YIKES

Wow, ok.. so this week has been out of control! I have not stepped foot in the gym all week and I have been eating so horribly! This having a cold has completely ruined any attempt to be "good". As of tomorrow... No more crap food and I am going to the gym 4 days next week!

I have a Barrel Race tomorrow, Wish Cuda and I luck :o)

SLOWLY BUT SURELY

Ok... so getting back to 100% seems to be a slow process... Now my throat is just a little bit sore (rather than a lot sore) and my runny nose has gone away (For the most part)? I am not sure which is worse, the runny nose? or the sore throat?

There is a group of girls that usually come out and ride on Wednesday nights and I have cencelled for tonight. In hopes that sitting on a couch all toasy and warm will help get me back to 100%.

COBRA (Central oregon Barrel Racing Association) is starting up this Saturday. The winter series, that I go to for the purpose of freezing my toosh off? Even though I grumble about it, I guess I really must enjoy it, or I wouldn't go?

BETTER TODAY, NOT SO GOOD YESTERDAY!

Well, here it is Tuesday, and I am feeling much better than I was feeling on Monday. Monday I woke up with a runny nose and sore throat :o( Today, I still have the runny nose but the sore throat seems to have gone away :o) We had plans to go to the pumpkin patch last weekend and did not make it so we are going to make another attempt to go Sunday. I want to bake the pumpkin seeds, they are so yummy! :o)

WEEKEND! YAHOO!

This weekend brings... NOTHING! and I love that!

It is getting cold out so we are going to work on the indoor arena a bit this weekend. Although I intend to use the outdoor arena as long as possible to avoid the dust! :o) It seems like during the summer it gets turned into a HUGE STORAGE bin for everything so we are going to move everything out and fix a few broken boards so on those windy nights I need to ride, I can do it indoors and actually feel my fingers and toes! :o)

Stetson had class last night, but it was a field trip. Field Trip generally means, home early :o) He was home at like 7:30 and it was nice :o)

Just wanted to share this with you~

In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday. Oprah
asked her what she thought of growing older.

'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life
does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.'

'I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she
handles these three things: a rainy day , lost luggage , and tangled
Christmas tree lights .'

'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents,
you'll miss them when they're gone from your life .'

'I' ve learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a
life.'

'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance .'

'I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on
both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back .'

'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I
usually make the right decision .'

'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one .'

'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back .

'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn .'
'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget
what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel .'

FALL WEATHER IS AMONG US...

Hello everyone!

I hope everyone is having a spectacular October :o)

I am sitting here at work... and I cannot even work! It is 62 degrees in our office right now. It was cold all last week, but not this cold! You can change the thermostat all you want BUT IT DOES NOT LISTEN. So today I called the property manager to tell her I CAN'T WORK LIKE THIS ANYMORE! My limbs are numb! I am going to have to start wearing a ski parka!!! I want a stable 72 degrees ALL YEAR LONG... How hard is that??? Ok now you have heard me grumble and mumble...

As always my weekend went by entirely too fast and it really did not feel like a weekend at all (That seems to be the trend) I think that is my que that I could really use a vacation. A vacation that is more than just a long weekend. However, I do not see that happening anytime soon... Big Bummer!!!

Brrrrrrrrrr..................

And I just want to close my eyes...

GOOD MORNING....

Well, Morning anyway!

grrr... the last few nights I have not been able to sleep! I sleep til like 2:00 or 3:00 and then I sleep for 30 minutes, awake for 30 minutes and this repeats until the alarm goes off. It's driving me CRAZY!!!! I NEED MY SLEEP!!!! a WHOLE 8 hours of it!!!!

So it's Thursday, I hate Tuesdays and Thursdays! They are such long days. Stet has class so he does not make it home until like 9:30. (Deep breath)

Plans for today would include, work, go lift weights on my lunch break, eat my leftover subway sandwich, Get off at 5:00, head to the gym to Spin for an hour, go home and ride my ponies, Get dinner going, do dishes, wait for Stet to get home so we can eat and go to bed... Not too exciting!

This weekend we do not have many plans so it should be nice. We are having some friends over to shoot trap tomorrow evening, and then at some point I plan to meet up with a friend that I never get to see. Her little family is making it over the hill to Central Oregon and I am super excited :o)

OH YES, I almost forgot, Stet has an appt. tomorrow at the eye dr. He is SOOO excited because he is getting fitted for contacts! He HATES wearing glasses. He has been grumbling about it since he got them. At the time they told him he could not get his prescription in contacts, but now it looks like he can :o)
