Free Republic has a lot of horse people that have found each other on other threads . And since we all like to talk horses, how about a thread where it is not off-topic, but is THE topic?
A few of us thought it would be interesting and informative to have a chat thread where we can share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the last thread we had a great time and were a great help to each other working through lessons and training, horse lamenesses and illnesses, questions and challenges and always just our stories we like to tell.
I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts look for it there and wake the thread up!
I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in . There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news . Legislation that might affect horse owners.
So... like the last thread, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.
OH, OH:)
Becky
Foiled :~D
Yeah, and you beat me to it:)
Becky
Good honest catch on your part:)
Becky
Indeed.
I went out and ran the mower over the yard. The casual observer may think I am nuts since the grass ain't growing, but I was picking up leaves :~D
Makes sense. I use to go over the yard twice once to cut, once to blow the grass away where it is really thick and gets clumpy.
Becky
I have 7 acres to cut and am cultivating a wild flower meadow! LOL
I went out to the stables. I have north side stalls but they dropped canvas and no wind blowing. Couldn't stay though because I couldn't find my purse. I was freaking out. I had about 800 dollars in it and thought I might have laid it on top of the car but it was in the house. Whew!
Well, I'd be a little worried too!
that would have had me running round in circles.........glad you found it!
My poor horse. It was like , ok here you are. Got to go:') How's momma doing? Any changes? Will you stay with her after dark?
It's no good, I'm feeling wicked, so I've got to ask the question to everyone.........
Are you ready for Christmas?
no changes, shes been pacing a bit, bag is fit to burst.
I shall go out lots to check on her.
I'm ready.... we're easy because we don't have kids, and we're going up to my dad's for Christmas so our place doesn't have to be all decorated and ship-shape. Just waiting to go!
You aren't giving up on pics are ya?
:) Surely you jest
no, not giving up on the pics, just fed up. They wont upload which is crazy. I havent had problems like this b4.
Maybe a sleep will work wonders.
What kind of errors are you getting?
LOL that I do! I'm not ready........I have my parents in law now living with us and they both need 24/7 care and i cant leave unless someone capable is here to take over. (one is chair bound and the other is totally confused and bed bound and blind). They are great people though.
I did a lot of shopping on the internet, because the children might find it hard to believe if santa (Father Christmas) leaves just money under the tree!
I slept out in the barn with a pig once, waiting for the little ones:')
i have never had problems downloading to yahoo or hp, but on the two sites you mentioned, i upload and i just get a failed notice, even though a small pic of mine is showing. I dont understand it. I am trying to send pics from a cdr. I manage to e-mail them all the time ok!
