Welcome and Congratulations to Anne Shrago of Apex, North Carolina, who has graduated from Iyuptala University and has become a PonyBoy Regaional Advisor. Visit Anne Shrago's webpage at Iyuptala University.

Anne,

Wow, Everything here on the message board looks just like I thot it would when i found out you were taking the Iyuptala Courses. Such big congratulations for you.

And you know, I treasure you "singing" THE song even more now.

I hope you celebrate BIG TIME.

I mean the kind of celebration using carrots, and apples.

Nancy

Good for you Anne!! Things will all fall into place for you , it just takes the time it takes!!! Continued success for the future!

Congrats Anne (You are ambitious!!) I didn't realize you so so close to completing. I'm happy for you!

Thanks, Dreamer!



LOL



well...I'll have to do it when I get back, I guess. I am leaving for Nashville, TN tomorrow morning...



oh...hmmm...weird visuals come to mind - OH, you mean D&D celebrate! I guess my little family will have to wait until I get back too!

Maybe I'll have internet access, or , if I do, maybe I'll be too busy at blues clubs, Grand Ole Opry, etc..

Dreamer II

(haha)

Thanks, Tracey

Things do continue to fall into place.

1 step forward, 3 steps back - haha - we say that alot in my dressage lessons! and laugh about it. But really, it is true of life in general. We all have obstacles to overcome and discover our rightful paths. We just have to be open to it...

yes, sully...I am "one of those" types haha

Hi Anne! Congratulations!

Way to go Anne!

Lucky's looking forward to his massage in Missouri.

Wow, the DREAM herd. ??? that sounds cool.

ONLY Please, let's keep letting some DREAMS come true ok???

Like yours, then MINE!!!!!! MY TURN Now.
HA....

Remember that song, Dreamweaver??? By the time of the NC HTP course, wow, you will be sooooo on your way. amazing.

Have fun in Nashville.
I got lost in that area once. okay, maybe a couple of times.


Nancy

Thanks Tom and Laura - okay, Lucky will get lucky. yeah, Nancy...your turn now! I like that - The Dream Herd - yes, I remember that song! So...you lived in Nashville too? So you have lived everywhere and never sleep!

wow Anne, Congrats

Congrats!!!!! Lets see, you might have a few minutes on the way down to the Pony thing, when you visit Kek, hmmmmmmm massage.

You know, Sully is right, I know I couldn't keep up with ya! How do you manage to do 10 things at once? LOL

TAT

Anne,
I never lived there in Nashville, I had a friend on the west side of nashville in the country on an arab horse farm who did repatriation advocacy (preserving native burial sites) . I used to try to go there from NC on sundays for meetings , and then drive back really LATE. It was there I learned I can drive through the smoky mountains better in the dark than in the light, well cuz, all i can see is the stars when I look out which means I dont' FREAK out. the stars were just too beautiful from WAY UP

I would go around nashville on a beltway. always lots of construction and lots of traffic going, pretty smooth ride coming back. but see you will be going INTO Nashville. I always went via I40. and then began getting lost as soon as i turned off it. you have a better chance of getting to where you are going. aLL the signs point to nashville.

who said I don't sleep??? zzzz

Nancy

Congratulations to you, Anne!

thanks Brenda - you know this is really your place

TAT - a few minutes? I don't think kek would like that very much - it is about an hour to hour and a half....LOL

Funny - yesterday I was on Denmark's second side when the farrier came - he was into it - he LOVES a massage - and he was NOT HAPPY about the interruption!

I have horsies waiting for me upon my return, like as soon as possible when I return from TN the owners requested It's all good.

Nancy - I was kiddin ya about Nashville! You do get around though! lol ummmm I love the Smokies!

trust me - I have a LOT of things to do and all these trips are gonna stop here soon!!!

Thanks, Kimberly!

Best wishes,

chriss

Have a great time in Nashville and I am looking forward to hear from you

Congratulations Anne!
This sure is a wonderful opportunity isn't it.

Congratulations Anne,
I know that it is a long journey, but so much fun and well worth it. Good luck in all that you do and will do for our 4 legged friends in the future

Congratulations Anne!

Congrats Anne!!! That is so awesome for you!!! WOO HOO!!! Wish you lived closer to Missouri!!!! I am hoping that one of these days - I will be able to do some of those courses One step at a time Hugs to you - you are certainly an inspiration!!!

Way to go Anne. I did not realize you were so close to finishing. Congratulations! I agree with Nancy...celebrate your success Patti

Congrats Anne,
Are Denmark and Dude suitably impressed with your new title?

Maybe now they'll take you seriously. ( NOT)

Bruce

KingD$ - Lacy, my friend! Hey, I am flying into St Louis June 12 and heading to Raymondville - where abouts do you live?
tonto - we shall be in touch
BYC - I don't know, I took off to Nashville; I'll see what they think when I get home today!
indianrose - I look forward to your visit!
renee - I hope so! Their happiness = my happiness

well, I leave Nashville today...I think I may have caught a little cold...it hurts to swallow :-(

I can tell y'all that my main interests are:

- nutrition
- equine law
- horse-human relationships
- massage therapy

I also look forward to questions that will help both (questioner and answeree - is that good english?) of us to learn more. In other words, y'all are a BIG part of my education. The best knowledge comes from our listening to each other. And our horses

I hope to be able to work one-on-one with horses and their humans regionally, preferably face-to-face if within driving distance but I am awaiting some information from TPB re: this aspect...but this is my desire...nothing beats being in person and in each other's energy

Congratulations Anne!!!! THis is really a wonderful thing!!!

Patti and Lucky

thanks for your friendship anne
and get well soon!

So while in nashville, you also got some "singing in"??? hence the "slightly sore throat"?

OH Dude and Dennie ARE quyite impressed. they sent me emails last nite. lol Dennie's was very fancy while Dude's was, umm... "right ON, ANNE".

Nancy

OH dennie ordered a carrot cake for you, but Dude ordered PIZZA!!!!!!!!

Rest up. Wow. You are at the "starting gate" now. She's OFF!!!!!

Nancy

Thanks Patti (and Lucky!)

nooooo.....right now I have laryngitis, can't even talk. I have been sick all day, meds and bed and sleeping. worthless. I am a sicko. I hope tomorrow is better.



sounds like you know my boyz haha



so...where is the cake and pizza? I have not eaten all day, been out of it...



yeah ... like that video clip of that TB race where the Mafia's horse is WAAAYYYY back there doing a passage

Who was it anyway that made the rule the winner is always the first horse to cross the finish line??? I think a dance here and there would rack up some extra points.
Hope you rest and recharge this evening. Piaffing through dreams if a cool way to "travel".
Nancy

Congrats, Anne! That's awesome! I love it! And thanks for the book recommendations.
I've been huddled up over them for weeks (that's why I've been out of touch lately) and thinking about all the implications of her journey thus far. Keep moving forward...and breathe

Hi Anne...........I so wish I could make it to Raymondville. I actually live in Hallsville. It's about 15 miles north of Columbia. A few hours away from where you will be. I'm so sad that I can't be there . Maybe the one in October - but now looking at the payroll schedules - don't think I will be able to make that one either. I am the only one to do payroll - and since it is the University I have tight deadlines to make. UGH!!! I'm hoping that by then - someone else can help me out some.............have fun - and if next week is anything like this past weekend and this coming week - it's gonna be hot and humid. Take care!!!! Hugs to you!!!!

Hi Y'all,

Well...once I have the privs to add topics in this forum, I'll be adding some topics, but until then...this is all I have I hope the technical problem gets solved quickly!

I look forward to the MO trip in June with Pony!

Congrats again Anne! I have a question for you, & I am sure some of the others are probably wondering too. Besides getting a certificate for completeing each course, do you get one for passing Pony's final also?

Hi Tom - yes, soon a completion certificate, an agreement and some other materials will arrive in my mailbox - The program is still in early stages of organization (being a new program) - there will be some additional training with Pony per my conversations with him this week in MO.

I heard Dude and Denmark hacked into the site to keep you from spilling the beans about them and giving away all the things they taught you Anne.

Bruce
BYC

HAHA so....that is why they were acting all cute yesterday

update: Tech Service for Invision Gallery needs to be contacted, so this should get fixed hopefully before the month of July is over. Just FYI. No biggie. mihunka said I could start topics elsewhere and then move them under this forum. But I may just wait...
