NaNoWriMo

I am contemplating whether or not I want to give this a try again this year. I started late last year and was wildly unsuccessful. I did not do any sort of prep work for it though, so I am thinking about doing my homework for it this year.
Anyone else planning on doing it this year?

The DH and I have our 3yr anniversary coming up. We are spending a few nights at a B&B in a small town. I can't wait!

Zoey's first "ride"

Zoey and I had a big day today...work on the driving lines and (drumroll please!) I sat on her for the first time. I have started quite a few babies but sitting on my own that I helped foal out was the best feeling in the world. She was fantastic; she felt really steady and was completely calm about the entire thing. She even went and stood on the walker after we finished like a real, grown-up horse. I'm so proud!
Side note- she is so light-mouthed. I had her in a plain snaffle today to drive her and she was way overdone. I may have to start her in a side pull. I used to start them all in side pulls but had moved to using a snaffle from the beginning recently...

My week so far...

Here is what my week has looked like so far... Playing with puppies, dissecting a sow heart in lab, and frozen yogurt (which may or may not have happened several times in the past week. Don't judge!).

Oh, and my cat is a wino. That crazy Oliver!

I am watching Breaking Amish right now. What an interesting way of life!

Ooo exciting development!

I figured out that there is an app for Blogger... Consider this a test run to see if it works. All my pictures are on my phone, so it is a major pain in the ass to sync them all to my computer and then create a post. If this actually works then this will make me much more likely to post!

If the pic shows up like I think it will... Check out Miss Zoey getting close to ready to ride! So far so good!
