Dreaming.In.Reality

i’m sure that will change once i step out the door and walk to the car… but at least i’ll know i still look good-purrrow- i sorta mastered my green eyeshadow today.. and i have to say, it looks FABULOUS with my green sweater.

i was thinking last night, about how i LIVE for mid friday mornings.. 1130 to be exact.. because that’s when i’m freeeeeeeee. the school schedule has got me down a bit yo.. i think. that if the class was maybe another half hour, i’d feel like the getting up was worth it*L* i don’t mind school, and being there.. just the getting up part. i’m only there for 2.5 hours.. and almost the full .5 of that is a coffee break… so yeah.. make it worth my time! or something.. friday is only one day away!

in less than one day.. i went from $260 to $380. Am I ready for the pain? Not really*L* But I’m looking forward to the activities. Miss Sanders and I are supposed to go Saturday to the Fair.. and then she and her oldest girl are going Sunday to the Run as well. She’s supposed to call me tonight to finalize things.. The car needs new brakes.. my patience is running low at school. It’s getting colder than I realized in the morning. I had to walk to the dealership to pick up the P5 from it’s oil change before school. I didn’t take a sweater and WHOA so very cold. Flame had his feet trimmed today and his shoes tacked back on. I finally found leather oil, and slathered up the fieldboots. I’ll be putting more on them tonight, give them a good polish tomorrow. Not that I’ll probably wear them at the barn or anything, but I don’t want them to look so bad anymore. Not to mention they’re so expensive.

jay & marc, i am only $10 away from my goal. you people are quite lovely.

The third annual Boobiethon is rapidly approaching. It will run October 1-10. Robyn has taken on volunteers this year to help things along and everyone is excited. Electric Bugaloo has put together a Boobiethon History, so pop on over there to have a read. More updates to come on that.

In related news, a lovely creature has donated to the Run for the Cure, bringing my total donations raised to $195, bringing me to $55 under my goal with a week still left to go. Thank you all again for your support and well wishes, I pass them along to my mom.. and it makes her laugh. The kindness of strangers is always a wonderful thing, and she appreciates it all.

Flame has these moments, where you can never tell if he’s feeling slightly under the weather.. or the “sanity” switch somehow got flipped on in his brain. I’m hoping it’s the sanity switch, or if it was under the weather, it was because of the weather. It was quite humid yesterday. K and I went out to give Flame a bath, and I figured because he was going with.. that I’d have him take some photos of me riding badly. So I got Flame ready, lunged, tacked, rode.. Absolutely amazing personality day. He worked hard and good, no arguments, not even a hint of fussing. I could handle him being like that more often.

I have noted though, that I need to take the jumping bridle out to the barn. Flame needs to get back on track with listening to the bit and leg signals, without me pulling his face off and not being able to put my leg on because he runs through it or away from it. So the next few rides he’ll get “tuned up” so to speak with the jumping bridle. The bit on that baby offers no arguments. I’ve also noted that my riding position leaves much to desire-glares at photos- I reaaaaaaaally need to get a job so I can get some lessons.
