I can't believe it's almost Thursday. Last Sunday Marco, his brother Jack and his wife Vanessa and I went to Kamas house to ride the horses. Kama recently got out of the hospital, she was in there for removing one of her kidneys. So now she is out of comission on riding her horses so I told her that Marco and I will do it and if possible some of his family. She was quite happy for that knowing that her horses will get exercise. So the four of us went last Sunday and took all four horses out. They were all good horses and we went on a atleast 2 hour ride. We even stopped at Circle K for drinks, funny enough the horses wanted what we were drinking. So halfway on our way home Feo, the horse that I was riding started acting up. He started getting a cocky attitude with me. If you've been riding horses very long then you can easily tell their moods. Well, he started putting his head down like he was gonna charge at something and started side gaiting. That was funny riding a horse sideways. So then he wanted to run and I let him run and get it out of his system, I understand he hasn't been out for three weeks. After a few minutes of running with him I made him walk but he didn't want to, he seemed anxious to run home and horses usually do that when they know they are going home. So I made him do circles but he resisted, he became more antsy. So I ran him again and everyone else was watching while I try to get this horse under control. Since Kama wasn't with us Feo was testing me to see what he can get away with so after getting him under control Marco told me that we needed to go up a small hill to go back home. We started going and Feo Crow Hopped and I ended up falling off him, mind you I was riding on a bareback pad not a saddle. I usually ride on a bareback pad and not a saddle because I'm use to it and never had a problem up until now. So luckily I fell on soft dirt and when I fell off I was trying to make sure I got out of Feo's way so he won't trample me, I managed and got right back up. I banged my knee and arm but no biggie. Feo ending up running away and I tried to catch him but he ran further so I stopped chasing him and hoped he would come back to us. He did and I caught him. When Feo ran from me, Storm the horse Jack was riding wanted to join Feo in on the fun and started to get somewhat antsy and made Jack jump off him but Jack managed to calm him down. So yeah, I got back on Feo and he started to get antsy again so I got back off and walked him home. We were pretty much almost home so it was cool. I knew he was testing me and well he won. I guess next time I have to be more firm with him. All in all it was fun. That very night though my leg that got banged up hurt pretty bad where I was limping but I still managed to get around. It feels a lot better now.
Today I finally got my own website going. I was on a 14 day trial with Site Skins. I shopped around for other website hosting but Site Skins won my business and they are cheap. For $7.54 a month I get 5 pages, I can add music and pictures. That's all I really need for my airbrush tanning website. I wanted to pay them all up front for the whole year but they take out that small amount from my bank every month. I also purchased a domain name for $9.95 a year, I'm excited. So now I have my own website. www.paradiseairbrushtanning.com It's pretty much done but I'm tweaking it here and there, it's fun.
Ok, time for bed.
