Wow! It's been a bit of time since my last post. I've been busy losing my shoes and mom's been busy trying to find the money to pay for them!
Hint Hint... Buy stuff from mom's store so she can afford me!
She made me say that! Anyway, I had a horse show a week ago and I had a lot of fun. I felt really good and so mom took home two first places and a reserve champion. She was very happy with me.
It's been rather HOT these days, so mom decided to let me go out at night when it's cooler. I like that! But I think I blew it because I lost a shoe down in the swamps and mom says those are very expensive shoes. She threatened to remove my shoes and let me be lame. I hope she was kidding! My heels hurt when my shoes are off.
I still get to spend the day outside though. Mom makes me a boot out of baby diapers (for humans), vetwrap (purple of course) and duct tape.... I thought it was duck tape and made out of ducks, but the package said duct. I don't know what a duct is but I am glad it's not me. I would not want to become tape. Or glue! Mom has said that they used to make glue out of horses. Wow, that's scary!
I haven't really been ridden much, which I have to admit I miss a little. Mom rode me once before the last show and that was it... I think because of my booboo she didn't want to push me. But my booboo is almost all gone now (thank the horse gods, because I was getting tired of having it played with every day)... but I think the heat is why she hasn't been riding as much.
I know mom's reasons, but my aunties haven't come to ride me or even give me treats. Maybe I did something and they no longer love me. My auntie Sarah H never comes anymore, but I guess it's hard for her since Gulliver went to horse heaven. I really miss him. I can't talk much about it because I want to neigh with sadness.
I don't know why my auntie Laura doesn't ride me. Maybe it's too hot? Humans are strange!
