Some Tarp Games

B and I played with the tarp today. He came into me a lot faster than yesterday but was still a little on the reactive side. Yes, it was windy BUT I can't remember the last time this horse threw himself away from me when I went to touch his face. It was pretty disheartening... But we worked through it. Then I sent him back and forth over the tarp. He looked at it like he had never seen it before. Brat.

"All lies I tell you! I have NEVER seen this thing in my life!" **SNORT** **PAW**
"Dude... Just go over the damn tarp."
"NOOOOOOOO!!!!" *step step leap* "Oh wait... I remember." *prances over tarp continuously*

So then we dragged it around the arena afterwards... Thinking of strapping it to his saddle tomorrow, but most of the barn dwellers would think that was cruel... Good thing I have my own crew.

Bruising on my ass? Still terrible... Getting worse... New one appeared this AM. So what does my friend at work do? SLAP ME RIGHT ON THE BUTT!!! *cries* My knees almost buckled to be honest but I squeaked out an "I'm fine..."

That's my story for today...

Hey its not cruel unless you tie it over her head or something crazy... I should totally get my pony around one. She needs to not be scared of all the silly things.
