Only horse people... ...believe in the 11th Commandment: Inside leg to outside rein. ...know that all topical medications come in either indelible blue or neon yellow. ...think nothing of eating a sandwich after mucking out stables. ...know why a thermometer has a yard of yarn attached to one end of it. ...are banned from Laundromats. ...can magically lower their voices five octaves to bellow at a pawing horse. ...have a language all their own ("If he pops his shoulder, I have to close that hand and keep pushing with my seat in case he sucks back".) ...will end relationships over their hobby. ...cluck to their cars to help them up hills. ...insure their horses for more than their cars. ...will give you 20 names and reasons for that bump on your horse. ...know more about their horse's nutrition than their own. ...have neatsfoot oil stains on the carpet right next to the TV. ...have a vocabulary that can make a sailor blush. ...have less wardrobe than their horse. ...engage in a hobby that is more work than their day job. ...know that mucking stalls is better then Zoloft any day.

So true!! WHOA has completely replaced STOP in my vocabulary and for the life of me I can't remember to take my vitatims but I never forget my horses suppliments/ medications. We are a strange breed aren't we???

Oh my! So true!!! My mom is alway's asking me if I'll go shopping with her to which I reply "Nope, can't I spent all my $$ on the horses!" It's funny how I won't pay more than $10 for a pair of jeans or never buy myself new shoes but the horses....that's a whole different story!!! I do have a few lines to add to the above... Only Horse people have a 9 year old who is saving her money up to have her mare's teeth floated ;D Only horse people are more anal about cleaning their horsie bedrooms than their own! Only horse people would smell the rank smell of beet pulp soaking in their kitchens! Only horse people would say that horsie poop doesn't 'smell that bad'.... Only horse people would spend more time on their horses hair than their own!!!
Get excited when a fresh load of green hay is delivered (This is better than S#*)
