Dinner is served!

Suilad! :)
I'm making dinner. It's Roast Chicken, Yum! Since I'm Vegan I'm not having it, -huge bummer- but it's still fun to make. Nathan came upstairs and said, "Gosh! That smells good!", that's sweet of him! :) I have this dreadful feeling that because I'm not eating meat I'll make something that tastes awful and no one will tell me. ;P He he, that would be funny and really horrible! :D

I have a random statement to make: Literature Rocks! I love it! You get to read, write, and while you're at it you get to express you opinion in big fancy words! How awesome is that? So much cooler than math, math is horrible and needs to solve it's own problems because I have my own (yes Lauren, that was on your blog but I had seen it before). :):) I also like the vocabulary mommy gave us to work on, it's cool and it's similar to spelling but a little more complicated.

That's it folks!

Jumping

One of the many things I take pleasure in is jumping. It's so fun! This is a super small clip of Cricket and I. Literally, like 7 seconds. It was taken from as stand-still so please don't critique, I'm not perfect. Cricket and I are improving quite quickly and you can fully expect us to be much better if not perfect at something in a week.  

...with you holding my hand...

Suilad!

Sut naa lle? I'm doing well. "Around here normal is just a setting on the dryer", then the dryer broke. There seems to be a normalness about the non-normal, everyday life! :)

Cricket and I played a bit with Freestyle and some Online today. Mostly Freestyle at about 10:30 am, it was fun and it wasn't hot yet, it's 90 right now. We need to work on doing things faster since we already know them slow and right. There is one thing that still needs teaching before we film, I think it will be the hardest, simple lead changes. They're not hard because of the lead change, but that they ask you to do it in a bow-tie/figure eight pattern. So, yeah. Cool cool cool! (<---Ah! The heat!)

It's going to be a good day! :)

So I woke up 5:20, that was only a few minutes ago. In the early hours of morning, my brain turns on and when people start waking up and moving around it wakes me up and seems to say, "Hey! It'd be really useful if you got up early now and did some school and got ahead in the day!" It always seems to seem like a good reason to get up so I usually do. I think it's something I unconsciously taught myself. It's weird 'cause I love getting up early and it makes me cheerful (or more cheerful, I'm not a very 'uncheerful' person). I'm also really surprised by another thing, I love to stay up late and my brain will still wake me up even if I've been late in going to bed. Just to top all that off, I'm a really heavy sleeper and if my brain is still dreaming, it won't wake me up. Strange, I am very strange.

So, I hope your day is as good as mine is going to be! :):)

Vanya Sulie!

Becoming a Horseman

Westu Hal, Rohirrim! 

How goes it? All is well here. Abby is back, I think that makes most of it well. I really missed her and I think I won't be having any nightmares now shes home. 

I watched the second half of the Parelli Live Celebration DVD, it was a great inspiration. I am really excited to go to the pasture with the new mind set I've been given. I wish more people had the zeal and the knowledge that is shared with me on a regular basis, it's a amazing blessing. I'm more motivated to become a horseman now that I've seen more. 

Cricket is doing lovely. She never stops amazing me, no one will ever be able to captivate me in the same way she does. I've learned much in the past month about patience and having a huge dream that can still remain semi-realistic. 

Life's a climb, but the view's great! 

Tasks we are working on: 

Trotting smooth circles

Flying Lead changes 

Simple Lead changes (bowtie) 

Spins

Freestyle trailer loading

And so much more! 

Vanya sulie!

Level 4

Westu Hal, Rohirrim!

Yes, Level 4. A place I never thought I'd be.

Liberty (without a rope)-- just about done, only 4 tasks that are still challenging us.

Finesse (collection)-- I'm trying not to do very much here yet. I'm waiting 'till I can afford a Cradle bridle, that will be a while.

Online (with a rope)-- 9 tasks left 'till filming, there are 24 tasks in all. There is still a lot I need to do. I want us to be able to do everything on the self assessments.

 Freestyle (casual riding)-- 18 tasks, 9 that I can do.

Nai!
