Be My Valentine



Well it's Sunday night and I'm trying to get caught up on my computer work. The website needed an update which I got done, added a few horses and listed some sold!!
Boy this weather sure has put a damper on everything around here! I have several people interested in horses, just waiting on the weather to clear up to make the trip here, who knows when that will be!
Zach was off of school most of last week and other than working at the office doing massages, I didn't get much else done. It was hard enough getting out the driveway much less getting to the barn! Did I express how angry I am with the weather? We were supposed to leave for the shoot in Florida on Wednesday but again the weather screwed up those plans! The snow hit all along the east coast so it was just too dangerous to try to make the trip. We are planning for a shoot in Indiana the end of Feb. I can't wait for Spring,....have I mentioned that before??? I read somewhere today where 49 of the 50 stes had snow on the ground, the only one that didn't was Hawaii - I'm contemplating a one way ticket to Hawaii.
Anyway, I got caught up on a lot today. Got horses rode and pictures taken. I'll attach pictures of the newest horse for sale listed at Perfect Horse 4 U. His name is Bonanzas Mister Twister or "Mister" for short. He is a 3 year old APHA gelding and more info can be seen at Perfect Horse 4 U on the Show Horses 4 Sale page.
Waited on the shipper to call and pick up Mo this week. He was supposed to leave for Texas and Kim was very anxious for him to get there but unfortunately the weather has held up the shipping so it is looking like he will be picked up next week.
I need to get some videos made of a few horses this week so hopefully everything goes smooth!
Don't forget the cattle sorting next Sunday at Skeeter Hollow,...hopefully the snow holds off and everyone can get their trailers out!!
Well better get back to work!
Stay warm everyone!

It's Feb! WOW

Well here it is February already! Time flies when you're having fun!
It was ANOTHER BUSY WEEK for Perfect Horse 4 U. 5 horses were sold this past week! Perfect matches just keep happening and I couldn't be happier!! If you haven't looked at the website the last few days (where have you been?) well you wouldn't know that Featured Horse for Sale, Ole Velvet Cream Pie sold this past weekend! Ronnie Hutchison came up from Florida on the last day she was to be offered for sale before taking her off the market for the Equine Affair. He came with money in hand and a trailer and took Velvet back home with him to Kentucky! It was bittersweet as you all know this was a special filly who has been a 2 year process, but in the end she found a great home and turned out to be an awesome horse. Ronnie was all smiles when trying her out, and it was great to hear him say over and over, "You did such a good job with her" What a great feeling!
Another horse that sold this week was Jay Puzacke's rope gelding "Chuckie" A family came from PA to try him and came back to buy him. What a cool horse, they are so lucky to have this guy. They were very impressed with Chuckie's youtube video and said over and over how well put together it was so that made me feel great!
Other horses sold the past week include, Mo Money In the Bank. Mo is heading to TX the end of this week! Boy I wish I was going with him!! I'm sure Kim will be so happy to meet him in person when he gets there!
The other horses sold this week include Tami's mare "Cool" or Pleasing Reflection. She is going to be started on barrels by a young girl and I think they will be awesome together!
I'm awaiting a check for my little filly Diva to arrive but I'm fairly certain she is sold also. I talked with a nice lady on the phone about her and she sounds like the perfect fit.

So now I have more people coming this week to look at horses, on top of the fact that I started a new massage job today!! All went well and I am now massaging at Twin City Chiropractic on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I feel like this is a great fit!

Tomorrow I am getting tons of tack to list on the page for sale, giving a lesson and then heading to Mountaineer with Dawn to pick up a TB gelding. I will be working Thursday and then Friday getting a horse ready to go to Armstrong's sale on Saturday.

OTHER EXCITING NEWS!! I entered the Atlantic Coast Classic shoot in Florida and leave with Mike and Dawn next Wed!! I'm so excited to shoot again, I missed it so much last year. I have been riding Zip and brining him back from his injuries he had the past 2 years. He is riding great and feels ready to run! I'm going to Florida to win!! I took the money I was going to use to enter Velvet in the Equine Affair and used it to enter this shoot so I'm so excited to go!!
Jacksonville, here I come!!!

Well I should get to bed, it's been a long day!
Thank you to everyone for your great support! I couldn't do it without you!
