Not ever a dull moment at the BAR --> Broken Arrow Ranch


05 July

So today was my first day alone at the ranch! ^^) LOL, well that doesn’t mean I get to sit around and do nothing!! Hehe, Aly said to me that I should just relax today, but there is just too much that she needs to get done here and I want to help as much as I can!!

Wake up with Gemma in her usual spot on my pillow, hehe, she’s adopted me! :P I decided that I don’t want to add sunburn to my sunburn so I put on my long checked shirt so I wouldn’t be more sore! I got pretty burnt yesterday morning when riding G, so made sure I didn’t get burned today!

So I fed the horses and then moved G to the grass field so he can eat the nice grass, tomorrow I’ll put Red there so he can chow too! J I had to move one of the trofts to the bottom field, omw its faAar! Well, this experience was scary and funny at the same time. So I moved the  troft from where it was and there goes a freaking Rattle Snake!!! Holy crap I shat myself, so he held me hostage for about 20 minutes because he was infront of the stable gate and I had no weapons... So eventually I am set free and it crawls under some logs, we later took a shovel and cut it in half an the front end of the body still tried to attack, it was so freaky, so we got the head too. So then I start cleaning the thing and I’m scrubbing away and a HUGE Black Widow spider starts casually crawling up my arm!!! Like holy crap!! Today was obviously not my day!

So I sorted the troft and water for G in the bottom camp, but it was sooo difficult hauling that thing there and then opening valves etc. I’m just glad its done! I raked a section of the field today, omw that was tiring!! Haha. Then I decided that I would try catch mouse. That little pony is so darn clever you cant fool her... So that never happened.

Then I decided to tack up Red. Worked him inside for a while and then took him into the mares camp, he was sooo good! He surprised me so much because it was the first time he had been with mares since he was gelded... He is really such a nice horse and I really hope Aly keeps letting me work him! We went for ages!! I discovered that he is afraid of water , and birds, and trees and different colours of grass... LOL, so we will have to work on that. He is a lot more relaxed now though!

The rest of the day I just did the small ranch stuff that needed to get done! So all in all a good day as usual. Chatting to my Boyfriend always puts a smile on my face. He will go out of his way to make sure he can chat to me it is so sweet! Lol and its his birthday in a couple of days, so he’s getting old. Tehee I love teasing him! I wish my mom would get a mic so I could chat to her! I miss her and Tay a lot!! OMW, even though we used to fight a lot, I miss their voices! Anyway, I’m defiantly turning into a ranch girl!
