Your Love Is Strong.

So, er, craziness. I have so much to blog about. hahaha.
Well, first of all, my Mom is back home. :]
She got home on Thursday. She was gone for five weeks.
We were getting along really good though. My cooking was still fail.
But I had gotten the hang of feeding, and cleaning and all that good stuff.
It's nice not to have to do it though. x] I'll still probably help out more though.
Anyway, so her coming home brought up a lot of stuff.
First of all, I'm getting my room redone! She asked me if I wanted too.
And I was like...sure! I moved in there when I was 12. It reflects this.
So I'm going to paint it a light green [not lime or mint though.] and have a brown and green theme.
And a real bed. xD Not a loft. That will be really nice.
I'm really excited about this. It's going to be awesome. I'm even excited about the work. xD

I'm also going to be taking drivers ed! We are going to call and set it up this week. :]
I even have a car! Yep, my Mom brought home my Grandpa's car, so we have four.
Eric techinically has two cars, but Dad is going to use it until we are ready to buy another truck.
And then Eric will sell one, or something.
Anyway, I get my Dad's car. It's crappy and old and horribly ugly, and the windows don't work, and neither do the locks, and it's horrible. Hahaha, but it's a car, and if I dent it or something, it'll be ok. lol. And it'll *probably* get me where I need to go. xD

And we might sell Hanna. Yeah, I know, we just bought her.
But my Mom can afford a really nice new horse now... and none of us have bonded with Hanna. She's very unfriendly, and yeah. If we do, I'll put thirty days under saddle on her, and maybe take her to a show or something, just to get her some experience, and we'll resell her that way.
We haven't decided for sure though.

And Monday I'm getting my haircut. Finally. :]

Someday We'll Know.

So today. Hmm, pretty much another boring day. I worked with Sheik this morning, the first time in forever. I had kind of stopped a few months ago, because 1.) I was sick. 2.) it got cold. 3.) he was being a pain in the you know where. He's been an angel lately though, idk, me being the only person feeding him, and sitting out there with him, petting him while Easter takes forever to finish her feed, we've really bonded even more than we have before, and now he comes up to me in the pasture, not the other way around. It's been so nice, I really love it. I got the halter out, and walked over towards him, and kind of called him over, and he came over to me, even with me holding the halter, which pretty much stunned me. I didn't expect that. And he stood still while I haltered him. There wasn't even the usual You-haven't-worked-with-me-in-forever-i'm-going-to-test-you-again type thing. I told him to walk, and he did, it was pretty much amazing. And he remembers everything. I went through our normal pattern, minus a trot since the pasture is pretty bad there, and he did it pratically as well as if we did this everyday. He is so amazing. And then i was just standing there hugging his neck and he was just standing there. He's defintely gotten a lot more patient, and I think he's going to do much better this year. Hey, if we placed decently last year, when he was so funny looking, we should hopefully place even better this year. I'm really getting excited for show season, I wish it wasn't so far away!

Yeah, so that was basically the most exciting part of my day. After that I watched a few movies and cleaned up the house some, and we went out to dinner at Sonic and I watched more movies.

Ohh, the other great part of my weekend was watching a Jon Foreman concert online, live. It was amazing. The sound was like listening to a CD, but better. I only caught about five songs, but they were all just amazing. Jon is SUCH an amazing singer live, even better than he is in the studio, which is a rare thing these days. Your Love Is Strong gave me chills, and you haven't heard Dare You To Move until you've heard it with a cello.

And thus, the close of another thrilling weekend.

There's Still Fire In You Yet.

Not much to say again....I stayed up really late last night watching Hope Floats because I felt terrible and couldn't sleep. I felt just fine when I woke up though, so that's good. And I even had to get up early. We brought another hay bale into the field for the horses and a half bale up for the goats. We also filled up all the water troughs [there's like four. lol.] and all that good stuff. We spent a good two housr working just on that stuff.

After that we went to the base. It was freaking packed. Like...the most packed I have ever seen it. Very, very weird. It was pretty fun though. Super cold. Ugh. I hate winter. Why can't it be summer or at least get warm and stay warm? I didn't find what I was looking for at the base though...all the ipod speakers in my price range were only for ipods under 3G. And they didn't have the book I was looking for, so yeah.

Where Do You Run

Sooo...nothing excited going on. Yeah, unless you count getting locked out of the house today. It's really becoming a regular thing where my brother and I are invovled. Luckily I now know how to break into a house! Woo, go me. Which I am thankful for, because I didn't have my cell phone or anything, and Eric didn't get home till 4:30. Therefore I would have been outside for a very long time.

Yeah...so that's really about it. Tomorrow we are going to the base. ^.^

Me And The Trees Losing Our Leaves

Yesterday I watched A Walk To Remember. I know, it's really lame that I hadn't seen it before, especially knowing Switchfoot is in it. I just never had. I was flipping through channels and heard Switchfoot playing in the background, and my friend told me I'd better watch it, and played again after that, so I stayed up till midnight to watch the whole thing. It was amazing, I really loved it. I mean, it has Switchfoot AND Shane West! What's not to love? I want to buy the book, I think, even though it sounds like the book is really different. Only Hope is defintely the most amazing song for though, and it just made me love it even more. I'm totally know one of those girls that has put any thought to her wedding someday, but there is one thing I know for sure, and that's that Only Hope is going to be played.

So.. yeah, that's basically the most exciting thing I have to say. Bella's ad was taken down...so I'm guessing they sold her to that person. =/ I'm just hoping she got a really good home and they will love her and take care of her and not breed her or anything. I want her to have a happy life, she deserves it after everything she's been through. I just wish we hadn't sold her in the first place now. =/ It feels like I just lost her twice.

Bella.

So my Dad called me today, while I was out running some errands, and he's like "Guess who's for sale ad I just found?" And I was guessing Tango's or someone like that. But no.
It was Bella's. I mean I guess I knew they'd sell her eventually, but they just bought her in April/May. They wanted to train her and barrel race her or something. It defintely didn't sound like they'd be selling her in the near future. So Dad asked me if I wanted her back. I do. I don't really know what I'd do with her, she's a bit on the small side for me, and there'd still be another year before she could be trained, and with Hanna and Sheik, I really wouldn't be able to start showing her anything. But I want her back. I can't bear the thought of her going to some stranger who I'll never meet or know anything about, or ever know what happens to her. She was my foal, I raised her from when she was four months old and she didn't like people, and for almost two years. =/ Anyway, so he called and asked if we could buy her back for the same price we sold her to them for, and they basically said no. They have someone else looking at her, or something. But they'll 'let us know' if they can't find a buyer for her. So we'll see what happens...

Empty Conversations Filled With Empty Words.

Woo. Four days into the new year and basically, I have nothing to say. It's been extremely boring. But I guess that's a lot better than having a bunch of bad stuff happening. It would be nice if some good stuff happened though. =p

It was cold again today. I really hate winter. I want to live in Arizona. Now. Not in three and a half years. But it's going to be amazing when I finally get there. :)

And speaking of which, well not really, but, I might apply for a job at Braums, the ice cream place. Of any place in town, that's probably where I would want to work. And let's be honest;; have the best chance of getting a job there.
But I don't know yet. Just thinking about it. I'd hate to get a job and have it confinct with shows and everything. But I do really need money. So I'll just have to see what happens with it.

I also need to clean my room ... great. But it's really annoying me and I really need to do it. One of these days. Probably this week...
