Going away...

Well, today, I'm doing laundry. I've gotta get ready to go. I'm heading to some friend's house this weekend. I'll be back Wednesday. I can't wait. I'm gonna have so much fun.

There's a chance that I might get to get back into riding(only once a month, but it's better than nothing). I hope it works out. I've been praying that it might work out. Can anyone tell I'm slightly obsessed with horses? Hmm....I wonder. It just that I get so excited over going to see horses, whether I know them or not, and whether I know it's a one time thing or a once a day thing. I never know if it's gonna be the last time I ever get to see a horse! But I'm still excited. Not excited, ecstatic.
I'm boring everyone...I'll write next week.

Yesterday..and Friday

After visiting what seems like the millionth church yesterday morning, We came home and rested for a little while. Then, we headed out the door. We decided to go look at my Grandmother's house about two years after we sold it. I miss grandma and her house so much. We used to go to Grandma's house after church a lot. Especially on Mother's day or grandparents day. We drove the hour it took to get there and took about five minutes to look. The people who moved there had horses. It looked like they were keeping it up pretty well. It was beautiful, though. It still reminded me of visiting grandma, so they didn't make too many changes. Then we went to eat in Farmsville. Guess what? We got gas for $3.60 a gallon! It was quite amazing.
On Friday, I got to go to my riding teacher's house to ride. She gave me a free ride in exchange for helping her around the farm. It was one of the best rides I'd ever had. I rode Rocky and it was the first time I'd been allowed to be on my own. It was really cool. I took him over some jumps and we both loved it. He was being an angel, except for the fact he refused to get his bridle on and was being a brat about getting his cinch tightened. I told him I deserved him. Sadly, he's being leased out to someone else. He will still be on the property and everything, so I might get to see him again. Don't get me wrong, he's gonna have an awesome leasee, but I can't help wishing it was me. Anyways, So I had an awesome ride and we went on a trail ride after that! I am very thankful to my riding teacher for letting me have that ride. My riding teacher is awesome!

For those of you who love horses...

The best smell in the entire world is horse. Horse sweat, horse feed, horse hair, horse manure(think I'm nuts if ya want ta), fresh hay, anything to do with horses. For those of you who don't like horses, you've missed out. That's your problem, not mine. Just don't try to change my mind, 'cause it won't work. I got to help my former riding teacher yesterday at her farm. I led Sassy around. A buckskin quarter/appaloosa mare. She's my second favorite of my riding teacher's horses. I didn't get to ride, but I got lots of pictures(check them out here). My teacher wants to give me free ride as a thank you since I don't get to ride much. Any of those who like horses would get it. Anyway, I had a cool day yesterday.
