Mustang Saga

Tonka and I had a wonderful little ride with Amy and Levi today. I expected Tonka to be a booger because of the wind but he wasn't at all. It got me feeling all warm and fuzzy toward my horse. But I was all cold and freezing on the outside. That wind was not nice!

Levi wasn't doing too well so we had to cut the ride short. He was all sucked up and tight in the hind end. He's the one with EPSM and kidney failure. He just wasn't up to the exercise today, so he only got about a quarter mile worth of riding and maybe a mile of walking.

The short ride left Tonka wishing for more, which is probably a good thing.

Oh, I used his new bit for the second time. It's a full cheek snaffle with a roller that I bought last fall. We've been mostly using the bosal lately. He really seems to like this bit. He was pretty soft in it.

We're still waiting to find out if Amy is in stage four cancer or not. There's a big communication mix-up between the different doctors' offices. Probably won't hear anything until Monday. Very frustrating. Especially because she should have started radiation by now.

Tonight is the Mustang Club meeting up in Spokane. I'm missing it because I didn't think to ask for an early parent/teacher conference time. Really regretting that.
