Sadly No riding today.


Well...me typing right now means I did not die today. There were really bad thunderstorms so we couldn't go out on the trail. I did meet the horse I would have ridden though. His name is Red. He doesn't like ANYONE near his stall but once he's outside of it he's fine. Linnea said that he's really fun to ride. Also my trainer brought her horse, Moonshine! I've missed him. He was one of my four-legged partners in crime. *I had many* But anyway, Linnea asked if I was free any day this week after school to come ride. SO i'm going for a lesson on Thursday. : ) It turns out I forgot to tell Linnea that I was riding bareback on my friends horse when I was bucked off... She was not happy with me at that moment. She held her arm to my forehead and i was like "This is NOT a V8 commercial!" I thought she was gonna pop me in the head. SHe was like "I was just checking to see if you were sick!" (She thinks i'm weird anyway) But yeah it was the second day Count had been in NC and Liz wouldn't let me use my saddle so I had to get on bareback. Come to find out Count is TERRIFIED of a car driving slowly by. He bucked me off as soon as i got on. The pic is of me riding Count when we went to try him out. Had to drive 3 hours to go see him. Sooooo boring. ARggg. Oh well thats all i have to say.

Sorry I haven't been updating!

I'm soo sorry guys. THings have been hectic lately. I haven't ridden since April/May and tons of doctors appointments and end of term. Now school starts in a few weeks! I'll be a junior this year :P I may or may not have to have surjury. We don't know yet. We'll hopefully know on the 19th. THats when I go to the doctor next. I got an invitation yesterday to be a student ambassador next summer and it means going to EUROPE!!!! Yay! I might be going to Italy, Sicily, and Greece! The trip is for 19 days. Also family wants my family to come visit them in Canada. So my show season next year will be scarce/if i get to show @ all! I'm actually in the process of trying to get a horse. So that will be interesting. I am interested in a 16.1hh Black QH mare named Mocha. : ) Trained both english and western I believe. I only ride english. Well... I ride both but i have the equipment to ride English. It's my preference. I do ride bareback too.
