Dang! $175 a month?
Room, board, vet bills, mucking and training all for $175 a month?
I boarded horses in 1968, got a stall, a paddock & fed alfalfa 2X a day.
That was it. all for $150 a month, in 1968 !!!!!!!
No training, no vet services..I had to muck or it didn't get done.
You are far too kind to the guy, vacate him!
I feel that $175 is fair concidering that he pays for his own feed, brought in his own sand, and built his own shelter. My sister has her horse here as well, but she pays WAY more than $175 just in all the work she does around here to help me out. If I was supplying all the feed, and shelter out of my own pocket. Trust me. Board would be at the very minimum $250+ extras.
I think the reason this situation raises my BP so much is because I am not supposed to be doing EVERYTHING myself. My Dr. agrees that me keeping my two clients is fine, but she wants me to take it easy at home. IE... No heavy lifting, no riding, no over exertion, things like that. Im also supposed to watch my BP because of my weakened heart.
Oh forgot to tell you. I was sent to a cardiologist yesterday. Ill find out how the echocardiogram turned out on November 9th. I should also find out what sex the little one will be the same day! Only 4 more weeks!
The reason for the Echocardiogram is that during my pregnancy with DD, I had massive amounts of fluid on my heart, and my heart enlarged by quite a bit. therefor I have a weaker heart, and am more apt to have heart issues. Plus Ive been having some major palpetations that last 10-15 minutes each session. and this has been happening 2-4 times a day. Now it is normal to have palpetations, but not for longer than 30 seconds or so... So they are watching me carefully to catch any problems early.
