riding lesson

Sleep in Saturday.. till 9 wahoo! Britt was up and off to her 10 am salon shift. I had 10 am appointment reschedule, but the 11 am would be here soon. I put poly on the coffee table center yet again as I was putting it on the white nesting table. They arrived on time, we loaded the tables and unloaded the curio they have next in line. We discussed paint colors and finish and they took a look thru the items for sale room looking for a mirror while here too. After they were heading back to the city, I finished polying the next 2 tables leaving them to dry as I ran to next appointment. My riding lesson on Switch is at 1, so I threw in my saddle and pad in the merc, grabbed an ice tea and headed off.

Sheldon started watering the trees making it his vigil for the day. He headed off to town after his lunch to fill the slip tank with diesel and stock up on beer and dog food. He also dropped the sprayer off at the rental for the tenant to spray his weeds. My lesson was great, Switch is doing so well and coming along nicely. I was back home just before 3 and Sheldon arrived soon after.

The day was overcast with sun peeks now and then, the wind was a bit blustery but it did hit 14. The bit of rain has sprouted the grass in places so it was time to coif it all up, I started poop & bone pickup so Sheldon could mow. I also put the water on the front planters.. whew she is dry. Britt and I gave Lola a spa day, she loves being brushed.

We moved the temp fence to beside the shop to let the horses clean that area and I put Bird and Pepper in the round pen. Britt rode her once home from work after 4 following the ride up with a pedicure..

The hockey draft pool had Sheldon consumed inside for the next while. Back in the house I cooked up a yummy shrimp sauce with vermicelli, YUM!

The evening turned out amazing.. no wind, sun and my favorite time of day. I convinced Sheldon to come walk the dogs with me. We arrived back at 8 passing Britt and friends on their way out to the city. I filled D's pool again and did a bit of weeding and replanting. Sheldon was back to hockey while I soaked in the tub.
