Dancing in the rain

Have you ever had experiences through your life when you know no matter how old you get or what happens ,you know that moment will stay with you?

I woke early, the first thing i do is look out of the bedroom window at the sky and smile, there's days when the clouds are looming but there's also days that the weather can heighten experiences and can bring surprises... this morning was definitely a feel good one..

I was choked when they took me off Sorrel (the chestnut horse) i loved riding him and was a bit sick that i could only now sit and watch him , i was moved horses as Sarah said i was progressing well she wanted to see if i could cope and handle shadow (the white horse) it was done for the right reasons and supposed to be a new challenge, but i didn't feel the same when i rode her, shes more powerful totally unpredictable and loves to lead..oops my fella says I was given a horse that's like me.....oops again , i lost some of that feeling i have when i ride and felt sad when i watched Sorrel and his new rider..

Today we pulled up and the whole paddock was full of jumps ! its not a problem for those of you that are used to this, or been riding for years, but to me after just a few months into the class it was a bit nerve racking, my first words when i got out of the car were ... oh shit ! lol

Ive never seen so many jumps in there, i have to lead the class now too and have no sense of direction at all...lol

The girls all laugh Sarah asks if i have my confident knickers on today ..no (not the best day for a G string) they must all be getting to know me pretty well as they just giggle and take no notice of me...

I had the best lesson, every week im learning something new and getting to know Shadow who is definitely free spirited .. she knows she can do these jumps with her eyes closed so decides shes going to lead again... this time i didn't let her, i did so well ...kept her under control, but also gave her enough freedom to work with me, and my god didn't she..........

Every moan Ive had about that horse being too fast I'm taking back, she will make me a better rider, Sorrels easy to ride, but she definitely isnt ! so i was copping out ...lol

We were jumping the whole lesson it was brilliant, the rain started halfway through and i was then on the doubles i had one thing in my head taking those jumps (you're gonna giggle at this)... I honestly couldnt think of a better feeling than that moment, my face was soaked the wind was blowing my hair everywhere yet i felt so good and felt like i was flying.......

It wasn't Sorrel that used to make me feel like that ... it was me.... the girls there are brilliant and support us to the hilt, i got a huge compliment from Nikita when we finished the lesson, she said that not many people can handle shadow properly but i was one who can .................. i sat there on that horse feeling about 13 with my mouth wide open....lol I was actually proud of what id done (it had to be the week my fella didn't come too) lol

Coming home we were giggling about how me and Lauren feel in our time out at the stables together, we go home so excited on a high for the rest of the day and really get taken the mickey out of, but no words can say how it feels or how i felt today, nothing else i have done even touches it (well ok then perhaps one other thing).... lol ....It was exilerating...

I don't want to be put back on the chestnut horse anymore, i want to ride the white horse and feel how i did today... soaked through to the skin by the rain ...but glowing with happiness inside out..

I need to get that G string out more often........lol

Feeling the Light

What a day........Its been a flyer ......

It started off with my fella leaving at 7 this morning and getting up at 5 to pack lunch get everything organised for him to go, prepare lists and sizes and get in front for the march of the kids that was just round the corner...lol

Sandra was with me this morning, so it was lovely to spend some time with her having our girly giggles, she is definitely one of the most loveliest people Ive ever met, always happy always smiling...she seems to carry this ray of light with her, can read my thoughts and knows when i need to talk so talk we tried to do.......lol

The only thing was the phone hasn't stopped today order after order, i thought last week was good but today ive broke records and am extremely happy tonight, im still managing to keep up though, so the faster they come in the quicker im determined to get...Sandra was amazed at how quick my typing's got too !! it has to be......

But its like someones finally turned those lights on...

I couldn't wait for my partner to phone and ask me about the day, it just went quiet and i think he thought i was joking when i told him as he laughed then went quiet...

Tomorrow im really excited, not because ive got to pack this lot up, but my fella has bought me a surprise home..... so i may just have to wait up for this one .. its a dress !!

Not any dress though, its the dress i fell in love with at first sight... take my word for it these are so very beautiful.. they are not complicated, which is probably why i loved it so much, but a dress i really am really wanting to wear, so that's a definite first... you'll see it on Monday in my website (front page) , but the size 8 will be missing as its got reserved already on that one, and im working my butt off this end to earn it now....lol

Ive also just been told that the triplets school is closed tomorrow so im going to work with 3 little ones in tow... so ive got some sewing for Lauren to do, the boys are beading mums belt and cleaning the modelling jewelery... lol .. they cant wait ! hehe

Im now going to grab a cheese sandwich and a cuppa, run myself a bath full of bubbles, take that phone off the hook for an hour and relax, my fellas pinched my Enigma cds in his car so ill have to sing to myself tonight, pat myself on the back and say well done..........

Its been a good day today....... with Sandra for company .. happy customers all day and getting it all done...

Now theres something i definately don't get to say everyday..........

Girls Night Out

I dropped my workload last night thankfully and went out with my best friend for a girly night, just the two of us..

We've been promising to do it for ages and every time she asks me to go up, either i cant get a sitter or I'm swamped under with work, so i promised myself next time she asked i would drop the work and just go, so last night i did, my fella has kindly now offered to sit for me whenever i want to go out as i do need time away and I'm the one who usually covers for him...

So out i go with no handbag again and all my pockets filled up with my essentials..lol and had a totally brilliant night..

We spent an evening at her local pub, i was a bit worried that i wouldn't fit in at first as they know everyone there, and i didn't, but i worried for nothing as the people were great with me..

I was going to drink coke and drive home, but made the mistake of having one vodka, which is lethal for me as i then want another lol (im worse with brandy as i love that stuff even more) so decided id spend my first night away from home at her house on my own.......... so it was a first for me..

I had a great time, the locals were making me giggle all night with stories and i even got shown photos on some guys phone that would make your jaw drop... its my boots you see, they have a strange impression on people..lol but altogether it was a great night..

I met another guy last night who prides himself on his manhood and wanted to swing it about a bit in my friends direction ...lol, but she dealt with him the same way i would have done and wonderfully put him back down to earth, along with half the pub that joined up to make him feel a lot shorter than the 8 inches he claims he had ready and waiting..hehe

We finished the night off with drinks in their jacuzzi at home, joined also by the lord (as he'd just finished work) and we sat there til the early hours chatting and relaxing, i really couldn't have wished for a better night or better company.......they make me feel so comfortable with them.......

It may have been my first over night stay on my own .....

but i hope now, it certainly wont be my last........

Thank you so much, I really love you guys ........ xxx
