Another Update...

Hey everyone! So anyways I went to an ankle/foot specialist today, turns out my dr was wrong and I actually have a bone contusion not a fracture and its the ligaments that are torn. Anyways the Dr. said basicly I have sprained my ankle baddly enough and enough times that its just not going to get better by itself anymore. I rolled my ankle and fractured it in 5th grade, rolled it and fractured it again in 6th grade, and I have rolled it many times sense then... I roll it badly every couple months and minor ones about once a month. Anyways the ligaments heal each time, but they never heal back to what they were. My ligaments are so stretched out they don't even do anything anymore in the end my ankle will never get better on its own again. So after some dicussion I will end up having surgery right after prom, but in the meantime I can just wear my brace because I literally can't make it any worse by walking on it as long as I don't roll it again and if I do roll it again theres a good chance I would break or fracture something. Anyways the recovery for the surgery is about 3 months so I will be out for awhile. Anyways thats it for now blog you guys later!

Update

Hey guys, so anyways I just wanted to let you know that there will probably not be too many horse related posts. As some of you may know, I sprained my ankle about 5 weeks ago, I went back to the doctor about 3 weeks ago, and the Dr. was concerned with how much pain and swelling was still going on so he ordered a MRI, I had the MRI last Monday, (not yesterday but last week) and I went in today to get the results, anyways its now apparent why my ankle has still been hurting and swollen, I fractured it and tore my ligaments. I will have to visit a specialist and there is a posibility that I may have to have surgery done. Anyways I figured I would give you guys a heads up as I won't be doing any riding for awhile, I might still do some small videos and simple things but not riding unless its videos of roni, alex, or nick riding. Anyways I hope you all had or are having a good spring break! Remember to check out my chicken blog stormychickens.blogspot.com

Life...

Life is a funny thing isn't it? We are always so busy, never seeming to slow down. I used to use this blog to slow down, but I really just havn't been able to do that these past 5-6 months really..... After I got my job I have had quite a bit of time taken up. I am also on a completly loaded school schedual, I am taking 7 classes every day, (PE/Studyhall every other day doesn't count I think....) plus 2 full college courses online. I honestly have not had time to mess with the horses lately either. I go out there and feed them, the other day I went out and gave them some apples and some hand grooming, but other than that I have ridden once sense the beginning of the year and only about 3-4 times in the past 6 months.... I would love to get out in this lovely weather that we are having right now. I would have liked to a couple weeks ago, but I was having some really bad trouble with my back, even taking medicine that can knock my mom out didn't help much. But finally after having to go the chiropractor every other day for about a week and a half it has been starting to feel better, I hope tomorrow will be the last one.... and then a little over 2 weeks ago I sprained my ankle pretty good. It wasn't to bad the first day, just swollen and a little bruised. The second day it started to get worse both in appearence and feeling, so I ended up going to the doctor. They did X-rays and said not broke thankfully, but then a week later at my follow up, the doctor was concerned with how none of the swelling was going away and that it wasn't feeling much better, so now 3 weeks later I will be going in for an MRI which will hopefully figure out what is wrong and why it doesn't seem to be healing very well. Today my $400 worth of prom orders didn't come in because the teacher misplaced the sheet, but oh well I guess we will get it figured out eventually. The digatizer in my phone stopped working.... I could answer calls because I knew where to touch the screen to answer the call, but couldn't actually see anything other than a blank screen. Life seems to just want to wear me out quite a bit lately, thankfully today is the first day of spring break. I for sure plan on going to hopefully see deadpool with some friends sometime later next week if my friend is feeling up to it after getting her Wisdom teeth taken out. I also plan on working on redoing part of our old farrowing building, and turning it into a chicken coop. (Nick burnt down our last one, but this one is made of metal, so maybe just maybe he won't burn that down too). I have some big plans for the comming months and summer. The month of April is chock full of events, FFA state convention, solo and ensamble, the State Horse Fair, the elementary carnival, the dance marathon, track grilling will be starting up, FFA banquet, and much much more.

I don't have much else to right about other than adding a side note that we gave lucky away to a friend of ours who has an older mare, and he wanted a companion animal for her. Lucky is pretty loyal and protective so I'm sure hes having fun, especially without Jet to pick on him.

Here are some random pictures related to some of the things I talked about in the post...

This is what it looked like in a little less than 24 hours... it got a little darker than this though and eventually went further up my leg...

This is what happend to our dump truck which also has our plow on it... the shape in the drift on the right is a normal truck

In this picture you can see the top of the truck sticking out over the snow... the fun part was spending about 4 and a half hours digging the monster out with a shovel and then having to pull it unstuck because our yard is an ice rink...

This is a picture of our yard BEFORE the chicken coop and corn crib were accidentally burned down...

In this video the chicken coop has already collapsed but the corn crib is still blazing...

This was the aftermath of the fire, no animals or people were injured thankfully. 

Lucky the donkey we will miss you, I hope your having fun with your new friend ya goofball!

I'm Back!

Hey everyone! Its been so long sense I have posted.... I can hardly find the time anymore.... I will be honest we have done very little at with the horses this winter, the last time I rode Chuck was right after new years, and before that it was back in late november or early december I think.... so we haven't done much....
So I am also sad to inform you that our dear Chance has passed away, he was a very old horse, even if he didn't act like it sometimes. He was up and eating that morning when we all left, but by the time we got home he was gone. He is buried down at my grandpas farm.

Anyways on the brighter side, I think we will finally be able to start riding more here once the weather finally warms up....

Yesterday we went shopping for my prom dress.... and Roni ended up picking out a pretty good one for me :)   Its blue with sparkles up on top that fade as you go down with ribbing in the top, its kinda neat because the owner of the shop was the one who designed it, and the store won't sell the same dress to people at the same school, and because the shop owner was the one who made it, it isn't sold in other places, so I don't have to worry about someone else having the same exact dress as me....
If you guys want a pic just let me know in the comments


Anyways here are some videos to keep you guys busy... I have made a few just because so here you go!

Happy New Year

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted in so long... I have been crazy busy... we had finals the week before we got out and were on Christmas break.... I work all but 4 days of our break.... Wednesday was one of the days I had off and while I was off Roni and I went in to donate blood... Vironica was a first time blood donor and she had a wonderful experience and said she would be donating again for sure.... our area is in desperate need of volunteers to donate... because of the weather recently they have a less than 1 day supply of blood.... so if you can be sure to donate wherever you live!!!

I hope everyone's Christmas went well and same with New Years... I didn't get much for Christmas because one of my gifts was kinda expensive and that was 3 new tires for my truck... I also got 2 games... bean boozled and cards against humanity... I got 2 pairs of gloves one for hunting and one for everyday use with touch screen fingers... I also got the movie "The Scorch Trials"... a beanbag phone stand... my sisters old TV haha... a gift card to western edge to by myself some new boots but I'll have to put some of my own money into that... a steering wheel cover and matching seat belt covers and some clothing... anyways it was fun to spend the holidays and see everyone..... Sorry there's not much to update on the horses we haven't done anything at all recently other than feed them lol we have been so busy so maybe here in the next few weeks I can give you a "horsie" update....
