Hello everyone!!

First off, I am a slacker – I have not posted as often as I said I would, with nothing for an excuse besides school and general laziness. But, what I had meant to post about a week ago was the news that I was buying my friend and her sister’s Breyer collections – about 150 models.

I managed to find about 52 of them to keep, some of them ones I had already sold from my own collection.



Yeah.

Anyways, my shelves are now full – but I must say, that wall of my room looks much more inviting with 135 Breyer models on it :D

If you couldn’t tell in that picture, we got a dusting of snow this morning. Nothing photographing, but enough to make is pretty dang cold out there. The cow was pretty frisky this morning too :D



While we’re still thinking of the goings-on around here, I thought I’d show you these pictures:





(My brother took these three photos; he’s turning into a great photographer!)

Wondering what the heck is going on with the tripod? Well, glad I piqued your interest – but you’ll have to wait until we finish our project before I tell you :D



Oh, and just to prove that I’m not perfect – I put my phone through an entire washing machine cycle yesterday morning…24 hours later, it’s almost working right, but the LCD touch display still looks like it has a little water in it :/ Go figure. :P



Well, that’s all for now – no new tack or model horse news….oh, except that I have two new models on the way :D I’ll post photos as soon as they get here!

Not M.H.R.....

This week's post will be a music review.

Last night a friend of mine had me listen to Lucy,by Skillet, a Christian heavy rock-style band. I love their music (I had to buy their latest album this morning!) and this song is no exception.

Listen to it first here, on YouTube:

Now you're ready for the review.

I had an idea of what John Cooper, the lead singer/songwriter, was trying to get across with the lyrics, and trust me, I knew it was a sad song - but I really had no idea what it was about. So, I searched the song in Google and got this Wikipedia page...hopefully it's trustworthy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_(Skillet_song)

So, anyways...a very touching song, whether you're a Christian, Muslim or Atheist. ;)

And sorry it's not Model Horse Related....there's just not much horsey stuff goin' on over here right now....till tomorrow ;)
