Just a girl catering to her horse’s every whim

My pretty lady
Just got the scores back from my second online show with Dakota and all the judge did was rip her to shreds. The only semi positive comment was “Straight” for one of our trots down the centerline 🤩

My comment might’ve gotten deleted but this screenshot lives on! I’ve made three comments like this on different posts (all anti ICE posters) and either the comment and/or post have been “mysteriously” deleted 🤔

Person on FB: my horse is so lame and the vet says put her down but I wanted to ask for advice *posts gnarly X-rays and hoof pics*

Terrible “farrier” group: omg no your horse can be saved don’t listen to the person who’s only in it for the money

And this is why horses needlessly suffer every day.

Poor Skeebie has to go to the vet on Wednesday. She’s being sedated so she can get her nails trimmed, plus potentially getting her foot x-rayed bc she randomly started limping last night 💔

My fever and shakes better go away tonight bc I only have 11 hours of PTO since I work part time and I refuse to use 8 of them in one go

There’s a popular equine photographer/videographer in my area and every time I see someone post about her I’m reminded of when she cussed me out in my DMs for posting my (negative) thoughts about CK

I was too sick to go to the barn today (that’s saying a lot for me) so not one, but two friends sent me pics of Dakota and Lily 😭

There’s a good chance Dakota and I could qualify for the WDAA World Show next year but it’s in Oklahoma and we live in Ohio 💔 A girl can dream though

ICE is running rampant in my city now and I hate it. They’re targeting everyone non-white and I feel like I can’t go out unless I’m with my mom (she’s white and I’m biracial). I hope this is over soon.

I’m officially finished with my degree and it’s wild to think about. I’m not graduating until May (I’m taking some fun electives next semester so I don’t have to start paying student loans) but I’m technically done

Every time I see someone use Magic Cushion it reminds me of when I used it for Dakota in 2022 and it seeped out of her vet wrap/duct tape/bell boot shield and gave her open wounds on her armpits/chest so bad my non horsey dad even noticed and asked if she was okay. I’m still traumatized to this day

Miss ma’am and I enjoyed our first snowy ride of the season on Monday 😌
December 17, 2025 at 6:44 PM
I’m posting these on every social media platform I have so everyone can see how cute my children were in the snow yesterday

Every time someone says “my horse just hates being turned out” an angel loses its wings

My brother: “Yeah the roads on the way to the barn are fine”
Me: *has slid sideways through two intersections*

And this is why we don’t trust men 🤦‍♀️

The girls’ Christmas pics are here!!

Dakota saw me pull into the barn and this is how she was waiting for me at the gate 😭🥹

Just realized at the beginning of the year I have to renew my APHA, WDAA, and USEF memberships. And maybe my PtHA and sign up for local dressage organizations 🤠

This entire post made me depressed

My BO posted this video and it makes me so happy to see

(Lily is in the royal blue blanket and Dakota is in the bright teal one)

One of my barn mates consistently schedules the farrier for dates I can’t be there. She insists on being the one to schedule even though she has one horse and I have two. Dakota needs Dorm Gel to balance well but barn mate refuses to give it to her. So now either Dakota doesn’t get her meds… cont.

My brother has decided he wants to take Dakota to Youth Show for the Men’s WP since that class is always small. So now I have 5 months to somehow get her ready to not only show, but show with someone that isn’t me 🤠

🐎 People who think the solution is just "sit up and put your heels down" have never met inertia before

Like, I will sit up when my horse isn't flying backwards at 15 mph 3 seconds after going forward at 25 mph

One of my nicknames for Sweetie is “baby puppy” and my dad asked if she’s actually considered a puppy still… y’all she’s 5 and weighs 100 lbs 💀
