my life with horses
10:42 AM, New Goal!
Sunday, August 24, 2008

Hey guys!

I spent my morning gabbing with Mariah and sharing ideas and experiences from the past few days and all the brainstorming gave us an idea!
I have been wanting to introduce Lady and her mother-in-law (ha ha! - Mariah) for a while now.
SO!
We have hatched a plan.
The Goal:
To bring Lady with mom and I down to Mariah's place on September 25th to spend four days. Four whole days of LEARNING and TEACHING and general JOY.
Just Lady, Katie and Mariah.
It would be beneficial to all three of us!
Mariah would get to play with a new horse and work on her teaching. (horse and student!)
Lady would get to play with a very Savvy person and experience a new environment with new horses.
I would get to learn from a Savvy person, watch her playing with Lady and she could watch me play with Lady.


For us to be ready to go to Mariah's place on the 25th, we are going to have to do a lot of preparation in between now and then.
Therefore some big changes are going to be made.
I am very determined to do this so I'll be working hard to meet all my goals.

Here are some changes for you to be looking out for on my blog:

  1. From now until the 25th I will be blogging religiously twice a day; once before playing to state my lesson plan and once after with results good and bad. On the days I find that I can't play, I'll blog at least once.
  2. I will make a checklist and post it somewhere on my blog or at least have a link to it somewhere. You'll be able to see what I'm working on, what I've accomplished and what I still need to do.
  3. Also, you'll probably notice my blog layout changing a lot and I apologize. I'm just looking for one that allows me to put everything I want to show on there.

That's all on this subject for now but as for other news:

My gramma's biopsy was negative for cancer!

I'm letting my fingernails grow out.

I've got a paying job! Babysitting; I start next Monday.

I'm incredibly sunburned and I finally got some new flip flops.

We're.. probably not moving.

I'll make out my checklist later tonight and I'll begin with the doubledaily updates tomorrow :)

Lunch time!

Yours naturally,

Katie
