Plus I just got everyone fed and have to feed hay a second time…@tonibethscott where are you people watching? #
Seriously you are going to get a perfectly cleaned up image? I am watching Human Target in case anyone is wondering about that randomness. #

we have a winter weather advisory for monday and tuesday now. seriously? #

my black eye is really pretty this morning! #
RT @Fillyflair: @thesdcowgirl Hey, We have 10% off all our western belts today only! ! I am also a SD cowgirl :)/ fun #

animal rights v. animal welfare #
if i'm going i gotta get my horses saddled and my truck hooked up. #
if i stay home, i can catch my colt, and the client colt and spend some time in a muddy roundpen with them. that could be fun! #
RT @Infohorse: @thesdcowgirl Flip a coin./ don't you love his logic? #
if i stay, i can clean my barn, play w/my colt, get paid to play with another one, get a mud bath caused by both colts, and saddle my 5yo. #
and it will be dry enough tomorrow for me to go to a closer barrel race. #
the cheapest part of horse ownership comes w/purchasing the horse; the real expense sets in when you take proper care of it. #horsemanship #
going to sit with some ice on my eye before i tackle this day. #
done icing the eye. watched some #olympic #skicross while i was down. i am in love! i could do that! #
