Just Keep Swimming

Just keep swimming, swimming. 

Gosh I love this movie, lol.

That's pretty much what I keep telling myself. I have a crazy, crazy week - today I was in classes from 9am until 7pm with only a 30 minute break for lunch. Holy moly. And it looks like tomorrow's going to be pretty much the same with class from 9am until 8pm but at least I have an hour this time for lunch. Sigh. I'm not sure if I am going to have time to get out to the barn (today was sadly pony-less) but I'm hoping that I'll get out of my lab class early enough tomorrow that I can run out for a quick ride on Jetta. Speaking of which - can I just drop out of college and ride ponies all day?? Pretty please? That's all I really want to do. I just have to keep telling myself that 1) I really do love the work a vet does (seriously) and 2) if I want to pay for my horsies, it would be better to have a better paying job than horse trainer. It's still tough though.

Anyways, the weather is gorgeous out. Today was actually hot for the first time this week. I think it might be time to break out the fly sheet once I get to the barn - the bugs have been out in force! That's definitely the worst part of summer for me. I think the flies bother me just as much if not more than the horses. The good weather is good and bad - good because gloomy days make me feel gloomy, thus I feel more upbeat when the sun is out. And bad because all I want to be doing is riding my horse outside. Hopefully (fingers crossed!) there's another trail ride in store this Friday. Dr. P and ML are thinking of hauling out to my barn so we can explore the trails that are supposed to be around somewhere... And no stallion this time!
