OK so I've been trying very hard to keep this blog strictly about the happy things in my life, since for the most part I know I am an extremely lucky girl but today its just beyond that. I'm so discouraged and ready to blow a gasket. It started off like every other single day of the week, up breakfast then headed to the barn. My showmanship practice with spring went horrible. I couldn't do anything right. The horse was doing great but it was me the problem, which is way harder to fix then the horse. Then Ariel was a pain in the butt to get her feet trimmed. She managed to throw herself on the ground then get her halter off which was very frustrating. Finally by the end she stood still and didn't move. Then I asked Chuck about delights feet, if it was really the thrush that was the problem..... turns out no she's more then likely navicular which isn't cure-able, which means unless I want to spend a large sum of money getting nerve endings cut I can only hope that the new shoes and pads along with bute will make it so the kids can ride her and maybe if I'm lucky I'll be able to do a little trail riding, but I won't ride her limping the way she has been that's for sure. So there goes every plan I had for her for the summer, she was suppose to go to the local shows so Kaleb could do lead-line and then eventually Kenzie would use her too. I'm so discouraged about this isn't not even funny. Not to mention the fact that I'm not on the stupid low iodine diet for my cancer scan on the 4th of may.
But I did have some good points today, I of course am feeling pretty low so I was crying earlier and so I explained to Kaleb that I was sorry for being weepy that I was just sad because delight was "sick" and that made mommy sad and he goes without missing a beat, " oh mommy don't worry, I'll go to the barn with you tomorrow and make everything better!" He has such a heart of gold that boy. He can really turn a crappy moment into one that you can't help but smile :)
Poor Kenzie is either teething or coming down with an ear an infection. She has a little fever again and is pretty grumpy. But still manages to get into trouble, i'm going to have to rig a gate up on the bathroom door again because otherwise she's in there playing with the toilet and just getting into trouble! What a girl!
Anyways I think I've vented enough for one day, I'll make sure my next post is happier :)
Till Next Time!!
