BK :>Best start working out to improve the circulation.. it was
BK :>the smoking that cut down your circulation to your hands
BK :>and feet.. it's happening here to. My hands and feet are
BK :>colder this year then ever before. 
I keep thinking I'll quit after the 1st of the year.  It would be worth the 
pain just to be able to stay out in the cold longer than a few minutes 
without my fingers and toes going numb.  And, to be able to walk for more 
than a few feet without being out of breath (g).  I envy Jean Prophet!  What 
guts!!!
BK :>Hee Hee.. Tush is not as neat as Mom.. Mom picks out a spot
BK :>and does her poop in it.. Tush is not as selective.. ;)
Fiddle is a mix master!  You could clean her stall three times a day, and 
she'd still find a way to mix her manure up with the clean shavings.  Shiloh 
is much neater.  She poops in one place...gotta love this horse!
BK :>I have to muck her stall at night unless I want a blond
BK :>with green polka dots! ;)
Shiloh may poop in one place, but that's also the place where she tends to 
lie down...nothing like a roan appy with spots that aren't the right color 
(g).
BK :>OH YES! Rode the heck out of CJ Sun.. two rides! Both at a
BK :>good strong dressage trot.. with some loping at the end of
BK :>the second.. unfortunately she's still in the "YAHOO!"
BK :>stage where I have to deal with a mare that wants to crow
BK :>hop when you put her into a lope.. ;)
BK :>
BK :>It'll pass.. ;)
Fiddle does that too.  Must be a mare thing (g).  I just laugh at her and 
move her on.  Been working on the longe with not letting her buck or put her 
head down at the canter depart.  She seems to be getting the picture.  She's 
such a willing little thing...I don't know why I say such awful things about 
her (g)!
BK :>Straw is getting put into a very strick routine.. I't taken
BK :>far to much to get him out of his spoiled rotten routine..
OK...my old timers is kicking in...tell me who Straw is again.  Sounds like 
you're doing good things with him, though.  Glad the owner is starting to 
cooperate...make your job easier!
BK :>starting to respond..  Straw may well get shown next year
BK :>in Pinto. ;)
Oh  no!!!  Showing!!  Can we stand this again (g)!!?
I've been having these psychotic flashes of showing Shiloh next year at a 
local show or two....someone call the Doctor!!!  Send me Prozak!!
