BU tno idea how to compose my thoughts in a comprehensive fashion.
-3 weeks till I find out if I kicked kancer in the kunt. (spelling intentional)
-Stomach is on "monitoring" status but nothing major found there at this time
Work.
Ugh.
A constant state of flux there. Overall I am not happy there. But there are good times and bad. I LOVE the $. I hate the drama and bullshit. I hate that I am busting my ass and exceeding the expectations but my co-worker seems to be barely breathing to work, isn't producing barely ANY results and yet the boss seems content with that. WTF? You have been there two months buddy! Time to start paying your own salary! But he's 45 and I'm only 31 so I cant possibly have anything to say of value. I could add a whole page of examples here but it just pisses me off.
I DO have an interview on Friday with a HUGE insurance company I have been wanting to get into and have been trying for the better part of 6 months. Damn these things take along time. I will take a pay cut at the beginning but get 11 stat days and 3 weeks vacation from year 1 so its not so bad, and the long term benefits are amazing.
Happy times.
A couple of months ago, after much thought, I let one of the kids who works at the barn get on Matteez. I knew I was going to be away alot and she thrives on consistent work. For those non-horsey people...she is NOT an easy ride. Its like the difference between driving a Neon and a Formula 1 car. My instincts were bang on and they got along really well. A couple of weeks later she got her own horse and I thought it was the end of her riding Matteez for me when I went away. 1 week later the mare was dead lame and has been for the last 3 months. Vet, chiro and her coach cannot agree on what the issue is nor how to treat or how long. Natalie keeps telling me the thing that has helped the most was that she still gets to ride my mare. We discussed things, and I have offered to let her take Matteez to shows this year. This totally works in my favor as I HATE having people watch me ride,especially because M. is so difficult. We all win in this situation, Natalie Matteez and myself.
To my friends who live so far away.
I want to see you. I have this weight boring down on me that makes me feel pressured to see you soon and I can't explain it. I need to find ways to make this work, yet I need to work to make it happen.
Ben & Rachel. Lets make time to meet up in Montreal away from the show.
Liam, Summer and Mia. I wish I had had some time to myself when I was in FL but 40 hrs and stuck with my boss didn't allow for that.
Anyone want to come north?
