Pitkästä aikaa

Muutettiin Mädelsin kanssa pois Dumista vappuna, sillä siellä alkoi massiiviset rempat ja koko tallimme suljettiin siksi aikaa. Todennäköisesti emme ole menossa sinne takaisin, hinnannousun vuoksi mutta myös Ellille riittämättömän tarhausajan(3-4h/pvä) vuoksi sekä myös maneesiruuhkien takia(200 heppaa, kaksi maneesia ei vaan riitä).

Palasimme siis 11kk jälkeen takaisin Alsbölen tallille Vantaalle, jossa on remontoidut puitteet ja kaksi kenttää sekä ihanat uusitut tarhat, joissa ei jalat kuraannu! Ja tarhausaikaa on koko päivä. Matka on toki minulle pitkä, mutta jostain on tingittävä eikä tässä lähempänä kovin montaa vaihtoehtoa edes olisi.

Tässä joitakin kuvia viime ajoilta;

Tuomarinkylän pikku kentällä olisko ollut tammikuussa

Elli Alsbölen uusitussa tarhassa

Torstaina Elliä tulee hoitamaan kranioksaaliterapeutti, sillä ajoittaista epäpuhtautta, jonka luulen johtuvan lihasjumeista, on esiintynyt. Tutkitaan asiaa.
Satulashow on myös alkanut, ja etsiskelen uutta penkkiä ja yritän päästä eroon näistä kahdesta epäsopivasta, yksi menikin jo kaupaksi!
Etsin siis Cliff Barnsby koulupenkkiä, mustaa ja 17,5/4 mieluiten, istuinkoko voi olla myös 17. Tai sitten Isabell Werth Bates tai Wintec, punaisella kaarella.

Ponies once again

My own horse has had some toruble with her legs, so we went to see the doctor. Yes, the car is mine and so is the trailer.




Cuckoo!


I bought the travelling boots for her from the "Hevoset Stadikalla" event, I only went to the expo since it was free and I'm quite broke....


Back in the summer I got her these pink things....My teacher asked me "How do yo actually find this stuff?!" A Barbie horse :)!


While in Kuopio I went to ride Helmi at Peikkometsä. She is already 20 years old, but still going strong, so nice! My friend Heidi took these riding pics.





Like Robert Redford, what is the point of Robert Redford?!

While listening to Spearmint's song "Say something else" for a long time I realized the following;

I think I've been lost for a long long time, and now I'm getting back to who I really wanna be, and to what I really wanna do.

I want to study, to have a good education for sure.

I want to ride, maybe not to be as good and it to be as big part of my life as now.

I want to have fun with my friends

I want to travel more, at least twice a year.

I want to learn better french.

I want to look good(I mean to really take care of my looks and be stylish my way)

What I have thought for a long long time is that I want to find a man, to date etc. But nowadays, not so sure about it, maybe I'm better off alone, maybe at this time I am not ready to give up other things to date, I want so badly so much of life, that love just does not fit in right now. I need time for myself, to be selfish. Owning a beautiful, the best horse there is, is enough a family for me for now.

Since I haven't written here for a long while, I got much to say. But I'll save something for later, maybe I got an inspiration to write more here....not sure yet!

Anyway, to a very bad news :(
Some of you may remember my mom black kitty cat Lisbeth, she died today. A car or a truck ran over her, the death was quick but I will miss her. She was a cat who never licked anyones butt, did what she liked and when she liked. Showed always when something is not okey by meowing very loudly and using body language...Lisbeth was named after Lisbeth Salander from the Millenium triology, and she could not have more fitting name.
Liisa lived almost 4 years with my mom, we never learned how old she was, but we guessed maybe now about 5-7years. I won't write more about her, since it is too painful.


Now, to a more cheery topic. 26.9-.30.9 I went to Palma de Mallorca, Spain. The city was nice, hotel was very smooth(Melia Palas Atenea), food was great. I went to pool everyday and got a little tan, I burn very easily so I need to be careful with sunbathing.


 Strawberries& cream for dessert, yammy!


Getting ready for a party night!



I hate to pack, here is my most important packings, Apples&shoes. Actually, I forgot my passport home and needed to drive from my stepmothers home to my home and to the airport...luckily I got in plane on time.



A room with a view


The Tourist


 Hello, I love champagne, do u?



I also love KFC, luckily we don't have it in Finland, because I would be even fatter than now, if we had.



I love Disney movies. And stores. I controlled myself and only bought a plactic glass with a picture of a Sleeping Beauty.


This shop was really inviting, this kind of spice shops were quite numerous in Palma, I don't know how to cook so I did not buy any spices.


If I was a rich girl nanaannanaa-naa, one day I will reward myself with a Louis Vuitton Neverfull-bag. That day ain't here yet unfortunately...


Palm trees! 


A strawberry daiquiri! I also had strawberry mojito, that was very good.






These two food-pics do not do justice to my very favorite event of the vacation. A night at the indian restaurant, you don't order there, they just carry food to the table. And it was so good, 4 courses and red wine. Six different main courses, including banana which I hate, that was only thing not cool in that night. ...The toilets had kama sutra paintings, there were candels, roses and elphants everywhere around the restaurant and the atmosphere was "orgastic" as one of our group said.


Back to the list, what I want from life....I wouldn't mind if my life would include one of these...

Back in the saddle

Last Thursday I fell off while gallopping down the road. My helmet was crushed, my brown Pikeur riding pants are useless and my arm still hurts...I've been still working and riding...let's see if I'm not getting better, I'll have to go to doctor....




A reason to shop new equipment, I bought a black Charles Owen helmet, Wellington Classic. 

Also, a nice Burberry coat for the devil to dry her after hard work.



Some luxury, I went to eat to the restaurant Teatteri, never been there before, a quite fancy place. Food was good, but not that great that I would myself invest in those as much as they cost...

Feels like a holiday

Even thou I've been working most of the summer, it sure feels like a holiday, being without school. Trying to forget that September is too soon here.

I've tried to enjoy, I went to the local zoo one day, to see the kittens...all three of them were sleeping since they are after all night livers...


Then, how I usually spend my day-offs. On a saddle of the most beautiful horse ever. We really need to get some one to take decent photos of us!


Last week I was taking care of these two blondes, I lived in their home, at my friend's home.


The house was quite lovely. I've also put some thought on decorating my own home, but about that later when I get the house even nicer. 

 
Nearby there runs a river,  Vantaajoki, and the landscape while walking the blondes was so great.


So bad puppufever..Can I haz a puppu please!


During Midsummer my friend took some fooling around photos...kind of funny pics xD
Me& Baby

Ponys new home


Sorry for not updating. It's been a while...many changes. The biggest one being, my baby moved to a new stable, closer to me and one of the best stables in Helsinki-area. We have lots of space to ride, very good hay, great staff and nice other customers(horses&owners).

Edels at the new stable!



I don't have that much plans for the summer, mainly work, but I had the time to visit Tampere, went to see the dolphins and to shop riding equipment...a Sprenger KK-Ultra bit, two riding pants from Pikeur etc.
Cotton Candy& me :)



Last Saturday we tried a little jumping, starting with this...not a real jump even xD But I was nervous at first.



Then a little higher jumps. She loved to jump!


Forget how hard it is to ride in a jumping saddle...Btw those are the new Pikeur pants, Cindy. One size smaller than the same pants bought precis a year ago, black ones also Cindy by Pikeur.
