Movies and Things

I just spent the past 2 hours wishlisting training books on horses and the sort.. been tearing out articles from Horse Illustrated zines that were left over from last year on what was left of my subscription.. I scoured amazon.com/.ca for dvds or vhs tapes detailing some sort of training etc.. and nothing could be found.. I guess I need to look in the back of HI for some stuff as well.. maybe there will be a website for instructional videos in some format. I have a few.. but they’re more focused on hunter/jumper. I’m looking for something focused more on centered riding, overcoming problems, and all that horsewhispering type stuff*L* Being intune with the monster, using body language, ground work, manners, that sort of thing. Flame needs a LOT of that.. and well I need to learn some new tricks of the trade.

ok.. I think i have it all sorted

mostly. I did some tweaking and fussing with font sizes and the sort.. I tried to get blogamp back up and running, but it was being not good.. so I said “%$%$@&$&$%&@IT!”.. you people don’t need to know what I’m listening to anyways.. If it’s THAT good, I’ll just blog about it.

The past few days have been spent discussing housing. We’re looking.. and wow.. it hurts my head. It’s also quite depressing. The housing here is just so rediculously over priced. Houses that should cost $150-170K with the trimmings cost over $200K. Yes, it’s Canadian, but before you people fire your mouths off about currency conversion (I’m pretty friggin sick of that joke btw), TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS is still just that. We don’t live on US currency so go suck a nut and don’t even bother wasting your time on that line. The immigration site says the average housing cost is approximately $139, 000.. I seriously want to know what crack they’ve been smoking. You can’t even get a hovel in the country for that, much less anything near the city.
