Sorry guys, I've been EXTREMELY busy...

There has been too much going on to even think about posting. I just absolutely had no idea how busy I was going to get. I guess I'll start with the major events first.

Last week, Zorro (a three year old App. stud at our barn) was hit by a car. The driver apparently wasn't paying attention, ran off the road and plowed into our fence, hitting Zorro in the process. His left leg was literally snapped in half, both bones---all the way through. Needless to say, that has been devestating. Gerry, his owner, chose to fight for him and he now has a cast on his left in attempts to save it, but I just am not very confident that he will succeed.

The week before, I had a TON of homework, work, and tests, so I just didn't have time to do anything other than work.

This weekend was my lesson students first horse show, and for those of you who have given lessons on horses that still have a little spunk, you know how nerve racking that can be. Not only that, but we took the new horse ("Too Much Fun" aka A.J., western saddlebred gelding) to the show to test him out. SO not only did I have to completely prepare for all of that, I also had to take care of all of my school work, help take care of poor Zorro, take care of the house work, and help out my friends (who have been having relationship problems as of late).

However, Saturday night at the horse show, a few Coronas with lime and some good friends being goofy made me feel a lot better.

I'll try to keep up with this better now....
