Well, teh poking and teh prodding happened today. I has no good feelings abut tihs. Well okays, it wasn't so bad. Has fleckshuns testing too. I has clean fleckshuns except for some minor stuff many horses have.
But my back has 'nother story. Has such tightness taht teh vet had hard time even feeling teh spine, nevermind adjusting, which I didn't really like anyways. Recommends massage to loooooosen me up between adjustments.
So now my partner has to find me one of tehse human mares who knows how to do tihs. If yu know of anyone, let me knowes please.
Tahnks!

Buzzzzzz, I has even better looks now!
Yesterday started totally normals. Went outside, ate with my mares, toyed wiht Franks on teh other side of teh fence. Partner came, brings me afternoon snacks to eat while normal groomings.
When I finish my snack, My partner tells me we are gonna do sometihng different. Like wahts, I say? Well since yu ask, she says....here! She shows me a small stick and its going like BUZZZZZZZZZZ. I go, OMG is a bug stuck in tehere? Beeeeeees! NOOOOO!
She laughs and says, chill out. She walks away and then turns it back on. Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. She's not getting stung. Waht teh hell? She shuts it off. She has teh power! She brings it closer, turns it on again. Buzzzzzz. OK, so teh bees are trapped, I get it.
Turns it off and touches me wiht teh stick. Okays. Turns it on. touches again....omg I love teh massage on my mouth! BUZZ BUZZ don't stop! Ooooooooooooooo.
So we played wiht this for awhiles- turns out i gots a trim on my muzzle and under my jaw and stuff. My partner says it'll be easier now to fasten up teh bridle. Hmm okays. I'm just happy I has even better looks for teh mares.

Has Fat!
It has been a long winter of lots of inside times and under blankets to keeps warm. Yesterday with teh help of my human mare friend Juliane, I has pictures taken of me outside.
Here is me. Notice how much handsome I has, which is why I basically has to wear a sheet- to hide it from teh mares in teh pasture. Though my partner says I need to be vacuumed cuz I has dust magnet properties. I dun't knowe waht taht is really so I has no worry.
Hey good lookin'....

Head Banger
OMG today I has teh worst headache. I can't even stand it.
We has boredom today, so we decided to do sometihng outside of teh arena. My partner realizes I hasn't really ever seen teh ohter side of teh barn, or explored teh front with all teh new gravels. So we goes tehre.
I got to walks on gravels up and downs, sniff lots of stuff, go to teh trailer, back over teh streams of waters, jump over tehm too *grins* Tihs all has fun.
Until we goes into teh ohter side of teh barn. Concern #1: washrack. Its ok, just white and eery looking. Nohting good can come of standing in tehere, i just feel it. But I did it anyway and we played wiht teh hose but no waterz cuz its cold! My partner said all I has to do is hold teh mats down on teh floor wiht my hooves ohterwise tehy will float away. Easy enough.
Concern #2: Whiles I has a nap in tehre, I start hearing bang, BaNg, BANG BANG BANG! I looks up and teh biggest horse I has ever seen is in a stall smashing his hoof into teh wall cuz he wants us to see him. Ohh wahtevers, hi big horse. BANG BANG BANG BANG! I looks at my partner and says "I has to leave cuz I can't take anymore banging." BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG She agrees and we leaves. But we both has headeaches now tahnks to teh big horse.
We goes back and each has snacks and tehn I go back to teh pasture to nurse my hurting head and Faith goes to get ridden, hahahaha.

Big Circle, Little Circle
Ohhh yesterdays was interesting. First of all, a new mare came to live with mees. I saw her, I tihnk she's beaoootiful.
Teh problem was taht i has work to do and teh new mare was in teh arena. Even though she has good looks, she takes up space and I need teh arena to myself. Oh okays my partner says, its nice to share. Fine. But i has talls and fats, and i need space!
So we played a new game cuz we needed a break from teh poles, which keep getting taller, by teh way- and tehy must be breeding cuz each time we play tehre are more poles to work wiht. Teh new game is called big circle, little circle. at first I tihnk tihs game has stupidness, but tehn I see how it works. We start at a walk, my partner at my shoulder on teh big circle. she asks me to bend my head around a little bit, then take a step sideways wiht my front hooves. We do tihs a bunch of times. tehn teh small circle happens. but tihs time my partner stays in teh center and asks for soft head and points at my shoulders, I gives. tehn after a lap teh circle gets bigger and i suddenly has teh urge to streeeetch down and make springy steps. when i get stiffs and stop stretchings, we make teh circle smaller again and start over. Tehn we go teh other direction, tehn we progress to teh trots.
Tihs is very hard werk and only athletic equinez shuld try it. but I can doe it cuz I is just taht type. My new mare was impressed.

Hot to Trot!
I'm just sayin'....I has teh looks. My partner has been pushing my fat bum over trotting poles to make me lifts my hooves up cuz she says I may just be lazy or sumtehing. I dunno, don't feel lazy but maby i has it?
Todays when she was putting teh pole puzzles together she brought me into teh arena so i could have a good dry roll in teh dirt. after teh roll i followed her arounds and soon after we gots down to it. HOLY CRAP teh sides of teh poles are lifted off teh ground...and tehere is too manee to jump. te first pole teh left side is up, teh second pole teh right side...and tehn teh left and finalee teh right (we has only 4 poles- we has needs for more)
After all tihs crazy work we stayed inside to cool down cuz it was rainin' hard and i didn't want to get wet. I has a good walk and i feel my partners eyes on me. and tehn i hear teh words "Ernies, yu is a hottie." Who mee? I never knew ;)

Pole Dancing
Winter is teh worst cuz we're stuck inside wiht teh fake suns. Teh ground is OK, though. Just small. I has boredom- so does my partner. On teh never-ending quest to build top of teh line muscles, we keep werking. But shakes it up a bit- lets do different stuffs, okays?
So one night we has long lining day. It was so much funs- long lines, zipping around teh arena one way tehn teh other way walks and trots, weeeee! Teh only tihng missing was teh cart- too small for one- but I culd so pull it.
Teh next afternoon was back to teh longe- but tihs time we use poles on teh ground- 4 of tehm, like a compass. All I has to do is step over tehm. Sounds easy, ehs? NOT! i has to keep moving at teh same pace, which means I has to stretch my legs to make it over teh poles. I has to bend my hocks, wich sux, to be honest. And If i dont look where I has to go, I trip and look stupid. Its really hard werk! My partner let me use teh body wrap which helped a lot wiht knowing where all my bits and parts were.
Tehn last night we did teh same tihng, but we has 2 big circles- warms up without poles, tehn the one center pole in teh middle, tehn we drift from one end to teh other- so sumetimes I has poles to go over, ohter times not. Tehn after taht we moved all teh poles down one of teh long sides. Tehn my partner drove me over teh set up- just walking for nows. She says soon we will raise teh poles a little but not for jumping. Darn it. I has good jumps.
So one might ask mee, "Ernies, how yu get so much energies to do all tihs stuff?" I tell yu. For teh last few days I has been getting special powers from tihs magic stuff in a tube called PowerPac. My partner says today is teh last day of getting teh power, but now I has it permanently in my bodee until next year. Tu much powers and yu can overdose and get sick- no good.
One last tihng before I goes. Tank Yu to Mister Baker for fixing my driving lines. Teh snap broke many months ago and so we has to use 2 different kinds of ropes- wich was noe goods. Now we can go back to driving teh right way! And tahnk yu to Valerie and Blanket Express for fixing my coats so nice. I hope teh mares don't rip tehm again, trying to get to mee ;)

Winter Sux!
First of alls, let me say I has nohting to do wiht teh horses taking down teh fence. It was all Franks and teh others.
Second of alls, let me say: I hate winters. Today I has a special treat cuz my favurite Pam teh Trimmer came and did my hooves. I has good manners, she luvs me. All teh human mares do- teh horse ones too!
My partner luvs me today too- I has such better moves tehse days- today I was warming up and i streeeeetched all teh way down for all teh laps on teh longe- and took big steps too- no tiny ones like i used to. I impressed all who watched.
But dun't make me goe back in teh rain!!! Ewwwww. Is taht how yu treat a fine horse like mee? Guess so, cuz yu made me go back out teher.

Happy Birthsdayz!
To equines teh world over- happy birthday! And to teh human partners, has a happy new year (dunt ask ur horses if tehy has resolutions- cuz we don't- its only something yu do as humans)!Uf course we each has individule days to celebrate, but tihs is teh official day- so I hopes you all got special prezents. I gots a carrot and had to share with Faith. Yum yum yum!Teh wind has been amazing today- it keeps opening a gate down by teh pasture- and BANG scares teh mares every time. And so, todays I do not leave teh pasture to do work- it has importance to stay and protect teh herd. On days like tehse it is best to stick together- or at least in pairs. In tihs pictshure you can see Faiths has a hiding spot behind my bum teh gate is just out of view down teh road. Dun't worry, I has talls and strongs, so I can protect my marez.
