Hi Freda,
I am happy to help you with your video viewing problem. The way to view a video is to pick one you want to see and double click on it. It will then open and start playing automatically. That is all you do.

If the viideo has been added from You Tube, you do the same thing, but also have click on the "Play" triangle in the middle and it starts to play. Please let me know what happens on your end and I will be happy to help you in any way that I can.

p.s. I don't have a "Print" button associated with videos. Is that button on the site, or the top of your tool bar?

I double click, ......nothing!
I click on 'file', & the drop down window gives me a 'print'.

I don't understand what Blogs/Widgets are? Maybe this is all tooo saphisticated for me, I just like doing the odd photo, & riding my horse.

That's ok Freda - I didn't understand a thing before I began creating this community!
Ok, so first about the video. All of the stuff across the top of your own computer page, we will just leave for now, as that doesn't apply to the videos. Now, let's say you want to watch the Just a Horse video. That video is located on the home page of the site. Find that video and do a quick "double click". Now, if that doesn't work, please let me know what you are using to explore the Internet. Explorer 6? Firefox? We'll go from there.

Now to Blogs and widgets...
Blogs are little stories or opinions or observations that you would like to post on the site. You will find the blogs on the home page of Barnmice if you scroll down the centre column below the Olympic information. Click on some of them and read them and you will get a feel for what they are. I'll get to Widgets when you are finished exploring Blogs. Also, if you have a moment, in the Discussions column, I have posted a discussion called "Helpful Site Tips" Perhaps it will help you a bit. I am happy to help you, so feel free to ask about anything at all that confuses you :)

Hi Freda, one more thing. I gave you a bit of misinformation in that you don't actually have to double click (although it doesn't matter if you do), but your curser should turn into a pointing hand, rather than the regular arrow before you click . Pls. let me know how you are doing. It also occurs to me that perhaps you might try to view a video on You Tube to see if that works.

aww! im soo glad to hear shes well! i miss her sooo much! how are you? how is everyone?!

nope i dont ride my friends horses anymore..i ride my OWN horse!! i love him to peices..hes my boy:) his name is kaos

what ever happend to tai???...

Yes! The horse world is absolutely amazing! I don't know why I waited so long to follow my dream as a kid.
Cooper is such a good boy, very mellow, he does get a little excited at times, he's learning and so am I. My heart jumps in my throat sometimes, but I am trying to control that, I try to stay calm so he sees that its not bothering mommy LOL!
They are the absolute best for physical and emotional therapy. I take western lessons twice a week and the pain is reduced while I am riding.
Your dogs and horses are gorgeous! It's wonderful your dogs can go on trails with you. I can't take my dog with me, she doesn't listen. She can't come off of her leash, she had ACL surgery in 2005 and gets very sore when she runs. Sorry for the long post, nice to chat with other horse enthusiasts!

aww...haha well....kaos is currently in comox..im trying to see if i can get holger to trailer him down with me..because i already have a plcae to put him for about a week...and if you come..can you bring chance?!?! anyway talk to you later:) byee

Hi Freda, ACL is in the knee, anterior cruciate ligament, I think human athletes get the same thing too. Piper was attacked by another dog, hit in the knee and tore the ligament. About a year after the surgery her other knee was starting to bother her too, which is common when one goes. My husband hand walked her with a towel and she recovered from the second one without surgery. Although they say it returns to normal, I don't believe it, she gets very sore and limps real bad when she gets off the leash and runs around.
I want to trail ride with Cooper. My daughter wants to do english, jumping. So I have to train him both. I am loping now without holding the horn and I should try english too. I have a lower limb prosthesis and decided to do western as it is more comfortable for me. And I like western better LOL!!

hi freda!! you have to comedown for some of te summer!! kaos is doing well..how are you and the horses??? i miss ya lots! we need to go riding so i can show you all the things you tought me..and all the things i worked on and got alot better at! bye talk to you later -savannah

Great to hear from you Sav., I miss you all soooo very much. I'm still enjoying it here. Keeping myself busy. On the internet I found someone with fence panels for sale, so I bought 20 of them. It was quite a job getting them all put together. Now the horses won't be able to bend the wire trying to get the grass on the other side!!! I'm very glad to know that you & Kaos are getting along so fine. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to get along with your horse or dog. It's awesome to know that they trust you so much. I will be getting to the island this summer, but I don't know when. I have to find someone reliable to look after my animals. ,,,,see you this summer, Luv?Hugs, >>>Freda
