Lil Mama in the saddle

OK, Here is just a little snippet of me on Bob. Keep in mind he hasn't been out in a couple days and is a little stiff. This will be like the beginning and we can watch my progress. I Love and hate to watch my self ride. I love that I can see what needs improvement and I hate that I can see what needs improvement. In my minds eye I ride perfectly. A lot like Lynn Palm. In real life....not so much. I love how you can hear TLC talking in the background. That kid cracks me up.

Draggin A$$

Today I feel like I am just draggin. By draggin I mean haulin my lazy butt around without enthusiasim. I went to the gym this morning and just half assed it. I haven't even changed clothes, and I've been back since 11:00 this moring. The only reason TLC isn't wearing footy pajams is that he had to go to the kid area at the gym and I didn't want people to see what he had for breakfast. (It is always evident on his shirt) Maybe it's the weather. It went from a lovely 70% and sunny. Just enough to pop my daffodills, to 50 and raining...again. This is not condusive to riding I'll have you know.  All I really want to do is sit in my bean bag chair and eat chocolate chips right out of the bag.

On a different note. If you haven't read California Cowgirls blog lately. You should. The other day she posted about our Horseman's club crab feed. It was SO FUN. I put in a picture of a couple of us at the end of the night.

I am in the middle next to Vaquero Girl. Can you tell I cut my hair?

Ugh.

Some days I just feel tired. Poor Vaquero girl never gets to see her little grandson these days. Bob is showing serious signs of arthritis, and Lil Mama is running out of money. I can't wait for the days to get longer, and warmer. I am sick to death of the rain and mud. I am really worried about my poor horse. When he first comes out he is a little lame. (not three legged, it comes and go's and there is no heat in the leg or foot) Just a little hitch in his giddy up. With about 10 to 15 minutes of warm up he no longer limps. Hmmm??? I talked to a couple of my horse buddies. They seem to think it is arthritis. They think if it was anything else it would get worse not better after warm up. Again, hmmm. I don't really have the money to take him to davis to get x-rayed and he is 14 this year. I think I will start him on so glucosomine with condroitin and see if it helps. Does any body have any brand they perticulary like?
