I am beginning to believe, that our seasons are shifting.  January and February seem to have become one 60 month, March seems to be a mix of February and maybe March, and I don’t even know what April wanted to be this year… cold, and Mapril….someone told me yesterday that we had had 22 days of rain in April,  all I know is, for an April it was cold.  This cold and wet will affect how the grass grows, when the hay will be cut, and there for will affect ME and my already limited supply of hay.  Keeping the horses off my limited supply of grazing areas.  It has been a slow start to lessons, and I waffle with keeping on, or getting an hourly, full time job, which would limit my horse time, but alleviate some of the stress of paying for dried grass tied up with strings.  My horses are happy, and we had a new arrival yesterday to board. She is actually a working boarder, so there is something in it for me I hope.  It was fun to take in the face of the young girl whose dream had just walked down the aisle way of my barn..   Today’s list of things to do….includes putting fences back together, hammers and nails, slogging thru the mud, along with my list of the usual.   The spring greens of leaves, and grass inspire me, in spite of the fact that it is raining… its a good thing I won’t melt.  Off to hay.  k

It seems as if the winter of 2018/2019 just wont leave, today is just about freezing, and that is by 1 degree.  Its a cross between mud season and snow, and the search for enough hay to tide me over is on. The blog fell by the wayside, I was feeling too angry and disappointed in my family, and I wanted this blog to be about horses, and caring for them. So, hopefully I can focus on the horses and my journey with them.
