New Computer and an Update

I've had my old computer for 7 years or so, and it was starting to slow down and gradually fall apart. It also recently got a virus and keeps freezing, which is why I haven't been posting lately. So, I finally decided to get a new computer. It won't be here until the 11th though. I decided to get a Dell XPS. I wanted a Macbook, but it would have ended up being over a thousand dollars. I'm hoping my new laptop lasts as long as my old one.

The horses have been doing well. I rode Pony on Friday. He did ok, but  got a little frustrated when I wouldn't let him go into the run-in shed (we were riding in the paddock.) We really need a riding ring, but they are rather expensive. We have other projects that need done before that though. We also want to repaint the fencing. Glory is doing ok. She has a short attention span though, and keeps getting distracted. It reminds me of when Pony was that young. She still tries to bite quite often, but hasn't tried to kick or rear at us in quite a long time.

A couple of days ago Rerun posted this link on facebook. It's a saddlepad with a logo design for OTTB. They are really cute. The place will also donate 5 dollars to the rescue that you put in the message section of the order form. They also say that if you don't like it they will refund your order along with the shipping cost. I would get one if I had an OTTB, but maybe I'll buy one for my mom for her birthday.
