Not much point having a pony with no tack... A necessary spend, I would say.:DPaid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -

She came with tack but it didnt fit and wasnt "hers".

Quite a busy day of pony and chores. She was super good today.
Very annoyed with self as burnt half a pack of chips to cinders.
On the upside, the bucket of broken dishwasher tabs off the bay of fleas is still half full and think we have had a year already.
Today I am grateful for
* pony love
* puppy love
* wm big enough to get a horse rug in
* two sunny days
* tea.0 -

They are second only to sheep in the imaginative ways they can hurt themselves.
Parents' eve this week. Got half way out with pony and remembered DH was supposed to be at a meeting. Legged it home leaving DB to go yomping.
