Hectic Time Of Year
13 years ago
Christmas is always crazy time of year and for me its finally winding down!
But I had a great holiday despite the chaos. lol Got to see nearly all my rellies. My grandma whom was in the hospital because of all sortsa stuff including a stroke was home for the holidays.
On Top of all that we celebrated her birthday and mine which linger around Christmas. Before Christmas though my mom threw me a little get together with my friends neighbors and co workers. Then my best friend and I the next day went trail riding XD
It was so much fun! Second time riding in a western saddle... still hate it>< English saddles are soooo much more comfortable. Who ever said otherwise was numb from the hips down.
So this being my friends first time ever riding I was understandably worried. But they paired her up with a good well rounded beginners horse. He really was a great horse! BUT SLOW AS HELL.
I didnt want her to be left behind so I pulled up the rear. It pissed my horse off lol but oh well. Her horse was like that oblivious old person who goes like 10 miles under the speed limit.
Eventually we got so impatient with her horse we were telling her to kick and to use the riding crop that I hadn't noticed was attached to the saddle. lol Now I understand why. But yeah my friend didnt really seem to understand the effort needed to be put into making a horse go. Eventually I gave up on telling her to kick harder lol.
So yeah ! After that we went to a Bob's Furniture store to sit on some couches because my friend and I are finally moving into a house !! XD so exciting! If all the paperwork gets drawn up on time ... like it was supposed be this past friday. Then on monday we should be set and by 4:00pm the keys will be in our hands and the house shall be ours!
Then all the work starts! Up goes all of the carpet and in the trash. Down goes new carpet and hardwood. Then we are putting down new tile in the bathrooms, scrapping off the hideous back splash in the kitchen. Then paint, paint, paint, and paint some more. As well as scrubbing with every inch of the house with cleaning products!
We plan to have a Drunken new years cleaning party. XD Hellz yeah. Im legit super excited about it.
But yeah ! So their is that going on and then their is drama at work because of the holidays and the snow. Shifts have been all wonky! Almost ended up having to stay overnight >< never wish to do that.
Then there are my distractions at home which come in the form of a brand new PS3 so now I dont have to share and the entire collection of Assassins Creed Games XD As well as Books ! and new amazing art supplies ! Sakura water colors XD Hellz yeah and Humungor Watercolor paper XD.
So as you can see Ive been a busy bee and now with this house business Im going to find myself even more busy.
