fabulous day!
I had just the most awesome day today!!! Normally, I jockey a computer for 9 hours, 5 days a week, but not today!!! Our Equestrian teacher had a vacation today and she asked me (yes me!) to cover her class today. it is actually more than a class it is 3 hours before lunch and then 3 hours after lunch with a small crew of 4 teenagers. this morning we picked up poop and ran the wheelbarrows up onto the compost pile, we talked and sang along with old 70's songs, which none of them knew and I knew ALL the words to. It was A BLAST!!
Then we groomed all 6 of the horses and gave them a lunch time snack while we came back and had super yummy chicken for lunch.
After lunch, we went back out and talked a little about horse illnesses, then got one of them out and, with the aid of a labeled diagram, put post it notes all over her with the different parts- like hoof, croup, stifle. it was soooo fun! Then I got to show them how to put on a western saddle and bridle and they got to do a little riding.
it was the absolute best!! and on top of it all I got paid to do it! so much better than sitting at the computer.
yay horsies!!!
