I'm in a shitty mood today but decided to go see my mare-face and to water her paddock. Here's how the grass looks now. The birds were hanging out eating some of the seeds, which I knew they would do, but I put over 50 pounds of grass seed in this little paddock, so I think it's fine. I went a little over board.
Mare-face is doing well. Her lump on her left hind is almost gone! I'm pretty impressed with that, but still can't ride her until I get her teeth done. I didn't realize just how bad they were until today. (Note: Bad for anal horse mom, probably normal for 99% of the horse owner population.) She is getting a rub mark on her face from where the tooth is rubbing from the inside. No ulcers in her mouth, and not super sharp, but I'm still not going to bit her up.
Not sure if I mentioned on here about our dressage show on Sunday. We scored a 61.5 and a 61. I was happy with those scores. I got a lot of 6's and even a few 7's which just made my day. Even though the judge seemed to score high, I was appreciative of the comments. We had a pretty good intro A and a solid (Monster Morgan and Me solid) test B.
I can't even think straight at this point... Have a great night!!!

LOL, I feel your pain, only my days are 8:30 to 5 or later :)
Work in general is tiring..then add to it, wanting to see your horse, spend 3-5 hrs there, etc. it's not an easy feat.

Hehe you make me giggle... I am 25 and NOT a working student but working at a barn 6 days a week starting anywhere between 7 and 9, and finishing anywhere between 5 and 10pm. Depending on the day. Usually no lunch. You wimp!!
