.: Latest news....


Thankyou to everyone who commented the other day.

Basically,

My Yard Owner's Wife [a complete multiple personality angry woman] asked the other day if they could have my horse trailer keys, because someone from a show they recently held, had seen it, and because their horse isnt great with trailers, they wanted to buy a bigger one. Saw mine, and wanted to know if their car would tow it, and if it would be any good.

I will add now that my trailer is not for sale, never has been, never will, and also, it is an Equi Trek, so it looks to the horse like it's a horse box, because they load at the side and face backwards.

I said it was OK that they could try my trailer, but i would have to be there. The Yard Owner's Wife asked for the keys, and i said no, I will have to be there if someone is using my trailer, as it is not insured for other people to use. Yet she asked several more time's, and i simply said my aunt would come over with me, if they had any questions about towing ect [Plus if their 'car' wasnt up to pulling the trailer, and the car got damaged, me being there wouldnt help the legal issue. Most trailers here are a ton or less, mine is 2.5 tons, so as you can imagine, most 4X4's cannot pull it.]

She said it was fine that i go at lunchtime on sunday [yesterday]

On the yard saturday night, told by the YO'd Husband [hes actually the nicer of the two] said if my keys werent there at 9am the next day [being the same day we were coming at lunch time] I would have a 28 day notice to find a new yard.

Now, lets think,

I give someone MY trailer keys, or I get kicked off the yard?!?!? How REDICULOUS is that??

The yard has it's major problems, mainly being that they have NO clue at all about horses, but for gods sake. I spoke to several of the other liveries, and one mentioned they had been doing a similar thing to others when they had complained about the shit service [one reason im always on DIY]

To prevent me ranting and raving about them any more, it got "sorted" by my aunt, although she's just as pissed off and confused as i am.

I dont know why i take such shit from a MPD crazy witch, but i suppose it could be to do with the fact that Spud took so long to settle, and now he's finally settled i just dont want to stress him out again. Bah, i dont know. Although i know if a better yard opens up near by i will certantly be moving, as will alot of the other liveries!!

Now i know why i like animals more :lmao:

I guess though, i wish i was back at my old yard, but that's too close, far too close.. and he can never know that

.: Fave's of the Month


Well it's time to look for favourite art again! Like my first fave of the month journal feature,i liked the art that much, i left them up for over 2 months. Please check my past journal entries for previous fave's of the month, as they are all exeptional art pieces. Check back for updates! :D


.: Tool of the Time


Im often asked what 'tools' i use for my work, so as i go through various new mediums, i shall post about them..
So starting off;

Daler-Rowney Artist's sketching combination set

Wonderful set, still working through each pencil.
You get the full set of sketching pencils, as wel as
Graphite,
Charcoal,
'White' and 'Black' drawing
Sanguine smooth, Sanguine drawing
Watersoluble 4b, 8b, HB,
Black smooth,
Sepia Drawing Light,
Sepia Drawing Dark,

For someone who isnt all that great with using different colours to create a piece of work, this is a great set to practice getting the different tones and shades without having to worry about getting all the colours looking perfect

9/10

I punch a punching bag^^ Relieves my anger. Or I listen to loud music.

I love the song lyrics you put at the very bottom... I love that song!

I'm a little confused here but I usually just punch my punching bag or play with my swords.

I'm an Avatard and proud of it!!

I ship Kataang, Toko, Maiko, Zutara, and Sukka.

I am addicted to Avatar: The Last Airbender, and I am not ashamed.
:iconehawlz:
My sarcastic half wanted me to post simply this:

"I go sharpen my knife :aww:"

But, I decided that I want to give a serious reply.

Sometimes, I'll split wood, I don't have a wood burning stove any more, but it seems to work to burn off negative energy, or sometimes I'll just go sit on one of my stalls and watch my horses,(and usually get a few nuzzles which makes me feel better.)
A lot of the time, I go to the complaints forum, and type a really long complaint. I never submit it-but typing it all helps me get it out, and I feel better until someone makes me that angry again.

Hitting things with the wooden swords that I carve works well too, but then I get mad for ruining something that I worked on for hours.

...if you know what I mean.

Paddle faster, I hear banjos! :ohnoes:
:iconoasispegasus:
:rofl: A kinfe wouldnt give enough pain! I'd like them to really really suffer :D

So true.. I wrote out of two forums about the situation, and theyre all quite supportive, but it's still annoying when it's only on a computer and they cant take the problem away. Why people have to be so fucked up in the first place i just dont know.. I mean, fair enough if your an asshole and they eventually bite back, but when they just decide to be complete arseholes all on their own... i just despair at the human race, i really really do..

Sounds fun though!

Equestrian photography and Traditional art. :floating:
:iconcdlauryl:
As the others have said, punching bags are very useful! Once, when I was the angriest I think I've ever been, I beat on mine for something like two hours. My muscles were sore for a week, but it helped immensely with the frustration.

Also, silly Q - do you know if there's any similarity between your EOSs (what an awkward plural) and an EOS Rebel 2000? I bought it used, so it has no manual (and Canon has no downloadables for that model), and I learned photography with such esoteric things as F-stops and shutter speeds, so I need a symbol translation somewhere. I don't know what "flower" or "mountain" means in traditional terms, and I thought you might have an idea. (I admit, I've been toying with the idea of trying to get a Digital Rebel, because then I'd have a maybe-related manual AND both a film and a digital SLR with interchangeable lenses - yes, I'm a geek)

Me? I get onto to Halo and murder people that way, or play Assassin's Creed, or any other video game that involvles either shooting or stabbing. :nod: It calms me down very well. That's when I can't go hug my horse.

I'm sorry to hear you're having these troubles! It's amazing that even though horses can be extremely spaztic and cause a lot of drama, it's mainly the people involved with them that are the main cause of like 90% of all horsey drama.... (if that made no sense, I appologize ^^;)
