Half Vacay, Half Work

MEGAN: I woke up at 6:00 am, ran on the boardwalk, and went to daily Mass at St. Catheine’s cathedral with Mom this morning. Then, we drove to Lendon’s, Einstein in hand, after saying good bye to Yaya and Poppop. Mom and I enjoyed a traffic-filled ride, and upon reaching the house I changed, un-loaded all of my fresh fruit, and went to the stable to ride. Simba was a bit tired, even after being hand walked yesterday, so we worked for about 50 minutes on forward/bending. When he had a bath and grass, I helped scoop the Main barn, cleaned the Hunter Barn aisle, feed, and tack room, feed, water, and rescooped the Hunter Barn, and finally spent two hours packing for the show and cleaning up in Mica’s barn. Once home, I ran (just a short one) and worked on my application for the USDF Youth Convention Scholarship (a most-expenses-paid trip to the annual USDF convention to be held in Austin, TX this year). I then had brown rice, marinara, turkey, and New Jersey sweet corn for dinner. Yum! I am so full, and am very happy to be going to sleep.

SIMBA: Mom came back today! She gave me lots of treats and took me for grass (all of that was after work) and I saw her packing- uh oh! Looks like another show. I am a bit tired, but will work hard for you, Mom- even in this heat. Phew! What a hot day! I will see you tomorrow, hopefully in the shade!
