Another great ride!
Kind of being a bad pony mom, but Max was so good the other day I couldn’t resist hiking the jumps up and making a real line, especially after Amy offered to pay all fees if I were to take him to a show. I didn’t do a real course… just a few higher jumps here and there to see how he would react.
Lynn and I went out and we shared Max. It was hot and we were stuck outside because...

I want a goal in the horse world.
I want something to strive for.
I love dressage but I hate showing. That doesn’t help.
Trail riding is a decent personal goal but it isn’t what I mean. I want to have a sport to live for, to work hard for.
All of my friends who ride have goals, whether it be…
Dear Kimi.
Come to a Hypnotist with me. That is all.
Ba-ba-ba-ba
Meh. Poop. Etc.
Kind of feeling that way today. I have to start my second ACC and ECO assignments which I am perpetually stressed about. I’m moving back north come this Tuesday for good… my queen bed and all. I’m very sad about that. I am hoping it will improve when Mark moves as well, but then I’m worried we’ll both be working so much we won’t ever make time...

LOL.
Yay Max pictures!
Kim, Mark, and I went out. Kim tacked up Alex and I tacked up Max. I wanted to get the same kind of work I got with him the last time I rode him, alas that was not the case… at least on the flat. He was very much behind my leg, he wasn’t listening, he wasn’t responsive, he was an all around poop. I tried transitions to get him working better which is usually his trick, but I...
Sloths are so in right now.
Rode Bix
Great ride. I went with Jess and we got there and they gave us a list of horses who they’d prefer to get work, none of which sounded appealing. I wanted to ride Lily really bad but because I never rode her before but they didn’t want to let me, which SUCKS. They almost gave me Nico, luckily they suggested Bix soon after and I really like him on the flat so I snatched him right up. They...
Good news?
I think so for the long run. I emailed fancy’s trainer two days ago and she finally got back to me. I asked her if she knew if her owner was open to payments, because if worse came to worse I could do that to afford the mare. The more I thought about it, the more I realized how much I don’t need to pay off a horse, and how long it would take me to pay off just 5,000 with a part time...
Interview today
Went like crapppp. Bad ride yesterday, bad interview today…. man, and I thought this week was going to be great too!!
Oh well, not all is lost. I have an interview with H&M next week and I applied to Express and Forever 21 who both said they were hiring in the near future. I talked to the hiring manager in Express and she was very nice and she almost assured me I would get a call in the...
