Hello All. OOps it's been almost 2 weeks since I last posted. I'm still here and things are still going very well.
My blog finally made it whole circle and Amy asked me about it. I told her that I've written it from the beginning thinking my boss should be able to read it and it be ok. So I sent her the link and told her to read away. If there is anything that makes her uncomfortable I will gladly remove it as it was never my intention to cause an issue for Millar Brooke Farm, it's staff or clients ect. This whole blog writing started as a way to let my family members and friends know how things are going without having to tell the same story 50 times. I never would have immagined it would have grown this big with so many people around the world following my story. I definatly don't hold that lightly and am always thankful for this experience and for the support from everyone reading. I have had grooms who have been hired to work here read it before coming and they said it was a great window into "A day in the life...."
It's not always easy or glamourous but when I write I never put anything negative...besides my own thoughts or feelings which I'm entitled to have, but still cautious in what I say or how I word it.
Hi Amy if your reading! Welcome to my blog.
Things at the farm have been carrying on as normal with everyone away at Spruce Meadows. I hear the horses are doing very well over there and we actually managed to watch one of the televised classes that Ian and In Style won! I saw Nikki on tv.....it was nice to acually see whats was going on over there. I miss Spruce dearly as I used to work there.
I've been riding Cash every second day.....I am really starting to love that horse. It's always a pleasure to ride him :) I am working hard on the tips Amy gave me to work on trying to always improve myself as a rider.
I really want to get back into a lesson program as I feel it's an important part to keep improving and getting stronger.
I had the day off today....well I worked for 2 hours first thing this morning as I had a horse leaving I had to get ready before he got on the truck. Once he was safely loaded and pulling out the driveway I made sure everything was set for the day and I was going back to bed! I slept in after that, cleaned my house and made myself up. Went grocery shopping and had a 60 minute massage....mmmmm I sooooo needed that. I can actually move now. I had no idea how many knots I had in my back and under my shoulder blades. My finger tips keep going numb when I muck stalls and I found out its because knots were pinching a nerve when I moved a certain way....ouch. Might have to do this a few times a month. I feel great and today was a beautiful day.
I'm not able to make it home in time for my friends wedding which I'm SO extremly dissapointed about, however Amy was nice enough to offer me time off once everyone gets back home and settled. So I'm coming home again for a week.....a few weeks late but home none the less! I told Lisa I'll make it up to her and we can have a whole day of post wedding party so I can see and hear everything about that amazing day. Love you girl! I'm really really excited to see my farm, horses, Merissa who is running the place for me and taking such good care of the farm my mom said it's never looked better. Thanks Merissa and Leyland! Can't wait to visit with you....and I'm going to SWIM. Port Alberni summer here I come. Things to do.....swim in Sproat lake, go for a boat ride/tubing, visit all friends and have post wedding party, hang out with family, go tubing down the river which is the best way to spend a day ever, dance into the night with all the girls I miss like crazy, ride my OWN horses, visit my wonderful neighbour and family who lives across the street :) Oh man so many things to do. I get so excited thinking about it.....31 days!
I'm also on a fitness kick to get back in shapre before then haha. I got some pounds to lose! Bought all good food today and am going to start going to the gym a few times a week. Going to try for 5 but I know how tired I am some times at the end of the day so we'll see. I CAN do this.
Anyway I should un wind and get to bed. Back to the grind tomorrow. Thinking of you all and will try not to go so long without writing again....TTFN
