Ah... Yes, a workable option since I always have at least 2 pairs
on in the winter. ;) Usually breeches with ski bibs/ski pants over
them until I get ready to ride. >bg<

Next question for ask Janice? >bg<

when its cold I take the bit and put it underneath my huge american
breasts and let the bridle hang out the bottom of my shirt while I
walk around getting things ready.  My horses probably wonder why
winter means their bits taste a little bit like dial soap.

I have read somewhere, that clutter in our environment robs us of our
energy.  I think it's because we spend so much time trying to ignore
it

Actually I'm forced t obring bridles in the house during the winter. I
hate putting cold bits in those tender mouths, so I hang them on
bridle hooks in the basement and then tuck them inside my jacket when
I go outside.  The driving bridles are a devil to tuck in there.I
look like a big goose as a waddle outside.

You don't want my help... I have my old trainer's bridle, saddle, and
all her horses show halters in our living room. They really need to be
returned, but we're not speaking right now. ;) I have my new Bobby's
Bridle that I have to sell because their version of 'chestnut' doesn't
match, it's beautiful and hanging on my mirror in the bedroom. We have
4 saddles in our living room, magazines and catalogs all over...

[IceHorses] horse house clutter

2007-02-15 Thread Janice McDonald
 Instead of focusing on how awful and
overwhelming it is to declutter, I am visualizing a clean totally
inviting and cozy home, with flickering candles and a turkey in the
oven.  It took me half a day and I still didnt get all the odd bits
and ends of horse tack related stuff outa my house last sunday!  I had english
curb chains in the bookshelves, a brand new Tucker bridle I gave my
husband for christmas on top of the dresser, a freshly washed english
fleece saddlepad on the dining table beneath a pile of jeffers bags
and each bag full of stuff like dog toys on sale and santa fe
detangler.  Then under the coffee table on the second shelf, oh
lord...a throatlatch bridle strap, mohair reins with tags still on,
horse magazines, horse catalogs, piles of tacky jewelry i got from
yard sales to glue onto old bridles as bling, a pen and ink piece of
original art of Robert E Lee and his horse Traveller...  it goes on
and on.  I am worse than a cat lady!

 in the bathroom by the nice art
deco soap dish, a giant tooth that the vet pulled from gallant boy
that I cleaned and wanted to save.  For what??!?  there are freakin
jeffers catalogs in the bathroom floor scattered around, pages stuck
together with a toothpase spillage,  also in the bathroom floor the
Lee Zeigler Book, chicken soup for horselovers, The encycolpedia of
the Horse and The Stud book of the tennessee walking Horse Assoc.  (I
dont have a mare, never have had one).
my new Aegis helmet is in the bathroom sink because I was looking at
myself in the mirror in it.  On top of the tv a bumper sticker that
says "Good Cowgirls keep their calves together" and on the shelf next
to it Lee's bullwhip and aussie hat I bought at the auction when she
died.  Then I have nine cowboy hats in the entertainment center (thats
entertaining).  somebody help me i beg you please help me.
