Five Reasons I Don’t Like Clipping

1. The boiler suit. Oh yes, I look like a sex goddess when I’m clipping. Strong men weep.
2. The hair. Picking bits of hair off the inside of shirt collars, the edges of contact lenses, off waistbands. For weeks. Despite the boiler suit.
3. The clearing up afterwards. Hair sticks to a wet yard. I’ll still be finding it in August.
4. Cleaning the clippers. De-furring the filter. Oiling the blades. Good thing it’s only a couple of times a year.
5. Did I mention the hair?

And the top reason I do like clipping? The horses look great afterwards. For about five minutes. Until you have to do it all again.
