I was a former pony jock, daughter of a trainer. My mother brought in every nasty, rotten, flesh-eating demon, under 14.2 hands in the country. It was my job to fix them.....


or get killed! :o

Fast forward thirty-some years... I buy a super fancy paint mare from the meat dealer who happens to slide in just under 14.2 - she is a project and in the back of my mind, I am thinking possible pony for daughter. Paint mare has been abused at some point, and has a few quirks which won't allow me to market her as a kid's mount. She is fancy and sweet, and the behavioral issues are man made. I won't send her back to wherw she came from and decide to breed her....

I choose a small Welsh for a hubby - WHAT WAS I THINKING??? OK, was thinking pony for daughter again.;) Fast forward four years (almost one year in-utero), and my daughter skipped the pony years, is too big for a medium, and has a lovely HORSE of her own.

I get to ride the pony today at it's first show... Did I mention I hate ponies?:lol::lol::lol: This one is actually quite acceptible. We did the 2' Schooling Hunters at a schooling show - 10+ entries - and she went in the ring like a seasoned veteran!!! She swept the division with my big ol' butt up, and was perfect!

I have YouTube video, but it isn't ready yet, here are some funny pictures of me - she looks fab.;)

:lol: :lol: :lol: I apologize for being built like a muppet :nyah: . My stirrups were jacked and made my back hurt! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I was showing a medium when I was 15 and started doing the Juniors when I was 12. :psycho: :psycho: :psycho: Always fun when the juniors or the big eqs went at the same time as the ponies - I remember Detriot being a circus one year with me being in 3 rings at once.

I have gone through different "stages" during adulthood, but lost 40 lbs when I quit drinking six years ago, and it aint coming back.;)

Miss thang (pony) is registered 1/2 Welsh, out of my Paint mare, by Stonecroft Spring Cloud, and currently stands 13.1 plus a little/maybe. She will stay top of the line Medium.
