Spring has sprung!

70 degrees, grass coming in, and the first time I've seen my horse in a couple of days. One of the boys either bit him or pulled a kick, and he was skinned above his left eye. Poor old guy! It wasn't hot, wasn"t swollen, so I just put some tea tree oil ointment on it. I'll go back in the morning to check him again.

I haven't seen much of him because of my master's capstone paper (from here forward, it will be referred to as 'that stupid paper') which is due on April 1st. I reallly want to know who at Penn decided on April Fool's Day as a damned deadline anyway??!!

Spring is trying to spring!!

Worked with Dawn today to trim hooves and she worked on trimming up his frogs and bars. They seems to grow like crazy in all of this snow! Anyway, up to my eyes with crunch time on my thesis, so I didn't ride today. Hopefully next weekend!
