Solid Busy Weekend
For a non-event weekend, I am beat this morning. Too little sleep, so much going on.
Friday, set up for the Trail Trials (horse event with another group that I am the organizer for)
6 hours of mowing hay
Back to the farm for more set-up in the dark.
Saturday, up at 4:45 for more set up. Trail Trials were a hit! Leif rode my horse and came in 5th in her category. I commend her for taking the advanced class on when she knew the horse didn't know how to sidepass.
Home at 3:45, to shower, change, realize I don't own any jeans that aren't grease covered.
Frantic shopping, and changing in the car on the way to Dave and Karyn's. Made it just in time to jump in the party wagon (Miranda's Van) and head off to party for the night with Anita! Dinner was Mexican, (where the bra adjusting was...ummm...interesting) then off to my fav part of the night, the country bar, which I'm pretty sure horrified most of the group, but Karyn, Miranda and I were right at home. I have ridden a bull a few times before, so I was surprised when I actually got bored. Maybe I should have told them to ramp it up, but then I thought they might really let me have it, so finally I just let go. Freaky thing....I couldn't fall off. My head said jump, my butt and legs said stick! Finally I gave up the jump off gracefully idea, and rolled backwards to flop onto the mat. LOL most premium fun! Miranda rocked the bull as well. Off to the next stop on the road to Anita's wild night. Where I pretty much held down the corner seat on the booth for a couple hours. I was getting way too pooped to party. Been there done that before, but its never less debaucherous to me none the less. :) Looked like everyone was having a good time from where I was sitting, and I have to agree with others that the monkey bars using girls were impressive. Back to D & K's where I helped put K to bed, then drove my sober self home at 2am.
Sunday, Back to the farm at 10am to let volunteers from the day before come ride, while I took down a lot of the course from the 4-wheeler. Lane was a great little helper. Short potluck, more clean-up.
Back to being a farmer and working in the hay field for a couple hours.
Crashed on the couch while Craig went and got Chinese, kids to bed, us to couch again for very sleepy movie night. 2012, it was okay, action packed, I called the driving the car out the back of the plane as soon as I saw all the cars in there. Too bed much too late for my weekend weary self.
Next weekend, I plan to RELAX at coronation. I have no duties other than Court and I plan to do not much else. I'm going to keep looking for Whipped Cream Vodka for my Creamsickle jello shots...yum!
