I just want to say that I come here as a form of relaxation, learning and friendship with people who are like minded- we all love horses and are just trying to do our best in this quick life learning the best we can. What I know and believe now, I may not believe or do next year- thats all part of learning- you get better and and change. (hopefully)

Im the first to say that I dont know much. Im just a back yard, trail riding horse lover who's only had one professional lesson in my near 27 years on Earth. I've done a lot of stupid shit in my past that Im ashamed to admit- but because I choose to keep learning I won't keep making the same mistakes. I've also done A LOT of things right.

I've been bitched out on here a few times but honestly I couldn't tell you by whom. I keep coming back for more because I need this Board and I love everyone here and I feel like the longer I stay around the better I become.

And for the record I did send my 2 year old to a trainer for 60 days and I DID trail ride him lightly the rest of that year and in the begining of his 3 year old year I started loping him out in the cow pasture. He's going on 4 now and this coming spring I plan to really do some trail riding on him and hopefully a few open shows:) AND I have 2 AKC Shelties that I bought from a breeder- Shhh! Don't tell anyone! BUT I also have 5 cats that are all throw aways that are all fixed and 3 other large dogs that were strays that are fixed... Ive never got an animal from a shelter- I dont have to- they find me first.
