Day 41

I think that Brie may be going through some hormonal changes right now. For the past three weeks, although I have failed to mention it, she has been giving me attitude when I want to take her out of the stall. She may just not want to work, but she doesn't get out all week because of the ice, so you could assume that she'd be happy to leave, right?
Well, I'm trying to be patient with her, yet again. Just getting her to walk today with 3 other horses in the arena was a challenge and she worked herself up. I guess I never have a dull moment with her. She ended on a good note though, finally walking, so I walked a couple rounds bareback, which hopefully she enjoyed.

Still no progress with Nina, as we've just found out that Ray's mom died this week. He's been in Puerto Rico with her for close to a month now, and won't be back until the middle of next week. Please keep him in your thoughts.

I rode Harry again today. He reminds me more and more of Andre's horse, Querida, and maybe a little bit of Brie too. He's young though, so I should give him a chance on the Brie aspect of it. He may have a lot of potential on the Querida side of it, because Querida is a Fino horse. Right now, since Harry's young, we might just show him in Pleasure classes if he's really not where he needs to be, otherwise we'd show him in Performance. If it turns out that we've struck gold again, we might have a Fino horse, along with Nina being a possible Fino horse!
Now why do I speak like I own Harry?
Well.
I do. =] Not officially though. We still have to seal the deal tomorrow and, obviously, pay for him. I should've probably waited to tell you guys in case it fell through, but I'm so excited! While I release a small groan at having to calm and desensitize another young horse, I can't say that I'm not looking forward to the challenge. It will all pay off in the end.
