plan for riding all my horses and training while working full time

Life is exhausting, but horses are still what fill my cup

listen make it until age 4. Yes there are sweet and fun pockets but man it is HARD when babies are young. I remember postpartum being MAD at people that got 5 hours of sleep. Then I started getting 5 hours and it kept getting better. and better. But yet all hard. If you are dying, get a bike. I'm telling you that saved me. Get a bike trailer or a little buddy seat for your bike. It's fabolous, freeing, they love and you will love it. When babies/toddlers have literally no sel

Life can be really exhausting and stressful but also BORING. Somehow we went (in about 2 days) from my bf sending me this ad to grabbing a couple friends and picking up both of them. It was quite literally the hottest day of the year and 3/4 of us threw up . Am I excited? You bet. Am I questioning if I’m living my best life or stupid? Yes. I’m so nervous and excited to ride Carolina (the Hanoverian). I am a big believer in riding more than 1 horse creates a much better rider!

I'm still struggling with maintaining energy levels. BUT I am proud of myself. I have massively decluttered our main living space and already it feels so much better!! Just did the same with my desk today. It's slightly overwhelming

take a trip in February to survive winter & make it cheap

I don’t have much to say but life is stable. My family is healthy and well and I never want to take that for granted. but also this week was the struggle bus I’ve had 1 hot cup of coffee on my drive in and currently sipping on cup #2 to power through today. The horses are ornaments just eating hay and grain. It’s time to refill my hay stock so that is on my to do list. I’ve been working out more (than Nov/Dec lol) to get started towards my fitness goals this year. This mornin

This year is about underconsumption—making do with what we already have, maintaining what matters, and getting rid of the cheap, disposable stuff that adds clutter to our lives. I narrowed my goals down to the ones that will actually move the needle.

I love reading gift roundup posts and wanted one to look back on years from now. This Christmas, I leaned into everything my 4-year-old loves right now—bones, trucks, hooks, lights, and learning. From an anatomy torso to construction vehicles, sight word games, and a few fun stocking stuffers, this list captures such a fun stage of childhood.

There are seasons. If you’re in the trenches of motherhood right now—exhausted, barely sleeping—this isn’t advice for you. That season is survival, and I promise it passes. But if you’re a mom feeling a little blah, my best advice is to move your body again. Preferably with someone else. Loud music, real effort, laughing through it. When I’m fit, everything in my life feels better. Strength brings my spark back—every time. Merry Christmas, you filthy animals 🎄

Winter is here and darkness falls early. Turns out I’m still really not sleeping much more than the last couple years since I still can’t figure out bedtime. HOWEVER, I am having a lot of fun!! I just pray for God to bless my sleep and make it count more lol! I got a scooter for my son’s birthday and lately we have been having chase parts where he pushes a chair and I ride the scooter around in circles. Malibu Jacks. What a fun place, it's so fun watching him play! Watching y

We hit 24 degrees F the last couple of days. Really early for us in KY to hit that cold this early. Which meant we were scrambling to get everything ready for the animals. Winter is another ballgame if you have livestock. Especially large animals. Horses wormed – check Cow shelter put out – check Fresh hay bales put out for everyone – check Blankets folded, organized and put on- check Hoses drained – fail. We have been scrambling so I just ran out of time. Thankfully the col

Farm life update: barn doors ✔️ cow shelter in progress 🐄 hay run completed (barely 😅). It’s been a busy few weeks, but we’re getting closer to the dream — one muddy project at a time.

A chaotic but hilarious day at the vet — between a nervous puppy, a cat with an eye infection, and one very messy truck ride home, this farm mom proves she can handle it all (mostly).
