What a whirlwind of activity! Everyday has had at least one thing planned - not the least of which was Christmas itself.
M and E know me well - I was given a pair of fabulous muck boots and a bucket of grooming brushes on Christmas morning. I was so excited to get these things! I know, I'm a hopeless horse person these days! I had to laugh at myself the other day when I was feeling a tiny bit envious of friends and family who had received rather grand gifts this year. Then I paused for a moment and realized that I receive a HUGE gift every day in the shape of my horse. :)
What a shaggy pony!Riding has been impossible for me with all the snow, ice and rain we've been getting. I have gone out to brush Zoe and work her in the round pen a bit, but that's all. E squeezed in a short ride around the barnyard and we were able to trailer to a jumping lesson on Sunday, but that's been it for horse activities.
Zoe's winter coat looks better these days, so I think the supplement must be helping some. I think I may add black sunflower seeds to her diet as well. I've been told that would help bring out some shine; her fur still seems a little dull and dry to me. I really can't wait to give her a good bath. She is absolutely filthy! But it may be a few months before we can manage that task.
