MEGAN: Though I got an extra hour, it certainly didn’t feel like it! We went to the stable, fed the horses, and started on our turnouts. I was in charge of the pasture outback, Simba, and Paddock #2. All went well for a change- no wasp stings, trips around pastures still attached to horses by a lead rope due to over-exuberant equines, or mistakes with scheduling. I also did laundry, helped Laura hose off a horse (named Horse oddly enough) who had been running in his field, cleaned all the trunks in Mica’s barn, mopped the tack room, took shipping boots to the showroom, stored blankets for the summer, helped Annie give shots (YAY!!!), helped set up the outdoor arena, and re-organized Mica’s feed room. I also fed and re-scooped in Mica’s barn, carrying some grain bags to get some weight training in for cross. After making sure everything was done in Mica’s barn we went home and I went for an hour-and-a-half run. Not too hard today, just getting out for a long run. Lendon also left a list of things for us to do while she is in Kentucky for the North American Junior/ Young Rider Championships, so I did a few of those tasks as well. After a shower and dinner, I am catching up on stuff from the show. I am really tired, so it’s time to go to bed. Until tomorrow!
SIMBA: Today was just like yesterday- a nice grooming, clean water and stall, lots of food, and walks. A King could get used to this sort of attention. I most certainly deserve all of this fuss, though, and will accept it with grace. Ah, subjects. Where are my carrots? Subjects? Where are you!? In bed already. Lazy, lazy...
