There are so many, but a cure for autoimmune diseases like lupus would be incredible. My father's side of the family is plagued by lupus, and I have it. It killed both of my grandparents and will like kill my father and uncle. It'll probably also kill me.

If I could cure lupus and diseases like it, I would. I'd want to save the world from the suffering it causes.

My bestie is my horse. My dogs are my babies.

The bond with dogs and horses is very different and it's hard to describe.

I mean, it's a boarding barn so the blind horses have owners. They pay to keep them there and the folks who run the farm care for the horses. I like how they have their own field here, though. You drive right past the blind field to get to the barn and I turn up myusic and drive extra slow because the horses get interested in the music. I love seeing their ears perk up

I'd say that she could me Shadowfax's main mare, but Sandy has absolutely no time for male horses. She spurns all of the geldings' advances and even kicked one persistent one right in the face. Her besties in the herd are two old mares name Princess and Jewel. Sometimes the old mare named Fancy is Sandy's friend, but Fancy's prone to mood swings so she isn't consistent in who she hangs out with.

Had to drop off some things at the barn and helped put a big ol tractor together, so I didn't have time to hang with Sandy. That's okay, though. I yelled her name and she got very confused then went back to eating like 30 seconds later.

Lmao I love how folks are telling the VOICE OF GOD ON EARTH that he's wrong.

(I'm an atheist and don't believe it, but this whole situation is hilarious.)

The Sandy Saga has been like all I've posted for two years, so if you wanna start from the beginning, the first post is in my profile somewhere lol.

Sandy is def my bestie and I'm glad you enjoyed the post! She's gone leaps and bounds further than I expected her to when I started with her. All the literal blood, sweat, tears, time, and $$$$$ I've put into her has really paid off.

She would NOT stand still by the mounting block at first and once I got her still and I got into the saddle, she wanted to keep taking me to the gate out of the arena. I was not about that and I just made her stand in the middle of the arena and any time she moved forward towards the gate, I made her back up to the original spot. She was very frustrated with me, but got over herself eventually and stopped trying to go to the gate. That took like 15 minutes and getting in the saddle took 10 before that. Once she was standing and being good for a bit, I ended the session so we'd finish on a good note. It wasn't much of a ride, but these things take time.

I do need to get a new girth though, because the one I've been using is rubbing a little bit and will def be uncomfy if I keep using it on her. So I'm gonna get that ordered before I get on her again.

The papa cat is also all orange. Lil dude had no chance for braincells

She's a bay roan quarter horse. She's very sweet but can be bitey at times. She seems to be doing well with her training.

165

Face reveaaaaal! Pls ignore my serious concentration face. I make the worst facial expressions when riding lmao.

He didn't scream at me when I picked him up yesterday.

244

She remembers all of her training and was so well behaved!

169

Got a rope halter to use for bridling. She was unsure of it at first and it took a couple tries for her to let me get it on her all the way lol.

W also utilized the covered round pen because the arena was very wet from rain.

He is apprehensive about me despite mama cat trying to show him that I'm cool.

122

Shedding blades are great omg. Makes it so much easier lol

248

He followed me around the farm while I worked with my mare. My mare thought he was great. He even let her sniff him.

10/10 best helper

117

She gave me a hell of a time with her bridle. I put her back in her halter so I could have easier control while bridling and once it was on, she was fine because she realized the bit tasted good.

She's gonna be one of those halter under the bridle horses until she's used to everything again.

Nobody rode her today. We just did groundwork and hung out while she was tacked up.
