Vilken blogg-fantast!
Näe ni, det här med blogg funkade bra en stund, men det har totalt ebbat ur. Sâ mycket att göra och sâ lite tid!
Allt rullar väl pâ som vanligt, men har mycket städjobb och ännu mer hästjobb sâ lânga dagar varje dag.
Joren hâller pâ i trädgârden och man börjar sakta men säkert kunna börja urskilja lite kunturer!
Om exakt en vecka sâ opereras jag, och japp, jag börjar bli lite nervös faktist men det är väl normalt det med antar jag.
Itza gâr fortfarande och har det bra i hagen, rund och go. Har mognat i sig själv, och tagit plats i hagen, istället för att vara den lilla fâgelungen som alla hackar pâ.
I övrigt sâ är det samma visa hela tiden, jobb jobbjobb! Men nu frân och med nästa vecka dâ, sâ har jag 2 veckors sjukskrivning, och sen tar jag 2 veckors semester direkt pâ det, sâ det blir 4 veckor utan jobb nu! Ska njuta! En vecka blir det med bil till Sverige, och som jag längtar!! :D
Once again, long time ago...
Now i have been real crappy at updating here, its not easy to get the time for it!
Alot has been going on, alot of doctors appointments and so on, and now its discussing about that i might need surgery, again, but this time for my sinuses. Many of them are totally blocked, some has signs of chronical sinusitis and shit like that. My health is just a never ending shit story.
I dont know anymore if i told you about the competition last weekend? It went good anyway, and we saw what we wanted. Boogaloo became a stallion, in a good way.
For the rest there is work work work on the schedule.
On thursday this week Joren and i took a break in this busy life we are having, and went to a private sauna / Spa :) It was nice, ok the place itself could have been a bit better, but it was still good, and it was nice to have some time with eachother for once :)
Today, we have been to a fleamarket, and Joren found quite some stuff. I only made our cactus collection bigger by buying 2 more ;)
Well, in general this has been a pretty slow day, but we both needed it :)
Bara en annan dag som alla andra.
Just nu gâr mitt liv väldigt upp och ner, och även bak och fram. Lika sâ hälsan. Jag har mycket tungt framför mig just nu, men jag försöker glädjas av de smâ sakerna.
En av sakerna som glädjer mig just nu är att pâ lördag sâ ska jag tävla! Första gângen i Belgien! Det är jag och hingsten Boogaloo som ska ta oss en sväng om.
Det blir bara 2 st superlätta program men vad gör det? Han har aldrig tävlat dressyr, sâ det kan vara bra med en lätt start för o se vad han säger.
För övrigt, idag har jag longerat de unga grabbarna igen. Elcado fick pâ sig en sadel för första gângen, och som vanligt sâ brydde han sig knappt alls! Han är en cool grabb.
Excellcior stâr still just nu dâ han har blodmask, och mâste behandlas för detta. Och jag hoppas att han blir helt kvitt det för man ser pâ hela honom att han har det. Han har matt lâng päls, är tunn, "matt" i sitt temperament och trött.
Esquiro, den nervöse, ligger lite efter Elcado i utbildningen, vi har nu fâtt pâ honom inspänningstyglar, men endast jättelöst. Dock sâ har jag märkt att det är en "enmans-flick-häst". Mathias och jag har alltid longerat de unga tillsammans, dvs en hâller i hästen och en sköter pisken, men idag longerade jag Esquiro själv och han var genast mycket lugnare. Sâ länge man pratar och berömmer och gör allting lugnt och metodiskt sâ gâr det kanon. Och jag har ju, vilket jag och mânga andra redan vet, en mycket lugnande effekt pâ nervösa och speciella hästar.
Imorrn ska jag till Schriek och ge lektioner igen, och det är alltid kul. Fick veta att en av flickorna blev Dressyr mästare i helgen, och jag blev hjärtligt tackad för mitt jobb. Det värmer alltid!
Nu blir det till att ta mig en dusch och slappa, och inte allt för sent i säng för jag är lite hängig och trött i allmänhet.
Spring cleaning in the stable!
Today has been one of them days when you dont feel like sitting at home.
Joren has been working the whole day, so after that i was in Schriek to do the ponies there, i went straight to the stable and started fixing.
Frank and Mathias was away with 2 horses on competition, so i started with putting Boogaloo outside, and then i did all the empty boxes clean. After that i filled all the food barrels, put all the plastics in bags, and then!!! I took the big, superlong broom, and took aaaaaaall the spiderweb away from the stable. Wich was suuper nessecary.
After that i also cleaned my tack. When i was finished with mine, i went on and did Mathias tack aswell. So now everything is nice and clean, and ready for a new week of work :)
Thats how it always should be if you ask me. At least 1 time a week, the tack should be fully cleaned. ( I do prefer to clean it every day but the time is not there.)
So now both Joren and me are showered, and will hit the sofa.
We are both sleeping really badly right now, because of our bodies, so we hope that we will get a good nights sleep this night. So fingers crossed!

Ibland vet jag inte hur jag nâgonsin ska fâ mitt liv att fungera.
Just another week :)
Last period of time has been nice.
Last weekend my Mother and Sister were here in belgium, visiting us. I had hoped to have a bit more energy but it could have been worse. They got to see a bit of Lier, and also a bit of Antwerp, and in general, our way of living.
I think they found it fun, and it was very nice to have them here!
For the rest, not much has happened, im back to work, but im still tired actually, but it goes ok. Have not been riding almost anything this week, because of tiredness and also bad weather. Its back to winter, AGAIN, and we are all sick of it.
But from next week on i will start to ride again, if the weather allows, because i miss it.
Today my lovely boyfriend made some really tasty food, and i actually dared to try some wine. But it was red, and im not a big fan of it, plus that i have not been drinking for i dont know how long, so i felt a bit ill. So no more wine for me :p Well, im ok with that because i dont feel that i have any need of drinking. Just can be nice sometimes to certain food.
For the rest the evening will be slow, and hopefully cozy, since we are both home for once :)
Have a nice weekend!
Lovely spring!
Right now is really not the best period in my life. My body seems to get worse, more painful. And i get more and more other problems, like the big things inside my nose, wich dont disappear, my throat hurts as hell, and my voice is almost gone, and my eyes are red and itchy... So tomorrow im off to a nose-throat-ear doctor to go down with a camera again, too see how it is in there..
The only thing that keeps me very positive right now is the lovely weather! Since 3 days ago, the spring came here! It is at least 15 degrees, think even up to 20 in the sun. Real lovely! So Itza has been outside a bit during day without blanket, and she just loves it. But you do notice that the quick weather change takes some power from the horses, they are quickly tired and not as willing to work. But it will come, the spring has just knocked them down a bit. They will get back up toghether with the spring flowers and early grass ;)
And btw, Here is the things i bought at the Flanders horse expo!
Im still alive...
So, what's new?
Yesterday me and my boyfriend went to "Flanders horse expo" in gent, and it was nice, but had hoped it had been a bit better organized. It started with dressage for 4 hours, and of course that was what i wanted to see the most, but Joren got pretty bored. So During the dressage we was watching a bit, and then looking around a bit and then a bit watching again, and that was totally fine by me.
After the dressage it was Horseball, and that i think was a bit more interesting in Jorens eyes, a bit more speed and action than the dressage.
We also saw indoor race with 4 horse+wagon. That is something i really love to watch!
The last thing we actually watched was the Reining clinic, with Anky van Grunsven, and i must say that it felt a bit weird to see her in western clothes.
For the rest i found myself a new pair of riding pants and a new Saddleblanket for my horse ;) Was about to buy the yellow one that i aaaaalways want to buy, but amazingly enough i bought a military green one, with Orange edge details! Really nice =)
The only thing is, when im at places like that, i get a bit too caught up in everything, and i forget to eat. So i was suuuperdizzy yesterday and had to drive home from gent in a lot of traffic! Did not make me happy.
Today im home sick! Vomited this morning, but i think it has to do with yesterdays eating habbits, and i also have a really bad cold with painful throat :( So im possitioned in the sofa with a big cup of tea, and a blanket wrapped around me. Hope im feeling a bit better later on, because i do want to ride!!!
For the rest, Itza is in heat/ having her period, and she and Boogieboy are toootally in love! I would soooo like to let them meet, and get a little one, because im sure it would be a pretty perfect pony combo! But now is not the right time as always..
Now im gonna take it a bit more easy and make sure to feel better.
shame on me! ;)
Wow, i have really gotten bad on blogging... Too tired in the evenings, and too much to do during day.
Well , yesterday it was time for lessons again, and it starts going better and better. The girls are starting to find their horses real good.
For my horse and the other ones in the same stable, its going slower right now. The paddock is being re-done, so not much can happen there for the moment. Today i jogged Itza and Boogaloo in the field, but its not possible to do any "serious" work there. But guess i just have to have some patience. Hopefully tomorrow its finished.
For the rest there is alot of things going on, and happening around us, but we will hang in there and make everything work. Even if it takes the last energy out of us.
Since im for once home early, i will try to have a calm evening and be a bit "lazy".
But im still alive!
Long time, no writing?
Okey, now its very long time ago since i wrote here. It has been hectic, since the snow melted last weekend, and now the riding is fully busy. For the moment i ride every day for clients, and then also my precious Itza!
So its work,work,work! For the rest there havnt been that much else happening, but there has also not been any time for anything else to happen.
Yesterday was a real "dressage day" for me. With bo there was shoulder in ( in canter and trott), Canter pirouettes, and explosive work. He did very good actually.
Then it was Dwina, who was strong as hell, so had to sitt down and really work her through, and in the end it was good.
Itza is in a period right now where everything seems hard, and everything is scary. She is very spooky, but guess it comes alot from the wind. But guess that she is also a bit stiff, from not working for almost 2.5 weeks. Hopefully it gets better soon again.
Today i have been training the ponies Maestro and Minerva, and also held a lesson for 8 year old Olivia, in jumping/ (Markarbete).
So now im finally here in the sofa, taking it easy, and soon im gonna watch "Ponnyakuten", and later on we are gonna do some swedish lessons for my love :) hihi its gonna be fun..
Hopefully i will get better at this blog thing, but its just so much rignt now :)
En dag i Paradiset
Ni andra "stridslystna" ute i världen, hur orkar ni brâka? Senaste tiden har det för min del varit brâk varenda jäkla dag, och jag klarar det inte. Jag krymper. Jag orkar inte! Jag mâr sâ jävla dâligt när det är sâhär att jag bara vill lägga mig ner och tjuta. Helt jävla nervvrak, skakig som jag vet inte vad. Jag kan ju inte ens diskutera normalt, jag har svârt att formulera mig o dâ blir jag frustrerad o tack vare det sâ börjar târarna svida i ögonen, och de är ohejdbara. Jag vet fan inte hur man beter sig som normal.
I övrigt mâr jag sämre än vanligt, har sâ sjukt ont i kroppen, och det tar sâ jävla mycket energi och tâlamod. Handleden är inflammerar som fasen, som spritt sig till fingrar. Rygg slutet ömmar sâ förgrymmat, târna smärtar, och sâ lite migrän pâ det. Jag orkar inte.
Började grâta förut när jag var i stallet. Stod inne i Itzas box, och hon märkte och förstod uppenbarligen att jag var ledsen / inte mâdde bra. Vad jag grundar det pâ är att hon slickade mig i ansiktet upprepade gânger, och sedan började försiktigt "buffla" pâ mig ( Alltsâ inte sâ hârt och okontrollerat som hon vanligen gör.) sedan efter ett tag sâ la hon mulen försiktigt mot min axel tills jag lugnade ner mig. Hon är den som gör mig hel.
Jag orkar inte!
Bored...
Still, no riding... its killing me.......!
Yesterday we where on IKEA, and shopped an awful lot of things. But most of the things we really needed, so guess it was nessecary ;)
Also went to the little "food-store" on ikea, and bought some "knäckebröd", "Lingonsylt (<3), "vaniljsâs", and Havreflan. Yumyum! 5 cookies of around 30 left today hmmm... yep, yumyum! :)
For the rest there is just boring, normal work... Day in and day out. So yep, im bored..
Now im sitting waiting for the roof guy to leave so i can take a shower and go to bed, but im afraid i can wait for a looong time, since they are drinking beer....................................
Quiet!
There has been pretty quiet now from my side.. Well thats just because of the fact that its not happening anything for the moment in my otherwise so busy life...The snow and minus degrees is preventing me from riding and its still getting me crazy... Even my boyfriend has noticed a slight temper change in me... Nothing uncommon though..
Well, it seems like the degrees will go up again next week, and i do really hope so! All the horses are as bored as me, so its about time for the snow to disappear now :)
This is just a short one again, but yeah, when there is nothing to write about, then im not gonna write about some bullshit just because :p
So hang in there, it will get more again but not for the moment :)
Snow,snow, SNOW!
Okey, i must tell you one thing! Im getting crazy! I have not neen riding for hmm 3 days, and its killing me! The goddamned snow is making it difficult right now! We dont have an indoor, so the paddock is frozen, and now with snow on it, so the horses has a rest -.-
I want to get started with them all, and prepair them for a possible competition season! And of course i just want to ride, because i love it, and it clears my mind so nicely.
Well, too let myself smell a bit more horse anyway, im mugging out more boxes (To be nice to the others.) , Trimmed Itzas mane yesterday, cleaning her in general, and of course an awful lot of extra cuddling ;)
I have also not been cleaning my tack for soon 2 weeks, and i feel a bit ashamed.. Its dirty, and would need a good rubbing with the grease, but since we dont have any warm water what so ever in the stable, im not that satecfied with putting my hands in that ice cold water... Well, better toughen up, it has to be done.
Something that i should do, is clean off my boots, and go to the shoemaker, and see if he can fix them... They now have a nice hole on the inside of the leg...Would be nice to be able to use them a bit longer, since i like them very much.
I have heard rumers about that its gonna be like this in the weather, next week aswell... Poor me, and poor horses! Itza has the luck anyway of being outside every day, since thats in my eyes the most right thing to do. But the other horses in the stable, is only standing in their boxes.. Im not looking forward to go up on some of them, the first time after this... They are allready ticking bombs...
Picture bomb!
Just have been saving some pics from my phone, so the quality aint too good but some pictures are nice anyway! Here they come!
Walitza today, in the mudd and sun!
Itza in her new pyjamas and new collar!
The young lads!
Again, Good night!
Lazy saturday!
Yesterday evening it started freezing here in Belgium. And with freezing comes the fact that the paddock gets frozen... Normally today i should have been riding 2 horses, and lunging Itza, but since it is frozen, no such things occured. I Went to the stable and did Itzas box and so on, and gave her an apple wich the got very happy for.
Frank and Mathias was salting the paddock today, so hopefully if will get soft and ridable again, maybe allready tomorrow! Then problem is solved. The only thing is that i really dont like salted paddocks. It is really not good for the horses legs and hoofs! And my beauty Walitza has finally gotten cured from shitty "mokk/Mok" (Mugg in swedish), but im a bit afraid that the salt will bring it back. And also, she has really dry hoofs, and that will for sure not get better by salt. But i guess i should be happy if the paddock is ridable. I just have to be sure to wash the legs good after every riding pass.
For the rest i have just been home today, not doing much at all! My love went to a gig tonight, but i really didnt feel like going today, and staying up late. Have been soooo tired lately that i just want to get as much rest as possible. Dont know if its thanks to all the medicines, or if its just the darkness that surrounds us all in winter time. Maybe it is both.
So not much more will occur today, think i will put on a movie and then just go to sleep and wake up happy and fresh in the morning!
Nightynight!
Just another monday.
So, here we are again, Monday, many days left until weekend.
Today i worked till 13.00, and now within 30 min im off to the stable, to take care of Itza (Hopefully she is better so i can start to work her again.) And also have a couple of horses to do.
Yesterday was the day with the big D! Now we have a Kitchen ( Still with a shower in it ;D ) , a Livingroom!!, a hallway, and a bedroom! It feels a bit weird to be living this "big" to be honest. You got used to live so small, with sooo much stuff, that now when there is possibility to move, it feels real huge!
But i think we where finished around 21.00 yesterday, (Still have some small things to do but yeah) and i think we started around 16.30 or so to clean up. There was an awfull lot of dust, spiders+web, and so on and so on. Took me a while so to say.
But it feels great. First night in the bedroom and i slept shit though... Guess because of new place, new sounds, and light from the road ( since we dont have anything to cover the windows with yet.) And also, you have to walk to the other side of the house to take a pee, so then you are fully awake when you arrive back to bed... Just get used to it ;)
So now continue with my day!
The drug that all humans are addicted to : Money.
Have been thinking quite alot about it during work today, and is it not crazy how money can make people totally change, give mood swings, make us humans act totally weird?
I meen for examlpe, like them crazy hollywood bitches, who are around 40+ but acts like 15? And makes so much surgery to their bodys just to look younger, but they just look like aliens...
Just because they can, and getting older is their biggest fear, they will spend so much money on it that us "regular people" could only dream about.
And then on the other side of the cake: People who dont have enough instead... Ive seen it happen, that persons totally changes their personallity, temper and moods when its starts being tough.
We get into fights and arguments easily just because of money problem.
We spend our whole life to get money, money that we at the same time spend meanwhile.
Is it really the mening of life, to work our asses of for the rest of our life?
There is of course those who has is even worse, who cant afford to have food on the table, but thats not what i want to light up here.
What i meen is just, when you live in the "middle" not too poor, but still, you dont have enough to do what you want, what you need. Is it then we who have too high standards for our lives, or is it that we dont work enough? Dont earn enough?
Hmm, alot of thoughts run trough my head about this subject but wont make it too long.
It just amazes me, how it came to being addicted to money..
In sweden!
Well here i am, day before christmas, with a massive headache :( Hoping that i wont wake up with it tomorrow again, because then im pretty fucked, for some reasons...
Have not done THAT much yet, just been at home having quality time with my family, and how i have missed them!
Today we have been making some christmas candy, and i have also baked the lemon cake i wanted to try, and it was daaaamn tasty!
Yesterday my mom, me, my sister, and her friend was shopping the last christmas presents, and some new underwear for me. Wasnt planned, but found quite some nice stuff for not much money :)
Tomorrow there is christmas eve, and it will be spent in my grandparents place, and it will be nice to see them again.
The day after christmas im gonna go horse-stuff-shopping with Poot!! :D and in the afternoon/evening im gonna meet up with Löken :)
On wednesday my "plastic" grandfather is coming down from sthlm, and later on that day my grandfathers birthday is gonna be celebrated.
On thursday im gonna meet my lovely childhood friend that i havnt met for i dont know how long now! And im reaaaaaally looking forward to it! Have been missing her quite alot!
Then its friday, and im going back to belgium. Early as hell, but one way its super, because the sooner i meet my lovely boyfriend again!
Im feeling a bit sad that he couldnt join me to sweden, and not enough with that, he is gonna be all alone over christmas :( My poor honeybunny!
Well, thats it for now. Im gonna crawl into bed in a bit and watch some movie with my brother, and then sleep and hope for a headache-free christmas! Good night folks!
Down...
Dont know whats going on right now... Since after the doctors visit, i feel shit. Have a weird feeling in my body, and at the same time i just feel so down, deep down.
Have these redicelous thoughts in my head, and they make me sad. Crying sad.
Thanks to the fact that i dont know why or whats the reason for me feeling like this, there is easy becoming discussions. Hard discussions, and then anger. Not anger from my side, im just more down. Doesnt matter what the discussions are about, im just getting so sad, because im missunderstood. Im not saying that i feel bad, just to get away, but thats what seemed to be believed since i cant explain the problem.
Just want to be alone, but at the same time so close.. Dont know what to do right now with myself. Cant take another discussion right now, not today, not until i have gotten a bit clearity in my mind, but no one understands that, or sees that.
A hot, hot shower now, and then i dont know what to do.
What a shit day.
