A moment of appreciation for the person that keeps this whole thing going. If you’ve ever had a horse in training with us you know that if not for Shania I would probably never have gotten this business off the ground. When you pay, you pay Shania, when you fill out forms those are forms Shania created, when you see braided manes/tails, clean buckets and stalls it’s ALL Shania.
Every day as I’m training she is diligently doing all of the grunt work so that we can function efficiently. This woman has a DR. In front of her name and she has no shame about putting in her sweat equity daily.
Lately, it’s been so busy. She thought after she graduated she would finally get to enjoy some down time but that unfortunately just hasn’t been the case. When we haven’t been training horses we’ve been setting up our new barn or building fence around our new arena. She’s been with me every step of the way and there’s been relatively no days off for a little over a month. It’s been hot, it has sucked and it’s been non-stop from daylight to dark. Yet, here she is everyday with a smile on her face and something positive to say.
The good Lord blessed me immensely, I can’t explain why but I’m just grateful to have her.
If you’re thinking about getting into this business you need to carefully consider who it is you spend the rest of your life with because that part matters more than anything. I’m glad that I get to do this with my best friend.
