I have a had a few people ask me if I am actively looking for a new horse, and ask me if I am not happy with Bo. I can totally see where they may have gotten that idea-have you seen some of my recent posts???? lol!!!-so I figured I would clear up any doubts or uncertainty that anyone has out there. Uhmmmm...no...I am not really looking for a new horse, and I totally love Bo Bo.
I mean if a great deal presented itself, I would have to think about it, but for now, Bo Bo it is. 
My main concern with Bo, and the reason I will be getting a new horse in the next couple of years, is that he is 21. Now I know that 21 isn't ancient-and that Bo still has a lot of life left in him- it's just that our trails are rather cruel around here, and they poop out young horses, so how do you think they make my Bo Bo feel??
I have also only been able to ride three times during the past six weeks, and that is starting to really drive me bonkers.So, what do I do when I am not actively riding??? I obsess about horses, of course...lol!!!! And with thousands of them literally at my fingertips-gotta love the Internet!!-I just can't help myself.
Good thing it is only horses that I am addicted too, eh???? {insert wicked grin}

An addiction I share!
Bobo is 21! That's a youngster by Arabian standards! LOL!
My Nadia is 26, Annie is 16, and Scout is 13. That's one of the reasons I decided to breed Annie, so I'd have a young horse for the future in case something should happen to my little aging herd.
I know that plenty of horses go on and on in their 20s, but plenty don't.
Besides it's SO FUN to look at horses on the internet!
There are some screaming deals out there these days. But it's so stressful to actually shop!
He is such a wonderful horse your BO!!!Yea...I constantly think I want another horse...when i had Pantz for a year..she was almost the opposite of WA..it got me liking the differances...mostly calm, could pony anything, never a doubt with her. So yea...my eyes are always on the look...not that I could afford it though!
I hope you can ride soon Mellie...not being in the saddle these last 2 weeks has really affected my mental status..it serves as a "calming/balancing" agent to the whole of life for me!
I love BoBo, too. He's so cute! I always enjoy seeing photos of him.
I wish I could ride. I can'/t believe it's been almost 8 months since I've been in the saddle. I just try not to spend too much time thinking about it because I know I'm not ready yet mentally or physically. There are so many other things that are keeping me busy now, too.
