| T turning 3 - 2013-12-16 1:51 PM .... when your boyfriend gets you hydralics for your tractor for your birthday.
....when you buy a property with a tear down house and live in it because you loved the barn.
....when said property is right off the main drag but it has easy access for trailering out... and it has gravity irrigation water.
This! I bought a fixer upper house, off a fairly busy road because A) I liked the barn and B) it had a circle drive that was easy to get the trailers in and out. :) |

Your coworkers pick hay off your coat when you walk through the door!

When your husband asks you what you want for Christmas and you answer "Just go shopping at Tractor Supply" (true story ) |

| That's alright! Actually I took the front legs cut off of his his doe or buck (can't remember) and put them in my sleeves and pretended to clap my "hooves" and wave at him. Pretty sick, I know I am.

That's a good one, CS! It's true for me as well.
Here are a couple more:
- when you love the smell of horse farts.
- when you look at your girlfriend and nicker like a stud.
- when you walk in to see your first patient in the morning, and he tells you that there's alfalfa in your hair.
- when you go home for lunch and walk out to check on your horses....and run out of time to eat.
- when you hear there's a tornado warning, so you run out to the pasture to stand beside your horses (as if you can "fight off" the tornado)
-when you wake up in the middle of the night during a violent thunderstorm, and run out to the pasture half naked to bring your horse into the barn to protect him from lightning.
- When you bring a horse into the house to grab a quick sandwich before a ride....and he knows where the fridge (with apples) is located.
- when you grab a rasp from the barn to file callouses on your feet.
- when you prefer to watch a football game while sitting on your trophy saddle, while your dogs spread out on your leather sofas.

| Going to expand on your post a little bit Hotbear. When you intentiionally smell your horse farts to make sure they smell normal and there might not be anyhting amiss..
When you check their turds to make sure they are digesting their hay properly and look for possible perisites.
When you spend more on their supplements/boots/pads etc than you do your own clothes.
When your stalls are cleaner than your house.
You spend more time preparing your horse's meals than you do your spouses.
