Possum Creek with Megan
The other day I did end up going to Possum Creek with Megan. It was nice to be out there with the ponies! I didn't end up riding, but I watched Megan ride Sammy and I got to pet the ponies and chat with her. It was nice. Am talking to Elaine about volunteering again, so hopefully that will work out. Sorry, a short post!

Sorry For the Absence....
Once again, I have been absent. And I'm sorry.
Why is life so hard at times? Why is money so hard to make and save and spend? (Wait...no...it's easy to spend. Ha!) All I want is to have a stable time riding horses. Stable, and consistent. Where I am leasing, taking a good amount of lessons, etc. for months and months. Nothing is seeming to ever last and it's terribly annoying, and discouraging. I love horses. They need to be in my life!
Anyways, I have not been doing anything horse related as I just don't have the money. Not sure if I mentioned I had a job at McDonald's but I just couldn't take it and quit. It was terrible. Being the second time I worked there, I had enough. Luckily, I got a job at Barnes & Noble. And guess what? I absolutely love it! Have never loved a job this much before. Have worked about 12 days so far within three weeks and it's going really well. I am working in the café but will move onto bookseller and cashier in the future (I'm excited for that!) Unlike any job before, I feel secure. I feel like it's going to definitely be long-term and it's going to continue to go well. I really do love it. I'm very confident that it will stay.
Been trying off and on to get back into lessons or a lease but it never seems to work out. I think I may have my first lesson back with Amber this week, however. I'm hoping to have a lease pretty soon, and supplement it with the lessons. If I just have lessons, I never have the ability to practice on my own. It's hard to get very far with that. I really wish the lease had worked out with Jade... that would have been perfect.... But as Dumbledore says, "It doesn't do to dwell on dreams, and forget to live." (Yes, I'm a HUGE Harry Potter fan.)
I'm excited for my lesson this week. I think it will be Saturday. And that's good, as I will be paid on Friday. Just in time! Also, call me crazy, but I may try to volunteer at Possum Creek Stables again. If it's one of the only few ways to be exposed to horses, I'm all for it. Megan claims Elaine is in need of volunteers so she'll probably take me back even though I stopped showing up last time. I'm about to text her and see.
As usual, will update you when I can. Thanks to anyone who is still following my blog! I can't wait until I have actual interesting horse-related stuff to post, and not just "my-life-sucks-I-never-get-to-ride-horses-posts" haha. See ya!
