My fall break-thus far! Left EARLY from school to head to Tunica. Drove my hiney home, singing All Star! Finished packing trailer, groomed fatnesses. Pam and Mary came and we loaded up and drove to get Claire/health papers (approx 1:30) Then as we drove out this moron wouldn't scoot over, so we ran over a drain and busted our tire! Went to Walmart and I had to flirt with the creepy loser in mechanics to get some tools (I will NEVER be the same woman!) euuuuuuwww! (shiver)  Then we got the tire changed with the help of some guy, nice old guy, not creepy loser) Then on the road we got! Claire and I sang all the way down! So much fun! We got there, unloaded horses-etc. Sat. got up before we went to bed (not literaly, just felt that way to my lack of sleep bodyt

HAY! Ya'll don't care, so I'll just stop there! Show ended and Pam and Claire and I stayerd in Memphis (not at psycho motel in Tunica) and went touring. When we got there on Sun. Pam and Claire watched Shrek 2 and I slept on the couch (drooling probably) then we went walking on Beale Street! You could tell who had lived in a city ( Pam is a Toronto native) Claire and I just clung to her like dryer sheets! We ate, went back to the hotel, and we had decided to watch a movie, then draw straws for who'd sleep in the bed vs the couch. We all fell asleep and slept in the bed. Mon we went on a Memphis tour, to the National Civil Right Mussee and to the Memphis Zoo! It was great! Mom was mad when I got home, but that is life right! Well, I'm going to go ride! tALK TO YA'LL LATER!

Hey guys, Does this ROCK or what?????? A RAIN DAY! I cannot believe it! I did barn work by flashlight this morning! HA!Gonna get all my homework done today!!!!!! Sound like a plan?? I think so! I hate school! It is pitiful how much. ANd ya know, school has taken over my life.... I do homework all the time, because I want good grades so I can ride, I don't get to ride because I'm doing homework. I still get really crap grades in Pre Cal. My other activities? Academic Team, that miserable putrid thing called more school! Then FFA, but often that is school too.That is based on the horses, but I have no time to ride! I'm kinda miserable about that, I have to admit! Although, I did do barn work in yellow rubber pants and a yellow rubber jacket, I looked like Captain January from the Shirley Temple movies! Ha! Hope everybody is dry and not flooded! Bye!

Hi guys! TThis week as been different I suppose. I started it with my break up with Todd on Tuesday. But were cool, and friends and all. I just have different interests. As Greg Bullington (Pam's husband) says, "you're divorced" HA! Then was state fair, where I'm pleased to say we got ninth out of 89 teams and I got diarrhea during the grading too! Not that you wanted to know that! There was some personality issues, but all in all a terrific trip.I love being a Kentuckian. Our state fair rocks! Cakes, rabbits, quilts, hogs, chickens, etc. well it rocks! Maybe you had to be there..... Oh on the Todd thing, I'm really happy, b/c Sarah isn't weird about it, so I hopefully will keep her as a student. Friday I found out about a bit of controversy, but I won't discuss it. Today there was issues but again, i"m not disscussing. Suffice it to say I'm irritated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But not with any of you guys!!!! I went to the Scottsvegas (HA) art show and it was fun! Claire was there and she makes me laugh! Here is a joke: How many blondes does it take to screw in  a light bulb? ---- 2 but they'll screw it in upside down...........................Okay, I thought it was funny! All this homework is making it hard to be peppy and happy? Agree?????!!!!!!! I'm not feeling like myself..... all the school weight (literal and figurative) is crushing me!!! I read the Crucible. Guys- Sparknotes, read em! They are RIGHT ON TARGET!! Oh by the way, My Prinz is lame, so I can't ride him... I could cry. Not that I have time to ride with 2 1/2 hrs of Pre cal (at least) to do!!!!!Well guys, talk to you monday!
