So, one of my favorite meme’s on facebook is the face of a horse facing the photographer with the caption”Hay Girl” “That is your name, right??”who knew when I went to college to get an animal science degree, that I would actually spend Sooooo much time thinking about Hay. I also thought it would be all about horses, and riding, and science and how much I knew. Yet, here I am at 50 something, still learning, and 27% of my day spent thinking about hay, how much to feed, how much it will cost, if its moldy, or poor quality, or this time of the year.. do I have enough to make it thru until July, when my new crop will arrive at my barn. What I wish I knew when I was getting that animal science degree, was so much less about horses, and so much more about the day to day happenstance that comes with owning horses in your own back yard, and running a small side business of lessons, and boarding.. So, since I think I have so much to say, here is where I will say it.
