A Good Horse: Living for the Weekends
http://solitairemare.blogspot.com/2015/05/living-for-weekends.html
Monday, May 18, 2015. Living for the Weekends. This past weekend was a good one for me and Joey. The weather was good enough and both rides were just great. I've been slowly, slowly working on flying changes with him. Like slowly over years, LOL. Which started with simple changes, then simple changes with only one trot step between, to clunky flying changes to every once in awhile a perfect change. Almost surprised me how effortlessly he did it! May 18, 2015 at 9:24 PM. May 19, 2015 at 2:44 PM. Somewhere...

A Good Horse: April 2013
http://solitairemare.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 15, 2013. Doing a quick catch up today on some of my favorite blogs and loved this post by my friend at A Horse and a Half. It's a quiz about horse personalities. I laughed at the results for the two horses in her life and decided to take the quiz myself for Joey. Darned if the quiz didn't get it 100% right! Joey is a " Steady Eddie. That is just SOOO him!

A Good Horse: May 2014
http://solitairemare.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 1, 2014. The Struggle of the Tall Boots. They are the English riding discipline's staple item. Some riders live in them. Some break them in and save them for shows, preferring to school in paddock boots and half chaps. Some ride wearing dress boots such as dressage riders or field hunters and the rest of us wear field boots with the lacings over the ankle. And if you have uncommon leg measurements, you are pretty much stuck with expensive custom boots to get the proper show look. I own a pa...

A Good Horse: Rediscovering Myself
http://solitairemare.blogspot.com/2015/05/rediscovering-myself.html
Tuesday, May 12, 2015. I'm a professional artist. I design Halloween costumes, accessories, and seasonal novelty items. It's been my career for the past 28 years. So my days are spent creating things for the company I work for. And it's challenging and can be lots of fun. But after that, I rarely create anything simply for the sake of creating to make me happy. I decided then that I have to go back to creating things that make me happy. What would I be able to leave behind for my family? And something I'...

A Good Horse: What Can I Accomplish With Only 20 Minutes To RIde?
http://solitairemare.blogspot.com/2015/05/what-can-i-accomplish-with-only-20.html
Wednesday, May 13, 2015. What Can I Accomplish With Only 20 Minutes To RIde? Yesterday was probably the only day out of this week I'll get to ride. I was looking forward to it. The work day was long and before I knew it the clock said 6:25PM and I wanted to be on my way to the barn by at least 6:00. That being said, leaving work late means with all I have to do before I can get my horse tacked and in the ring to ride, all I'll get is about 20 minutes before I really lose daylight. So I started riding ben...
