Hi, Sparky. Glad to see someone else new here! I think you will find a wealth of information, plus friends here that will help you in your journey of learning and growth as a Christian.

Yes, Pastor Roger, I think she'll do fine also. I've had her for a year now, but she's being boarded while we build our home and my husband wants to wait until we are finished to begin formal training. I don't understand stand that, but okie dokie. Anyway, the horse and I have come a long way from the time I bought her. She wasn't physically abused by the former owner, but I guess you could say mentality wise and nutrition wise she was. The former owner had her in a pin that she barely had room to turn around in and she could stand to put on a few pounds. When I first got her, she didn't know what to do with extra space! She settled in a few days later and immediately started gaining weight, but had a not-so-nice disposition. It took nearly 7 months of visiting her everyday before she finally trusted me enough to even groom her. So, from that aspect, we have come a long way. I have researched a lot of trainers and have decided to take a course in the Clinton Anderson methods. I look forward to learning with my beautiful girl.

Now, it's time to go and visit my girl...

Hope your having a beautiful day.

I thought he had been living in Behrain for a good while already. At any rate, I read the other day that he's being sued for non-payment of a personal loan (HUGE loan, can't remember the dollar amount), in which he claims was a gift and didn't need repaying... he's in trouble (again) and grasping at anything to "escape". Yes, he's heading in the wrong direction and there's ONLY ONE who can help him turn him in the right direction...

GO FOR IT!!! As for myself, my two, along with managing my pages on 3 social sites is more than I can handle!

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! Glad you like my horse, Pastor Roger! She's my first horse... and a brat... a BIG brat! lol! I'm knew to horsemanship and really should have bought an older horse that was already trained. However, when I saw her, I just had to have her. She's not broken and not trained, so she doesn't have any respect... unless you want to brush her. ) Well, I'm hoping that we'll be sending her off for training soon... and if she's not trainable then she will make an expensive, but beautiful, lawn ornament.

Well, that could be true... we're staying in town this year and our oven is broke, so dinner will be at Furr's Cafeteria! lol!

The person below me loves sushi.

Bob,

You're sites look very nice! I've got two sites that are mine that I work on. The graphic design isn't a problem, since I'm a graphic designer, but I've had to learn html and coding through trial and error... lots of trial and error! lol! But, I've come a long way and am learning more every single day!

Keep up the great work!

HELLO! I've never belonged to a forum before, so I don't even know where to begin. Usually, I'm not at a loss of words! lol!

First and foremost, I am a child of God... then wife, mother, daughter, and sister. I'm a graphic designer by trade and have been for over 25 yrs. now! A few years back, I finally began listening to God and took my art to a new level. So, now, I also design Christian jewelry and t-shirts.

I've loved art and have been drawing since elementary school. These days, my canvas is my monitor. We've all been given different talents by God in which to use to spread His Word. My gift is art. I have a tendency to stutter (and sweat. lol) when trying to talk to people that I don't know, and my singing would scare everyone away, so, my gift of art fits me perfectly!

I love animals! We have a dog, cat, parrot, and a horse! When we get our house construction completed we'll have ten acres, so we'll get more! lol!

Well, I guess that's about it!

Have a blessed day!
