Budget Equestrian
DIY projects for barn, tack room and even your home
Unless you are incredibly wealthy, you get it that money is tight these days. Even for those who were relatively comfortable, the cost of everything has gone up. Which for me means finding ways to entertain myself that I can do for free. So how can you entertain yourself for free you might be wondering? …
While I had intended on going to every show in this series, Covid happened in our home, so I was limited on how many shows I could get too. Thanks Covid. And I have to say – it was pretty awful. I was tired, yet couldn’t sleep. I was achy, and medicine didn’t help. And …
Oh yeah, Prime Day is coming! Or I should say Prime Days are coming! Have you heard of Prim Day? If you haven’t, Prime Days, July 12th and 13th this year is a time set aside on Amazon for some really great deals. And to get you in the mood for doing a little shopping, …
Awwwww yeah….the summertime horse shows are back for 2022! I haven’t been this excited to go watch some shows at the Colorado Horse Park for well, about a year! I always get excited to take a short drive over to the horse park and play the role of spectator. Every Saturday morning for about 6 …
I honestly think people are losing their minds. And understandably so. With the cost of everything skyrocketing (including everything related to horse ownership) it seems there are those asking if it would be less expensive to commute by horseback instead of driving your car to work everyday.

About a week ago, I had a horrible dream. I dreamt that something was wrong with Plezant. I went outside because I heard a lot of whinnying coming from the barn, and I saw Plezant acting like he was in pain. It didn’t get better, in fact he got much worse. So much so that …
Holy cow I have not been active on my blog for quite some time now. Sorry about that. I kept thinking about things I wanted to write about, and share, but something else kept coming up and I continued to put off adding new blog posts. And then I ended up having foot surgery. And …
I know, I know. It’s the middle of February. Isn’t it a little bit early to start getting ready for fly season? A few years ago, I would have been thinking the same way. However, if there is anything I have learned from the last 2 years is that if you want to get prepared, …
Oh where has the time gone! Long time no post right? Well, Happy 2022! Finally! I have finally made the time to post something on my blog! And I hope your new year is kicking itself off well. Mine has been quiet, which has been SO nice. I have been spending a lot of time …
Happy Christmas time! Christmas is just about here, and if you are anything like me, right now you are thinking about stocking stuffers. You know, little gifts to pack a stocking full of little treasures. And if you are looking for useful, and affordable options to fill an equestrian’s stocking, I thought this list of …
Brrrr….It’s getting cold outside. Like really cold where I live. We are still waiting for the snow, but the temperature has definitely dropped. And one thing that I do every feeding for my horses is turn their meals into a mash, or mush as I like to call it. Now this is mainly due to …
Happy Sunday!!!!! Every year I help my family decide what to get me for Christmas by putting my Christmas wish list here, on my blog, to make it easier for them to shop for me. So this is a little look into the things I would love to get for Christmas this year. And if …
