The monthly ones just made me feel like a failure because things always went off in a different direction or life got in the way. Good plan!

It makes me want to do a blog post on best horse blog titles for my Equus Mag blog.

And I have mixed feelings about it as well. It's so handy for me cause Maggie likes to splash (read: LIE DOWN) in water on the trails.

Even though it's expensive, I'm glad you listed it as a goal, since the right saddle can make a WORLD of difference! Loved following your blog this past year - you are unendingly positive, sweet, earnest, and humble. A bright spot in the world!
