Dressage Mom: A Familiar Feeling

http://dressagemom.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-familiar-feeling.html

I'm a wife and mother with a full-time job who also has two Arabian dressage horses. This is how I fit it all in. Or try to. Saturday, July 25, 2015. Phil and I have been putting in some great rides lately. We had a fantastic lesson three weeks ago and, as usual, my trainers instruction has helped in huge ways. At first Phil resisted but my trainer told me just to be firm. And after a few minutes, Phil relaxed his neck and established contact. THIS IS HUGE! My bit evading horse, making contact? Today, th...

Dressage Mom: June 2015

http://dressagemom.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

I'm a wife and mother with a full-time job who also has two Arabian dressage horses. This is how I fit it all in. Or try to. Friday, June 19, 2015. Then of course I wanted pictures because it was a beautiful day. I was following them a round to try and get a good shot. I had to call their names to get them to pick their heads up. Phil was pretty cooperative. Kaswyn, on the other hand, was completely ignoring me,. Finally he got sick of me calling his name and pestering him, so he threw me some shade.

Dressage Mom: OSU trip 2008 - Part 1

http://dressagemom.blogspot.com/2008/05/osu-trip-2008-part-1.html

I'm a wife and mother with a full-time job who also has two Arabian dressage horses. This is how I fit it all in. Or try to. Friday, May 16, 2008. OSU trip 2008 - Part 1. This was his first trip backwards, and I think he liked it because we only heard one little bump on the first corner and after that he didn't move at all. Traveling backwards must make it easier for him to balance or something. The drive to OSU from our area is about two and a half hours. It's almost all highway so it's an easy driv...

http://dressagemom.blogspot.com/2015/05/loose.html

I'm a wife and mother with a full-time job who also has two Arabian dressage horses. This is how I fit it all in. Or try to. Thursday, May 07, 2015. I ride Phil outside again today. It was really lovely. The footing was perfect, the breeze kept the bugs off of us, and Phil was a pretty good boy. I was cleaning up the wash rack when I heard Phil nicker in a strange way, and then I heard hoof steps in the aisle. Since I was the only one at the barn, I found this somewhat alarming.

I've been contacted by more than one person asking how I manage husband, kids, work, and still find time to train and ride dressage, so I thought I'd dedicate a series to the subject. It's got to be a series because it's far too complicated to fit into one post. Next up, Part 2 - Our Girls. Good for you guys. That is impre...

Today when I got to the barn I went to check the outdoor arena before I decided where to ride. Since it had rained off and on all day I was concerned that the outdoor would be too wet. To my delight, the footing was perfect,. Of course I lunged Phil first, and I was able to get some pics. Check mah boy out! Kaswyn is doing well too! What a handsome man! Over ...

This story is not about what you think it's about. It's the story of what happened to my second horse trainer, who was my first dressage trainer. The story of what happened to my first horse trainer starts. This story doesn't end the same way, but it was still full of strife. And drama. There's always drama at the barn. Over the year...
