And it all falls down..

Ugh. So I kinda disappeared. Dunno if you noticed. But my world got turned upside down.

Wednesday morning I got a knock on my apt door. Some guy handed me court papers. Um, what? Yeah. Apparently my roomate hadn't paid rent. Coooool. The apartment complex was suing us.

Well, I got on his ass in an instant. Everything got paid, and I dont have to go to court. But, my lease is being terminated at the end of Feb. 

I think I found a place to live. Its a cute little house with some girls I know. Fingers crossed it works out.

So this really threw me for an emotional workout. Poor Ries had to suffer without rides because I was so stressed. Everytime I went to the barn I was left a lone with my own thoughts. I wanted to vomit from anxiety. 

I went out to play with my boy today though. He was having a thoroughbred day lol. But I have cute pics. 

He reeaaallly didnt want me to get on. He was pretty much begging me to lunge him. 

But alas, I was able to get on afterwords. He was still wound up so I pretty much just trotted. 

We really werent aiming for a correct frame. I mostly just wanted him to relax. He got so freaking sweaty. A fantastic time to try out my new full body cooler!


Omg. Yes. Ebay came in to save the day! I couldn't find one used, and didn't feel like spending a fortune. Got this one for $37.95 plus shipping. The fleece is thin enough to allow for fast evaporation, but thick enough to keep him warm.

The brand is Derby Originals and I bought it from Tack Whole Sale. Super pleased with the product and had fast delivery! Poor Riesy has such a long back he needed an XL. It's hard when you are 16.2 TB and a blanket size 82/84. 

But that is a catch up on my life. I have some awesome ideas for blog posts. Can winter be over?
