Blanket Hoarder

Hello, my name is Jan. I am a blanket whore.

So I got an email this morning that Smart Pak Ultimate Turnout Blankets are 30% off. So what do I do? I called and asked them to take another 10% off the medium turnout I bought last Friday (they did). And then I decided to order the lightweight and heavy blankets. And I ordered the medium weight hood last week too, so I will have the entire line (minus the no fill hood) for $501. BAM. I call that a good deal. Especially since every item has a 10 Year Indestructible Guarantee. It rips, I send it back for a brand new one.

This led me to consider the sheer number of blankets I already own. A co-worked just called me the "crazy cat lady of horse blankets".

Mikey and his original (I don't know the brand) medium weight blanket that my parents bought 10 years ago.

 Then there's the unpictured:

• Tuff Rider turnout sheet
• Random brand turnout sheet that I just got for free because it's ripped and I'll fix it myself

 Then we have the "non turnout" blankets:

 And the horse isn't the only one with a blanket.

Nickels is sickly and cold all the time, so when I was in Mikey Surgery hell, mom and I found this XS dog blanket for $10 when we did some tack shopping therapy.

And in the last week I bought another hood and 3 more blankets.

That means I own 3 hoods and 14 different blankets (not counting the cat's). So umm, I think I'll be selling some of them! Some people collect saddle pads or bridles or other tack. I collect blankets.
