5 for Friday

1.) What are your plans for this weekend? Attended (since I just got this post- been gone since Fri AM) Michigan Horse Council's Annual Horse Expo at Michigan State University Pavillion. We left Friday morning at 10am and returned to MP at about 10pm, I saw tons of horses, tons of horse poo, tons of people, numerous seminars, bought two shirts, and horse treat for Junior, and sleep. Sleep more, and sleep a bit more. I am truly exhausted!!!!!!!!!!!!! Walked at least 10-20 miles this weekend! 2.) How many times in a month do you eat out? Eat out- defined as getting it to go or dining in? I get it to go. Quite often I get small things about 3 times a week from GTpie co. Or I may get Tim Horton's soup and coffee and roll, and so I'd say -15-20 times a month. This weekend alone we hit 4 restaraunts in Lansing and here when we returned. 3.) What's the first thing you're going to do in your yard when this snow is gone? I don't have a yard. 4.) What do you take for cold/sinus issues? Been a while since I had a cold, but take Sudafed or Tylenol Cold/Sinus. 5.) You've got TEN minutes to shop at any store in America and unlimited funds, where are you going to shop and what are you going to buy? This is a toss up. Hard - tough choice. 1. Tommy Hilfiger outlet store in Howell (Tanger outlet Mall) and buy: jeans, socks, sweaters, shirts, purse, watch, blouses, shorts, denim skirt and a bag. 2. Millbrook Tack & Supply in Culterville, MI (south of Grand Rapids) - horse tack and supply store. I'd buy: and english saddle, bridle, trailer for 2 horses, new Ariat paddock boots, ariat riding winter boots, new riding gloves, a few shirts, some full seat riding breeches, a truckload of horse treats and grooming supplies and then wrap up the entire shopping trip buying part of the artwork on display for my home! Those to me are two tough choices!

Hay....Judy, myself and Hubby were there all day friday too funny we did not run into you..but then again there is no way we walked 10 to 20 miles the place was not big enough and there might of been 75 head of horses so maybe we were some place else. lol

Hay Jenny!!!!! We had a blast there didn't we!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never had so much fun like we had yesterday at MSU HORSE EXPO!!!! Was great being with "REAL HORSE PEOPLE!!!!!" Can't wait til you are able to ride again!!! We are going to have so much fun!!! And the HORSE SHOWS WE WILL BE GOING TO!!!!! That is going to be so cool!!!! And it is funny that we never saw anyone there that we knew isn't it??? WOW!!! Simply amamzing!!!! And that STUD you picked out to breed to your mare is totaly awesome!!!! I can't wait to see the new foal when its born!!!!

So what makes someone a "real horse person" or a "fake horse person"

We were there Friday from 11am to about 8pm and then returned on Saturday at 10 am and left about 4pm Saturday. My friend ordered a barn, fencing, and then bought two english dressage saddles and the tack to go with it. She then placed an order for stud service with Image of Champions for her managers Mare. Needless to say, she spent well over 8 thousand dollars in two days to complete the ensemble of her fine upper level Boarding Facility and offering Equine massage, and dog training and horse clinics that will be finalized in June 2007. Hope you enjoyed the Haflingers, they are owned by my neighbors family also.
