The great list...

... of things I am looking for in a horse. I'm afraid I'm getting a tad picky.
- $2,500, or less
- Preferably a Thoroughbred or some kind of Warmblood, so long as I can find one fast enough for eventing.
- Not a Quarter Horse
- An Appaloosa Sporthorse would be nice, if I can find one
- Not an idiot
- Trained would be nice. I really dislike training horses. They're such nitwits before they're trained.
- Not 2
- Not 24
- 5 would be a really, really good age
- Tall. I will die if I have to ride anything under 16 hands, I know it. 16.3 is my happy height. Even though I look like a flea.
Am I really too picky? I've been looking for a horse that fits this criteria for months, and still nothing. Le sigh.

Christmas List

BAH.
I just wrote this, and it deleted it all. Sigh. Oh well.
Christmas list! Not that I'll get anything on it, but I can wish, right? ;)

LOVE. Love. Love. Love.  Dubarrys are amazing. "Hey mum! They're just $455!" "Maybe when you're 69." "But when I'm 69, you'll be... Hey!"
Ah well. I can stare at them. Just out of curiosity, anyone know the calf diameter on these? I have stick calves (12 inches, I believe?) and I'm trying to find a good country boot- that's not going to swallow me.

^A Tipperary body protector. This would be my first! (I know- XC without a protector... Shocking, no?) Black, please! With a kelly/hunter green stripe! Thank you!

 
^A CO skullcap. Lose the sparkles. Make it hunter green/black. Gorgeous! :-)


^Hey ma? Can I have a pony? He's pretty. Black. He's not too big either - 17.1. Just 2 inches taller than Spirit! What's his name? Ahhh... Moorlands Totilas?
:-)
