I’m in the midst of my final exams for school so things have been very busy, but I have some very exciting news that I wanted to share! We finally got the news we’d been hoping for! As of November 14, Palermo has officially been cleared to go back to work! Yay! While his injury still isn’t entirely healed, our vet feels as though he is ready to start rehabbing. This made me nervous at first, as I tend to err on the side of caution, but I’ve had to come to the realization that this is our … [Read more...]
What a difference a ride makes!
November 7, 2012 By Leave a Comment
It’s amazing how sometimes the smallest thing can totally change your perspective. With Palermo being my only horse, when he’s out of commission, I’m out of commission.

Well, this summer didn’t go exactly how I had planned. But with horses, when does it ever?

Hi Everyone! My apologies for the delay since my last post. As a student, my life is very much subject to school, and with the end of the year and final exams, not to mention rehabbing Palermo, it feels like I’ve had no time to myself lately.

The Long Road to Recovery
May 8, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Palermo and I are currently on that long and winding road back. Even though this is the second time we’ve gone through this similar scenario, I haven’t yet learned how to cope with the helplessness we feel when our horses are hurt.
