Another Heartbreak...

Before getting out to the barn yesterday I returned the saddle... The more I looked at it it looked like it had a twisted tree... (boo) Which made me really sad/agitated/depressed because I would've bought that saddle if it didn't...

It was quite windy at The Ranch yesterday, windy and cold! I wanted to take Ava to the outdoor arena so we could have our privacy but instead I took her inside and worked with her in there. I worked on all the games with her and couldn't believe how well she behaved while lunging. I did not move from my spot and asked her to trot, she trotted until I brought her in. Very happy, even more so because the barn and wind was making her nervous. That was all I did with her, I didn't want her to get sweaty with all that wind outside!

In other news, I have another depressing thing to tell you all... I have to move barns (I only found out last night!)... I guess the lease is about to run out and my BO will not be renewing it (I feel bad for him because I know that he loves that place), so in turn all the boarders have to leave, like within two months at the most, more like that end of the month... Although I may complain a lot about being down there that has literally been my favorite place I've ever boarded, Ava would never be at the stage she is at if we didn't move down there. So, I am heartbroken (again...) and now I have to find a place pretty quickly. Just thought I'd update you all and thank you for all the wonderful comments you have sent me, they always lift my spirits.
