FRIDAY: My horse back riding lesson was canceled on Thursday so I had it Friday morning. The horse I ride, Flash, stays up in a pasture that is on a hill. The day before it rained and rained and rained so the hill was way muddy. When I had got Flash and was leading him down the hill, trying to go super slow so he wouldn't slip, he slipped (go figure). I let go of the leadrope and he skied down the hill about 20 feet. When I walked back up to him he wasn't spooked at all. Good horse. In my lessons I'm working on jumping courses--which is a series of jumps in an order. One jump I did was so adorable! It was a few hale bales laid out next to each other. On each side was a hollowed out pumpkin with yellow and orange flowers in it and on top of the jump was a small pumpkin with a drawn on face. It was cool.
That night we went to a 'bonfire and hotdog roast' at a friend's house. My mom came home early from work sick so she couldn't go (I'll be a nice daughter and not mention the part that her boss drove her home and my mom threw up on her car....lol). But me, my dad and Trevor did. It was fun. We had hotdogs (Duh) and dessert and ate it up by the fire. Which wasn't exactly a bonfire....more like a camp fire but whatever.
Nothing happened Sat, Sun or Mon so I'll talk about today.
TUESDAY: We left to go shopping at about 1 in the afternoon. The soccer thing wasn't until 6. First we went to Hamrick's. OK, no offense if any of you like that store but talk about a grandma store. I mean, seriously, everywhere I looked there was that cute little puff of gray or white hair all old ladies have. My mom bought a few things but not me. Me and Trevor sat in the car for like 30 minutes when my mom was in the store. It even smelled old lady-ish and I have a cold and a headache and that smell...ugh...anway. Then we went to our mall. We wandered around a little. Lately I have wanting to have my ear pierced up high on my ear. 'wanting to' as in changing my mind ever other minute. But I did it today! It looks so cool! I don't have any pics at the moment but I'll get one. When the girl did it I didn't even flinch. It didn't hurt...nearly as much as I thought it would anyway. But now it is soooo tender.....
Then we drove to the pizza place.

We actually go snow! Well not us personally but only about maybe a 30 minute drive from our house. That is sooo awesome!!

Yep, thanks about the old lady store comments. In my defense, I only shop a few of the racks, it's cheap, it's perfect for work, and it'll do until I get to Kohl's!
You were STOIC during the piercing. You didn't even blink hard. I was quite impressed!
Glad you refer to the grandma store as that place where everywhere you looked you saw little old ladies with gray or white hair. I qualify for being a grandma, but I am definitely not a little old lady and I don't have gray or white hair...at least not showing!
Your jumping with Flash and your description of the hay bales and pumpkins sounds great. Pictures, show us pictures!
If I had pictures I'd show them....:). But I don't. I'll try to get some in my next lesson though.....
when I got my 3rd hole it didn't hurt but man was it ever sore for weeks on. I also don't have a great track record with piercings healing. So here it is almost 3 years down the road and I don't think it'll ever heal.
Bess, ouch. One of my friends got her ears pierced in the normal spot and it got, like, infected. Gross white and yellow stuff would always come out of her hole when she would clean it.....:P
