In Search of a Senior Thoroughbred

I am on a Facebook page and made a post trying to find a horse I owned. We were having a hard time getting the post to share, so I am putting it on my blog

This is a long shot. But I am hoping someone can help.
Back in 2010, My military family had to move to Alaska. Which meant I had to sell my horse. Ever since then I've been trying to find him. I sold him to a family and they had emailed me in 2011, saying they didn't want him anymore. Before I was able to work out details for a family friend to pick him up, they sold him. I know he might not be around anymore, I just want to know where he went and if he was happy. If he is still around, I would love to have him back. He was my best friend and it killed me to sell him.
I don't know his registered name, for it was changed before I got him. But his show name was Second Stride, we called him Strider. He's English trained, hunter/jumper.
He's a senior, black (bay during summer, he loved to be in the sun) thoroughbred gelding. Only marking is a small white star. He stands around 17-18 hh which was unusually tall for his breed. I sold him in the Fayetteville, NC area. The last time I heard of him, he was boarded at a small farm in Raeford, NC called Saddletree Farm (there are two in NC). The owner of the farm at the time was a German hunter/jumper named Melissa Carr. She came and rode him before the new owners bought him, to see how he was trained. She said he was perfect.

Final Thoughts: Great teen SciFi, terrible Editing

Zephyr and Reading Problems

Yesterday I was nervous and excited all day. Why? you ask? Well Simple, I was getting a new pet. Normal people get excited for a dog or a cat. But for me, I got a fish. Yup, that's correct. A fish.

After running to Wal-Mart, I was sorely disappointed. All the fish looked sick. Now I wanted a specific type of fish. Not a gold fish or a guppy. I wanted a Betta. I always loved betta fish. So, hubs and I went to petsmart and I found my fish!

Before the reveal, here is a short story of my first bettas.

Once upon a time I had 3 at once. 2 males and a female. I gave one male to my youngest brother (my oldest male betta). Then I kept the two reds. Shark and..... honestly, I never named the female. She was a little witch. One day, I came home from school to find that the female killed Shark, my gorgeous red male. I was so upset.

To be frank, I have no clue what happened to the female.

New Books and Questions

As of late I had a hard time sticking to Jane Eyre. I have too many questions about the publishing style, that I can't seem to get far. That and I was mostly reading it until I got a new book in.
Oh.... I will torture you on this one. I can't tell you the title. I'm reading this for a friend, which I a, glad she's letting me give this a try.

I am so excited!!!! I haven't gotten as far as I'd want to be. Which sucks. Life is starting to get in my way.

But on the brighter side of things, I got a book I preordered....... FINALLY!!!!!

Audible: My First Experience

To in today's post I am talking about Audible.

Now I have heard of Audible before, an online audiobook source. However, I almost didn't want to do it.
First I looked at the prices. The first month was Free and following months was 14.99 p/m. Okay, that sounds good. Then I looked at the prices of the audiobooks alone. Example:

It's Been A While

I want to start with apologizing to my readers. A lot has been going on. First lets start with what this month is to me.
June is Scoliosis Awareness Month.

As a Scoliosis patient, I'm excited to here that this even exists. Scoliosis is common, but not as much. Just recently am I learning more about my condition. I even learned that there is a better treatment then what I did as a teen. The only problem?
The closest clinic is in a different state and I can't afford the treatment, even with insurance. :(


This morning I had finished listening to my first book, via Audible. I was a little weary at first on getting an Audible account. I saw it as way to expensive. Then I thought about it. I never have time to read much anymore, so why not try audiobooks. So I did. I had listened to The Ending by Lindey Pouge and Lindsey Fairleigh.
I had downloaded the second book (which I won in a contest) Into The Fire, this morning. I will be listening to it through out the day.

Meet Author Jenetta Penner

I have a wonderful treat for you all!!!

An interview with Jenetta Penner, author of Configured! So come on in, grab a cup of coffee and meet Jenetta!

I had the wonderful opportunity to read Configured before it's release in 2016. I fell in love with it! You can read my review HERE. Now I am waiting on Immersed, which sounds a-mazing. Jenetta is the second author to do this review. I had asked if she could share with us a teaser, however, Immersed is still in it's editing stage and she said she would love too once that is done. So we all have to wait in anticipation! *screams with excitement*
