Yay, spring!
So, it's finally not freezing outside. And of course, I had a damn headache all day, so I didn't do a damned thing, although my dad did drive out to visit, so that was kind of cool.
Haven't been posting, because I haven't been doing anything. I need a life, ugh. Work at the barn, try to work the horses (Ariesa is doing REALLY well, at least), and do the Hold 'em thing once a month. Other than that haven't been doing shit. I suck. Have tickets to go see Keane next month, though, which I am TOTALLY geeked about, since the last concert got cancelled. Glad that Tom is doing better.
Had an interesting ride on Ziggy Thursday which I am still sore from... rode him for two hours trying to get him to SLOW THE FUCK DOWN... he just wanted to trot like a bat out of hell, so we did lots of circle/figure eight/serpentine work. And lots of cantering. Nancy thinks he was a little high from all the grass, which is a strong possibility. I think he also just wanted to go to sleep. :) Oh well. The cantering was awesome.. the trot work kinda sucked, but what can ya do? He was perfect Friday, though.
Have been reading a bit lately.. Re-reading Dragonsdawn by Anne McCaffrey and also The Dark is Rising Sequence by Susan Cooper. (on the third book) I have some other new stuff sitting waiting to be read also.
Need to go to bed so I can get up and watch the lessons with Albert tomorrow morning. And then ride my own beasties. :) And trying to write an entry while watching South Park is virtually impossible... this show is fucked up.. lol
Here's a couple pics Mark took of Ariesa in the pasture on March 10th...
My pretty baby girl. Wanna take some more tomorrow.
