just a good relaxing easy ride with no spooking no bucking... I can tell that he is much happier being in the barn just with how he responded to my aids.. i was even able to get him to leg yeild down the long wall without him getting to crooked or fast. I tried for a little bit of a canter he went into the canter quite nicely so i figured we would try a figure 8 at the canter to see if he would change leads or if he would try to stay on the same lead.... which he attempted to do and it was a very unorganized and unbalanced canter so we went to work on the leg yeilds. He did great though he was trying so hard and got tons of loving before i had to leave.
Im still working on getting the pictures up... blogger now isnt giving me the option to upload... wtf....

I've been having the same problem with Blogger not wanting to upload my pictures; as a result, I'm super behind on a ton of the showing part of show-and-tell! I guess their having issues with Internet Explorer. . .although now I'm starting to wonder whether or not they're even attempting to fix the issue. . .it's been like this for me for more than a week, and I'm getting sick of waiting around for a solution. Probably just have to go ahead and switch my browser.
ReplyDeleteAnywho, so glad G was super good for your ride (with the exception of the cantering; but hey, you got some leg-yielding). ^.^
