Wranglin' Wednesdays - Good Tidings To Y'all!

  Hey everyone! Merry Christmas, even if it is a day late! I'm really busy with last minute moving details, but I wanted to write a blog post anyway to see how everyone was doing. What did y'all get for Christmas? I got a few odds and ends, but the big thing I wanted was my father's custom-made Buffalo Saddlery saddle, which he gave to me! Now I just need to fork out the money to get a new saddle pad (American flag style, baby!), and find someone who can make me a matching breast ...

Wranglin' Wednesdays - Bug Off

  Hello everyone! I hope y'all are havin' a nice week, and if not, well, I hope it gets better! We're going to continue on our medical discourse today, because I'm off on a tangent now, and there's nothing worse than Katie off on a tangent. What now, you ask? Equine infectious anemia. A little easier to pronounce than last week's disease, but we'll settle for EIA, because it's kind of difficult to type. Equine infectious anemia can also be called swamp fever, or, the most ...

Wranglin' Wednesdays - Not Awesome, Possum

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="300"] The culprit.[/caption]   Whoa, readers! These last few days have been a whirlwind of packing, room dust, and more packing. Moving is hard! Enough complaining, though, because this week's subject is pretty important, at least to me. EPM. Kind of run-of-the-mill, yeah? Gimme' a chance to explain how it's not. Horses getting sick can be scary, because you may not know what's going on at first, or may not know what exactly is wrong. ...

Wranglin' Wednesdays - Go Against The Grain!

  How's it going, audience? Good? Good. Me, I'm sitting here on my living room couch, procrastinating on packing my room up until the last minute, as usual. As I sat, I thought of something: hey, wouldn't my blog readers like to read about how to catch a difficult horse in the pasture? I don't know, do you? Too late! Right about now, y'all are probably going "Katie, you don't know anything about horses, do you? All you need is some grain!", but everybody knows I like to do ...

Pony Club and Life Lessons

Hello! This week marks the start of finals for me, so kind thoughts and prayers would be much appreciated! I considered writing more about managing time and finding ways to ride, but I think this week's focus will be on something from my past, for some of you may have children who are involved in this organization, or may have been part of it yourself. As you can see from my title, I am speaking of Pony Club. Now, my parents (read: my mother) encouraged my brother and me to be ...
