I'm Still Alive!!!

Yes, believe it or not, I am still here!

Moving is a big adventure. Especially when it involves 2 horses, a bunch of fish, a leopard gecko, and lots of plastic ponies. And a spur-of-the-moment bunk bed.

Now there's Charlie, my recently adopted cat and Timmy, my roommate's new Golden Retriever.

It's a zoo!

On top of everything else, my checking account was compromised. What a mess! Luckily, it's getting slowly back together, but it's been a BIG FAT MESS!!!

As far as the horsey-stuff goes, I've picked up a few new Breyers now, some Stablemates and the new Classics Paint horse. Wow, that one is a stunner! My biggest purchase of late is a nice pair of  Easyboot Epics for my gelding. I love having my boy barefoot, it's done wonders for his hooves! And he seems to like the boots so far. I haven't had a chance to really try them on the rough terrain yet, I will soon though.

And photos. I will have photos soon. I hope :P

More New Stuff

First off, it's another Breyerfest SR,

Prince of Chintz

I don't like him. At all. In fact, the ONLY thing I like about him is the Espirit mold. Everything else (the flowers) makes me gag. Apparently though, quite a few hobbyists disagree with me. That's good, every model needs a few fans.

I'm glad there's still nothing I absolutely NEED at BF this year...hoping it stays that way!


The second new model to pop up in the past few days is much nicer, in my opinion.

This guy was a special offer for the Vintage Club members. From the gossip I've heard from member friends, extras (if there are any) will be offered to the Collector's Club. He's a cute horse for sure, and he's getting a lot of attention. Most of us figured there'd be an Old Timer in the VC horses somewhere, and he's finally popped up!

As far as my life goes, there's a few new things here as well.

First of all, my current obsession with jumping! This has lead to dusting off my riding helmet, collecting old wooden poles, new cues for Whiskey and me, and digging old tires full of putrid water out of 3 feet of weeds...

Please don't judge my lack of 2-point...I'm a Western rider and I'm still learning!

And then there's my brand-spankin' new HOTT PINK SADDLE BAGS!!! They also have a bunch of pockets which makes them even better!

Doesn't my gelding look sexy in hot pink? :o)
