Little Bitty Jessops

I wish my mom would have video taped me when I had my wisdom teeth pulled, after coming out of anesthesia! She said that I couldn't talk very well, and was trying to tell her that she was TAN and I loved her! I guess I was drooling a lot. However, this was like 12 years ago, and this video reminded me of my experience. However this father was smart enough to video tape his son recovering from the anesthesia!

I feel sorry for the kid, but it's quite hilarious!

I swear I don't know what I would do with my sanity if I didn't have that little arena and horses to play with. When Shalyce goes down for a nap, it's time for my daily dose of THERAPY! I just take the baby monitor outside with me, plug it in, grab a horse, saddle 'em up, and get moving! Lately I've been working with Addy, and hopefully getting ready for the next show year with her. I could get into all the terms, but it would bore you unless you were a horse freak, like myself.... But for my journal keeping sake here we go: We have worked on the suppling exercises with her rib cage, at the trot and a little at the canter. (Hip to knee) and she started flexing by herself, with just a slight leg cue the other day! She'll flex from side to side. It's hilarious! However, it played out well today. Her canter departures were even better than Saturday. Instead of a HOP up to depart, it was a massive MUSCLE ROLL forward into the canter. This video shows Saturday's canter departures, but todays was even better! I wish I had a video of her awesome STOP. If I had shoes on her I'm sure she'd do a sliding stop. She did have about a 2 foot skid mark the other day, but I don't want to hurt her. I LOVE BUFF QUARTER HORSES! Don't get me wrong, I love my smooth ridin' gaited horses, but that's for the trail, and these Quarter Horses are for sport! The sport of getting better in reining, dressage, jumping can all be done with a QH and I am thankful I have a couple to play with in my backyard! :) I'm thankful I learned so much from my riding instructor back in the day, and very grateful to run onto Clinton Anderson's method now. :) RIDE ON!
