Not Much Has Been Going On

I haven't played with Jewel lately. Between my classes and Jewel's stifle problems, I just haven't had the time to do anything. I did play with her a couple of weeks ago when she didn't want to stand still for me to trim her feet. She is moving better, but you can still tell something is wrong when she stops from a trot or canter.

A few weeks ago, I started playing with Ashes again. I am hoping to find her a nice Parelli home soon. I've had a saddle pad and surcingle on her now. She has been doing really well. At 5, she has the maturity to handle the situations presented to her. We have been working on the 7 games as well. I've played with Millie a bit too. She has decided to become a problem horse. She used to be my little sweetie pie that I could do anything with and now she has decided that she is a big girl and will do what she wants. Regardless of this, we had a nice liberty session the other day. We just did some simple stuff like zone 3 driving game and a few of the 7 games.
