Yesterday’s Blessing, Today’s Curse
7 May 2009This morning we have a 2 hour delay for fog. Normally this would be an occasion of JOY! Who doesn’t love a surprise fog delay? Ugh…NOT on the day of my big spring concert, when I have a zillion rehearsals to run, the program hasn’t even been printed yet, and I have a million of [...]
Hopeless, not hopegone
30 April 2009OK, this is a personal pep talk to myself. You can leave if you’d like.
Yeah, I get it. Taylor is not pregnant. Once again fate has spit in your eye. It’s been 5 years since you had a living, healthy foal past 30 days. You work your butt off only to have people who don’t [...]
Coping
21 April 2009I am trying very hard to hold it all together today. I am not letting myself think at all. It’s so hard. I am so down, I really have no energy nor any will to do anything. I am angry – angry at God, at life, at everyone else who puts HALF the amount of [...]
Real Life
8 April 2009Don’t you think real life would be better served…um…in real life? I mean, reading personal blogs in your spare time is amusing and entertaining for the most part, but it only gives a snippet of information based on the 90 seconds it took to type it out at any given moment. Maybe, just maybe, if [...]
Breakdown in the hay
7 April 2009I picked up 40 bales of really crappy alfalfa today. I drove 30mph to the barn (yes…40 of the 80-pound bales were balanced in the back of my truck!), parked in the driveway, and wheelbarrowed 2 bales at a time down the drive, through the mud corral, across the arena, to my stalls…where i stacked [...]
Frustration Thursday Episode 2
12 March 2009I swear…some poeple make me want to like on a small island in the Caribbean. I am just so frustrated with unreasonable people that cannot see beyond their own desires, greed, and self-importance. I dragged my feet coming to work today, and I most likely will drag my feet coming to work again tomorrow. TGIF [...]
Perfection…or the lack therof
12 February 2009People who think they are perfect really irk me. I mean, come ON, nobody is perfect. NO ONE. You are a complete blooming idiot if you think you are blameless, flawless, or without the need to ever apologize. I am at the point in my life now where I just skim over those self-convinced “perfect” [...]
Mye Skedyul Suxs
12 November 2008Gah! It’s 10:30pm and I just finihed supper. You heard it right – supper. What a long day. I was at school – my usual hours of 7:30am-3, then I had marching band 3-4, then I rushed to the barn and got ONE stall cleaned (poor Taylor will have to wait another day to have [...]
D – D – D – - Defense!
11 November 2008Living my life is like walking blindly through a minefield. You step carefully, lightly, and thoughtfully, and yet still land on one that blows up unsuspectingly in your face. Eventually I am just going to stop walking and stand stock-still for the rest of my days. Either that or just take a suicide-bent run and [...]
70 Miles x 2…wasted
16 September 2008That’s 3 hours of my life gone that i cannot get back. Bruce OWES me 3 hours. I ought to take it out of his stinky hide. THANKS to everyone who bothered to call and let me know that freaking jazz rehearsal had been CANCELLED tonight. Naw, I wanted to waste 3 hours and $80 [...]
