Keeping a Tight Schedule

Some of you might be wondering how I can still ride horses while I’m in school, maybe some of you aren’t, but what I’m going to explain to you in today’s blog is a normal day for me.

First I drag myself out of bed at 5:00 a.m. and start to get ready for school. My bus comes around 7:15 and I have to leave my house at 7:00. Don’t ask me why I get up so early but I just don’t like to be rushed and I like to have some time to veg in the morning.

Then I get on the bus and enjoy a nice 45-minute bus ride. When I get to school we all wait in the cafeteria until our teacher comes to dismiss all of us. This year I have Language Arts and Math and also Science and Social Studies depending on what day it is. Now I’m also taking keyboarding, music, gym, and art. It keeps me very busy but homework is not actually that bad – yet!

When the bell rings I get on the bus and am on my way home to go ride horses… unless I have drama club practice or yearbook which I would stay after school until 6:00 p.m. and then I wouldn’t be able to ride because it would be too late by the time that I got home.

So if I ride the normal bus home, I would get home and go inside and go change and get something to eat, then head outside to ride horses!
When I’m done ridding I will get cleaned up and then go to bed and set my alarms for another fun filled day!

Recently Mom and I went to an expo in Maryland to give demos and talks. I took Jacuzzi, my mustang and did a round penning demo and also showed people how easy it is to build your confidence around horses when you can get them to do cool stuff in the round pen and other stuff like bowing and laying down. It was really fun but mom and I were very busy!

We got to stay at a Sheraton Hotel that was attached to a very big mall! After the expo we would walk to the mall and shop a little bit and then have dinner at some good places to eat.

We’re doing it again in Harrisburg PA in February – I can’t wait really! Maybe I’ll see you there!
