Taking Things for Granted

May 15, 2009 1 Comment by

It wasn’t until 9:30 this  morning when after noticing that there were still no other people coming that I asked Randy “There are no people here – am I missing something?”. He smiled and said the clinic doesn’t start until tomorrow. Some folks should start showing up later today.

I just took it for granted that a 4 day clinic would be Thursday to Sunday.

I’ve got a whole day to rest up for the clinic so I decide to play with Keeper in the arena some more and help get her used to being in arenas. The back wall of the Big Rock Walker Arena has a big black horse image that stands a good 10 or 12 feet high on the wall.  Like a horse standing up high.

Keeper would run to that end. Stop. Stick her head up in the air and take a good look at the horse on the wall and then swing her head around and look back at me like I should be way more alarmed about this than I was. She did this a few times. She has been living in the real world too long and takes everything at face value perhaps? Or maybe I just need to get her out more?

When I called Dave to tell him about my day off  he decided to come and spend the afternoon and evening.  I am lucky to have a good man.

    Too Funny! I hope you will continue your updates each day. I think I’m enjoying this so much because I believe I’d have all the same anxieties that you’ve been experiencing. Good on you for going ahead and getting through it. It sounds like you have gracious hosts and I’m sure you’ll love the clinic.
