*Please read* So anyone who follows me on Instagram will know that this video really hasn't gone to plan. Basically I had really good intentions of this being an amazing, to the point the video and it just hasn't worked out like that. Life got in the way a bit and I just wasn't in the right headspace for filming and editing it as it takes so long and a lot of energy. After I exported it last night I realised how many things I have missed out so please forgive me for that. I toyed with the idea of not posting it at all but it's taken me a long time to get it to here so I thought I may as well. Let me know what you guys think, if it is really awful I can delete it and try again another time for you. Anyway, sorry about the rant, I hope it isn't as bad as I think it is!

@ksanurse 4 жыл бұрын

I really enjoyed that, it was nice to see how you got into horses. I would say to anyone out there dreaming the same of life buying cheap horses it’s worthwhile remembering the actual cost of the animal might be cheaper but all the care/maintenance/equipment/stabling/tuition/vet bills/ etc is the cost killer. I had three horses when dinosaurs roamed the earth and it was expensive even with my own horse property. Just keep it in mind. Bearing this though the bond you have with MUm in participating in your dream is priceless. The horsey life has to have been best investment your parents ever made.

Some of these horses i'd never be selling, they look incredible! Juggling uni and horses is so difficult though! I was lucky to study at home and keep my horse and riding up at the same time! I have to say that now working full time is just as tricky with having horses and more so in winter time but it's part of me and I don't think my work ethic would be as high if I didn't have that down time!

I'm retired now and no longer able to ride because of health issues. I still have some ponies, donkeys, and minis as well as several pet pigs. I've never been able to sell the animals. Too much by way of worries in doing that. Watching your adventures though with your Mummy is so nice. Makes me feel young again! You seem like a very girl and your Mom is an angel.
