Finals are quickly approaching leaving me with very little time to myself. I live in a pattern of sleep, study, work, and school. Usually by this time of year I start feeling restless for summer. I need the time away from school so I can regain my enthusiasm for studying which most of the time I honestly enjoy. For now I can feel summer on the horizon and I can’t wait for long lazy days spent at the barn. Today I moved Jasper to the back pasture which has caused him to give me sullen looks from across the fence, but I know it is a good move for him since the horses in the back pasture are about his age and more likely to play. I am still practicing cantering and I have started working with Jasper on clicker training so that eventually I can ask him to lay down. I have high hopes that by the end of the summer Jasper and I will be settled into our partnership. Once Leslie is back on her feet I would really like to go for a trail ride at one of the state parks. Until then I have been keeping stalls clean and taking care of Penny’s wound which is looking much better, and slowly getting the barn area cleaned up and fly free.
