Riding gear

Firstly, I'm glad that riding gear is like high fashion nowadays, as I have always loved leather riding boots and riding pants.

1st wish


Polo Boot / TOAST
for everyday usage



2nd wish


 Polo riding boots/Könings
for riding!

Maybe it doesn't make sense to have 2 pair of boots what looks exactly the same, but for riding the boot needs to be comfy enough and second, I dont want to use the same boots at the stables and then at evenings (smelly, eek!)

I don't know if tomorrow's riding plans will go good, still no bus connect found to the stable. Why I just cant find the job.. and get car.. and everything would be hundred times more easy.

I like.. Music




I found out from Spotify, that new album of Norah Jones is available.
My favourite song from that album is Chasing Pirates .


This music fits good for the evenings with candles, warm drink and knitting. I'm making a wool scarf for myself.
Rosy pink scarf and it might have buttons for closing.


 

It's almost same colour than the pink flower I saw one weekend in park/Orange

I Like.. photos




I Like much of the first photo (of us), I just love it.

I have been staying at home few days, wednesday was holidays from school and I got weird feeling already on tuesday evening, when I started to cough again. So now I'm most likely having some infection in my throat so I need to take it easy for a while. And it means that I needed to cancel my horsey saturday..

Any ideas what could do when sick? I love reading blogs, magazines and drink tea under blanket, listening music. I know I need to read for the coming tests, I have next week grammare test and I am missing so many rules from the grammare. It is so hard to understand..

I found new music to listen, Alexi Murdoch,Amos Lee and Ray LaMontagne (from aurajoon's blog).
I like specially Ray LaMontagne's music, easy to listen and goes well behind while writing and reading blogs.

My dream might come true


I just bought a riding helmet!

Last time when I visited Finland, I did put all my 3 riding helmets to the trash bin, as all were broken already. I still have rest of the gear (pants,boots, jackets, etc) in Finland and I will bring these to Avignon after christmas. I also bought pair of riding gloves.

And the reason is..

I got finally one offer to ride a gentle horse not near from us, without I need to pay. It's just helping the owner as they dont have time and lacking motivation. I'm so excited! Probably we will visit there next saturday to test the horse. I really hope it's calm and nice one, as I wont ride ever again young ones, not trained ones etc. Because of the old accident. But still, I love these animals and I want to continue :) Thumbs up for this!

end of the holidays

Our neighbourhood at the old stone map,



And the reality. I love this place.


For the holidays, I didn't do anything. Just did sit on the sofa and got even more lazy :)

We will spend this sunday again in Orange, hopefully we can have a walk in nature there. And today we will have car for 10days so we have possibility to go walk in the forests and I would like to collect some châtaignes.




forest pics are from 2008
