I’ve been manically consuming anything to do with horses for the past week. I finally had the ride today that I needed. I was able to get Maximas to stick to the speed I wanted, instead of just running around and making us both look like ninnies.

I also wrote a poem from a writing prompt on one of my facebook groups. Horses were able to check off three of my goal boxes for today. Riding, writing, and exercising.

Guitar center is supposed to call me at the end of the week when they can get started on tuning up my classical guitar. I’ve been playing scales on the acoustic until I get the classical one back. Maybe I’ll do that in a little bit so I can have a four checkmark day.

There’s a lot of busy human energy around me. Everyone either wants to win the giant lottery jackpot or is convinced that the presidential inauguration will be the end of the world as we know it.

I took this picture as I was leaving the stable. The sky was so pretty and calm. I want to be like that sky.
