Weather, Hot! 78F!
Bugs, TERRIBLE! O_O
So, today since Molly and Jessie grazed for most part of the day, I thought it would be nice to play with Glory again, and see how things go. So I got everthing ready, and went to halter her, and the halter that I had didn't fit. It was just too small. So I got the one that I tried to knot together myself, and used that instead. So then after I caught her, I groomed her, tacked her up with the BP, and played with her. She was fine with all the games, so then I tried backing her by the tail to make sure it wasn't a too good to be true thing that happened yesterday. So I tugged, and she was trying to figure out what I wanted, so I wriggled the rope a little bit, and she backed up! :-D It wasn't too good, but it was really neat! :-D So then after getting her really nice and listening to me, I got on from the stump, and worked on getting her lighter to go and whoa, and turning, more energetic walk, backing, etc. She was really good today! To get her to go was more of a lifting my energy up, and sqeezing a bit! :-D We have a bit more trouble stopping though, but she was really good! :-D So when we were finished, I got off, untacked, let her loose, and gave her a treat, and when I was walking back to the house, I heard a whinny from her to me! :-D I AM PART OF HER HERD! :-D She didn't want me leaving her! So I met her up on top of the pond dike, and gave her some grass, and she could see Molly and Jessie from there as well. Then I went in, and throughout the day I'd go out and give the horses some apples that A. and I gathered yesterday, and then I went back down to the barn later on, Molly and Jessie still out grazing, and I got the hula hoops out, and played with Glory. She finds those things more amusing than Molly and Jessie, so I'd lay one of her neck, and I'd back up, and she'd walk through, or she'd chew on them instead, or if they were on the ground, just having fun. :-D So then after I put those back I decided that she needed a good mane job, so I brushed her tail haltered, and tied her, then brushed her mane, and braided it. During the mane braiding she didn't want to stay still, and A. put Molly and Jessie back in, so Glory wanted to see them too, but I had her tied, so I got it all done, and then I played a little more with her, some circling, squeezes, She kept on shaking her head a lot because she isn't used to having not much mane to flop around. But she sure looked cute! :-D I didn't get pictures though. Then I played around with the yo-yo game, and she kept on backing up into the jolly ball, and she sqeezed all the air out of it, then kicked it back, and she'd step on it again. :-D Then it rolled in front of her, and she kind of bit it, and it went off a little, so I kicked it back at her, and it bumped her legs, but she didn't try to do anything else with it, so I left it at that, took the halter off, then went to see Jessie. She thought I was going to catch her, so I just played the friendly game with the halter, rubbing her with it in her favorite spots, then left, and got the brush, and brushed her tail and mane. She bent her tail sideways when I brushed her tail, so I took it as it was uncomfortable, so I brushed her mane, and Glory bugging me a lot to be brushed again, then after trying Jessie's tail again which was better, I ran over to Molly to see what she'd do, and she laid back her ears at me, then when I raised the brush, she became interested, and wanted me to brush her. So I brought her mane to one side, and brushed it out good, and brushed her tail a little bit, but Glory being Glory still kept bothering me to be brushed some more. Then after that I did chores, said goodnight, then went in.
Overall it was a Great day! :-D
