Went to pick up some mended horserugs this morning, then had my weekly massage with Mer and did some necessary shopping. Got my Toyota back from mechanics, it turned out all had to be replaced underneath, I have no idea what exactly it was, the only thing that was clear to me was breaks. Breaks are important but apparently so was the other 'stuff' because the bill was very IMPORTANT..   People who knows me know I am not a friend of numbers, so I calculate the bill = 10 good winter rugs, 4 months livery for 1 horse, 5 nice handmade bridles and 1 fee for entering 1 horse for the Montenmedio, Sunshinetour.. Yes it is expensive and that is only fee for box, add the daily use for horse and your own hotel for 3 weeks. I (or rather Javier) arrived to the conclusion I NEED A SPONSOR - anyone? Then add the very inconvenient (well for me it is) fact that you have to stay there 3 entire weeks, which takes some serious planning. So instead of being nervous to the point of feeling ill, I will do longweekend holiday trip to the sun and study my competitors and hopefully get inspired instead and then NEXT year, I WILL be there with a brand new freestyle and my shining horses. 
Erin's first pirotest failed. But, nothing bad that doesn't bring something good. Now she was able to choose a horse, with the help of her friend Val, that she at first did not think could be hers! You see how everything has a reason and always works out for your best?
He has passed the piro and tomorrow Javier will go with vet and have the vetcheck done. He is a pure carthusian, beautiful is he not?

gorgeous horse with a super temperament. Very happy and fingers and toes all crossed for the vetcheck. That first pic was probably taken when I was about to cry, knowing how much I loved this horse but he was not meant for me.

Tack Kryddan, sedan du såg videon så har han lärt sig piaff och passage med, kunde blivit en fin avelshingst men nu ska han kastreras och bli ridhäst!

Kommer inte ihåg att jag har sett någon video på denna? Så det var inte så jag menade, trodde bara inte att jag hade sett den på film. Trist att den skall skäras, men så är det ibland.

Jo du såg denna men du fastnade bara för den bruna. Jo visst är det synd, sådana här kvalitéer växer ju inte på träd, nu gör den piaff och passage och har dessutom tävlat nationell dressyr alla raser och vunnit. Duktig, fin och stammad, go Erin!
