Daily Journaling of an Everyday Equestrian

January Journaling

Sunday, January 7, 2024 While I was planning on working with Jesse, I had to attend to all of the boring things like laundry, and taking down the rest of my Christmas decorations that were still above my kitchen cabinets. But I did finally finish painting a tall portion of a wall that needed it, …

Welcome!

Hi! I’m Lisa. I started The Budget Equestrian to share what I’ve learned about owning and caring for horses. If there is a budget way to do something with horses – I’ve tried it!
I’ve spent my whole life around horses, and I have recently adopted a Quarter Horse gelding named Timon and a little pony named Pumbaa. You can learn more here. Thank you for stopping by, and happy horsekeeping!
