Spring into Summer!

It's been months! So far, a lot has happened. I might have to post bits and pieces to make this manageable but I guess I'll start with the latest news.

In March I had lovely news: Jill Schnedler of Coldbrook Equestrian Center continues to trash talk about me. It really disgusts me that she has nothing better to do. The new rumors floating in the air say A) I didn't pay board for 7 or 8 months (I've heard 2 different versions), B) I left in the middle of the night, C) I stole a bunch of stuff, D) I was never at the barn, and E) I didn't care about my horses (specifically Louize).It's funny though. I was only there for 4 months, we did pay board (only deducting amounts of money that she owed us), we also paid for all of July and stayed for only 3 days, if I left in the middle of the night then I'm sure that Hampden police officer we brought with us wouldn't be happy to be there, and if we had stolen anything, why didn't she tell the officer that was there with us? I also like to add that if I was never at the barn, why did she bring two pitchforks for chores? One for me and one for her? Why did she ask me if I wanted to do hay or water? If we left in the middle of the night, why were helpers at the barn and why was it light out when we arrived at Jason's? What, did we keep the horses in the trailer overnight? I think not. Coldbrook Equestrian is clearly not a very good place if she tells these things to someone she doesn't even know, a person who worked at my current barn, a person who then went behind my back and told people these lies. Don't worry. I called her out on it and she's no longer at my barn. Jill is out of my life. Forever. She can run her mouth but I haven't said anything like that about her and I don't plan on it. I'm not going to lower myself to her level and spread lies. To boot, most of her fences are on the ground now... VERY safe next to a busy road...

Also, the Dixons have left Jill's barn! They brought their three OTTBs from Bits & Bytes Farm to my barn. They were quite underfed. Poor things! There were not that skinny when I last saw them in July so I'm proud of the Dixons for taking the appropriate step for their horses' health. Apparently Jill Schnedler was feeding their grain to her horses because she couldn't afford to feed them herself. The Dixons seem to be happy and so are their horses. Endless hay and NO barn drama! It's very peaceful and nice at Triple D Stables in Eddington, Maine!

News at the barn: There are now three new litters of kittens (the oldest being 6 weeks old) and there's a new percheron foal! She's about two months old now and the cutest thing ever. Her name is "Silver Lace" (Lacey) because she's got a silverish color to her coat. She's very sweet! Also, the other filly is about 9 months old. She's taller than 15hh and her name is "Amazing Grace" (Gracie). She's also very sweet.

Tomorrow is also the day that I am taking Yada to a clinic! It's a western clinic (though I usually ride English) but it will be a great learning experience for the both of us! My mom is currently in Ireland so it's my first solo ride with the trailer and my mom's truck. Should be interesting! It's also Yada's first time (that I know of) riding alone in the trailer so I hope she doesn't mind. I will tell you one thing, I'm going to drive as carefully as possible. Hopefully all goes well! I'll start posting more frequently, or at least try.
