'Fraidy Cat Eventing: constructive criticism v. public shaming
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/2015/07/constructive-criticism-v-public-shaming.html
Thursday, July 9, 2015. Constructive criticism v. public shaming. Ok This is a tirade-ish post. Just warning ya. And as always, my opinions are based on my experiences in the horse world. Your mileage may vary (please feel free to chime in! Also - the scenario I'm about to describe is unrelated to this blog. I am so grateful for everyone who reads and takes time to comment - really thank you! I've felt nothing but support and encouragement from this little community, and I hope that never changes.

'Fraidy Cat Eventing: off we go to a jumper show
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/2015/08/off-we-go-to-jumper-show.html
Sunday, August 16, 2015. Off we go to a jumper show. So our much-anticipated return to showing (after a 1.5 month hiatus lol) begins today at Tranquility for a couple jumper classes. That tail tho - so majestical! Really it's going to (hopefully) be a very low-pressure, easy peasy day. I'm not riding for ribbons, and I'm not riding for speed. August 16, 2015 at 1:35 AM. Im excited for your show and Im dying over the jumping girl. Oh my goodness! The questions is, should she be wearing a helmet? The quest...

'Fraidy Cat Eventing: and the rails fly!
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/2015/07/and-rails-fly.html
Thursday, July 30, 2015. And the rails fly! Despite not getting as much saddle time as I would have liked in preparation for our weekly lesson (especially considering Isabel's brief vacation while I was in Nola), things actually went pretty well! It was wretched hot out, but Kaitlyn (from Something to Talk About Eventing. And I were determined to make the best of it. Izzy got some air! She claimed the bugs were eating her alive. i was not particularly sympathetic haha. Yes, this - i like doing this!

'Fraidy Cat Eventing: a brief history
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/p/a-brief-history.html
I've always been obsessed with horses - despite growing up in Baltimore City in a decidedly non-horsey family. So my parents made me a deal: if I saved up enough allowance money to pay for 10 riding lessons, they would take over from there. And so it began. Hooked from day 1. We didn't show, per se, except for one big year-end event that was a closed-barn demonstration to show our parents where their money went. Trainer liked drill patterns performed to military tunes. go figure. Discipline. And I fe...

'Fraidy Cat Eventing: last lesson before the HT
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/2014/09/last-lesson-before-ht.html
Sunday, September 28, 2014. Last lesson before the HT. We had our last lesson at OF on Saturday before today's horse trial (! It was also the first time we jumped since the combined training last week, as I've been focusing exclusively on dressage. I got to the barn early to do the stalls etc while someone else fed. Isabel's SMZ course just ended Friday, and she had been getting breakfast in addition to her normal dinner to facilitate the medication. Well hey there good lookin, come here often? She got t...

'Fraidy Cat Eventing: canter transitions by puppetry
http://fraidycateventing.blogspot.com/2015/08/canter-transitions-by-puppetry.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. Canter transitions by puppetry. Or, in other words: another dressage lesson with trainer C. Or, in even more. Words: More blurry and dark. Video stills of us trotting around with a marginally improved degree of fancy! I clearly embrace the blur. (is that an oxymoron? Due to an overabundance of vacation days nearing their expiration date, I took the day off in anticipation of the DC trip to meet Austen and Alli and attend the DOC clinic. A couple weeks ago. I hunch a LOT less these...
