A tough day

Yesterday I was so tired and exhausted that I just had to forget all about writing on my blog. I had two stables shifts yesterday. The first was at the stable where my horses are. I had to feed all the horses, give them hay on the fields, provide water and let them out. It was quite nice actually and I had the shift with a really sweet woman. I was a little excited to handle the stallions, you never know if they can be aggressive or fiery, but they were just so well-behaved that I completely forgot it was stallions I walked with!

After I had mucked my own boxes I had to drive to Roskilde where my school is located. There I also had  a weekend shift. I had to muck 9 boxes, give them breakfast, lunch and dinner hay and then I had to let the horses in from the feilds.

So I was active since 7 am until 5 pm. It's a long day, especially when you are sick and there are half a meter snow and -6 degrees.

Glamorous day!

Today I have done notthing more glamorous all day, then I've mucked all the horses boxes and then I got all the horses from the feild and let them into the stable and fed them. Yay, exciting, huh? But it's also a part you have to take with you when you have a horse. It's not just about the riding, there is much more work to it than most people think. However, I love all aspects of having a horse!

I trained Giga very briefly, her concentration wasn't there today, and they had just gotten their food, so it wasn't the best time to demand anything of her. So we went for a walk inside the indoor arena. And then she got peace from me :-)

She is in turn become really good at standing still when I ask her to.

Happiness can be found in the quiet wind that blows between the ears of a small cold blooded horse, dancing through the snow, while the sun sets over the forest in a ocean of ​​golden clouds.
