The ride today.
Omg, it was so cold today. I swear my fingers nearly froze off. Anyway, went down the the yard this morning gave the horse their breakfast, mucked out and tacked up. The we were on our way [= I hadn't done this ride before so it was a new experience, lol. Anyway, the ride would be in fields most the time, so I rode zippy in the pelham - Becase she thinks 'Grass = Flat out gallop' Even if she has a swollen leg! And my god, I'm so glad I did ride her in that! The first part of the ride she was just pootling along, but then PING! She was off! Jogging the whole way ¬¬ Then we got to this pond thingy, and we went in and she spalshed about. Then we went through again, and she went zooom, and I lost a stirrup and got a face full of branches but luckily I didn't fall off ;) I just can't believe that zippy is actually 21! She has so much life in her :L as i know ... Her leg, really dosen't seem as swollen anymore. The cortaflex could be ... could be working. I really hope it does xD

Riding
I've just come back from riding zippy. It was actually great :D She was full of bounce and took off with me:L We went round the town, which she really enjoyed and so did I. Came back washed her legs, and I noticed that the swelling had gone down. But, her owner and I don't want to do trot work incase, it swells up badly and she goes lame. So its abit .. : ... about what to do at the moment. We did have a few little trots today, and she was okay .. but yeah :) Going down the yard tomorrow, and were gunna go and have a ride round somewhere called 'The Farm' '-'. I've heard its mostly fields, so its a shame we can't go round for a canter. :( Oh well. I love zippy =D

GRRRR.
OMG. I am not in a good mood tbh.
One of my zippy videos (the only one with over 1,000 views) has been disabled! DISABLED! Its been up for months and now someone decided to claim the music! Grrrrr. I keep trying to replace the music, with crappy youtube music, but it keeps saying error! Like wtf :L

I will just have to try AGAIN tomorrow, i guess ...
Anyway on a good note! Made a new video of me and zippy lol; http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=BMBkmeLDReg

Just gotta wait and see.
Just come back from doing the horses, zippy was such a cutie today :D
She's been on her medicine for a couple of days so far.
But there doesn't seem to be any effect yet. But of course we will give it a month or so :)
Decided i might teach zippy some simple tricks, to create a stronger bond between us, xx

umm ..

Decided that I am going to make yet another video of zippy, but this time a thankyou one. To thank her for everything she's taught me etc, because to be honest I wouldn't be the rider I am today with out her - *Sniffle* I now just need to find a nice song, which seems to be proving difficult :P I'm sure I'll think of something though. I'm going to make this video very special, somehow :P Ahh still can't believe that this has happened. Had so many events planned for next year. Just my luck i guess :(
I'm a celeb's on now, better go! :D
Thankyou Sam & Charlotte for following :P
xx
P.s that picture is of zippy in her younger days! Dosen't she look lush! :P
