New Grazing! New Moving Date!

Wow! I have had an amazing week, hectic but amazing!

My moving date has been changed to the 17th because of a bunch of things, mostly from Tony. I don't mind anymore because i found out the real reason on Wednesday.. Nobody saw this coming!

My sister rang me up on Wednesday, apparently she had been trying to ring me for a while. I had been working in my room preparing it for the moving date.

So my sister had come to Sharon and Tony's place for a visit and apparently Sharon had got a flier in the mail about this horse grazing just down the road - i mean literally just down the road - walking distance from where i'm going to be living. The grazing is with another lady called Sharon- she is married with a ten year old daughter. The grazing is twenty-five a week - just within my budget and you would believe the things that come with it! I'm enclosing photos hopefully, of it and pictures of Prince at the moment.

So for twenty-five a week, i get : A stable, grass, a SAND riding arena, covered tying up yard- just outside the stable, and an big yard to put him in closer to the house, and use of the fencing gear!!!! The thing i'm most rapt about is the riding arena, cause i'm always worried about messing the paddocks up, and i get worried about the mud.

So i think this has been the best week ever!

Hmm, the photo's won't load so i'm gonna try another post...

 

Scary Keys, Grazing, and a Float!

Everything is sorted! i have a place to stay, and Prince has gazing and Mahony Hire is gonna let us have a float for $90 for the weekend- with bars in the back!

Prince's gazing is about fifteen minutes away from Mt Munganui. He will be grazing with Standarbred's. The people who he will be staying with, they harness race them. The grazing is five dollars a day, thirty-five a week- which is a little out of my price range, but i am thankful for my mummy, who is helping me out.

As for the float, we went to Hawera hire and they wanted to charge us 145-195 for the weekend, and that was for a horse float with chains. I am glad Tony knew where to look!

The people whom i will be staying with are a lovely couple with a little darling daughter called Ella - Elizabeth Jane. Their names are Sharon and Tony.

As for the scary keys.. I had my car keys in my pocket (yes i passed my restricted! Also i own a car!) and i was jingling them and Prince started to get wide eyed and started to snort. i slowly pulled them out and let him sniff them.
  He shot backwards when the wind jingled them, so i started shaking them. He starting running around the paddok like a loony, so i just stayed calm with my leg relaxed and calming thinking about what i had for tea last night. After about ten minutes (i'm not kidding) he finally stopped running so i stopped jingling the keys too. he was fine after that, so just a tip! check to see if your horse like's keys lol.

I'm not sure when we are moving, Tony is worried about a few things, like he's not sure if he can pick up the float, and Jackie (his sister) isn't going to be there for this weekend (we were going to stop for a break there). i was hoping we could moving me on the tenth, but now it might be the 17th. Who knows now..

If we have to change it, i have so much more to do... ugh!
