Hey y'all. This is probably my third attempt at keeping this blog active. I always promise to keep it going but then life gets in the way. But I make a good effort to keep up with it this time.
Man, so much has changed I have no clue where to begin.
I guess We can start by the Fact the I moved to Northern Ca with Robby (Fen my horse came along too!). He and I always talked about moving up here. Its simply beautiful and we wanted to start a new life together. So with the move and all I ended up quitting the dog kennel. The day I gave my two week notice I was so exited to finally be free! But my last day there was bitter sweet. Sweet because that job took all that I had to give and messed up my life at times. But bitter because I really did love what I did with the dogs, and I made some pretty cool friends there.
But I also left my family and friends. I hardly see much of my family very often except holidays. So that will not change at all. But my friends I saw nearly every day when I went to take care of my horse at the ranch. Friends that I have known my entire life. But they were all very supportive in me taking control of my life. Because for a while I had no idea where I was going in life. Now I have a fresh start and I am going to live life to the fullest!!
I came up here thinking that I was going to have a job at a ranch taking people on trail rides, giving lessons, and taking care of horses. Which would be my dream job. But those dreams were put on hold for a while due to the fact that the ranch owner was having some financial difficulties. So I ended up getting a job at a local Petco. I remember when I was living in Southern CA. I tried applying to Many different petcos and never got a answer out of them. The job market was horrible down there which was why I had to work at the kennel for so long. But here Petco was one of the first places I applied to and I got the job! I am going to be a sales associate and also they are going to pay me to go to dog training school So I can lead training classes there. So I am very exited about that.
Also with this are some changes I am making in my life for the better. I have dropped the ball with my weight loss and gained back about twenty five pounds. So starting pretty much now I am going to start living a more healthy life style. More exercise and I am actually going to use my weight watchers online account haha.
As many of you know, I have Fen. A wonderful special horse who has done so much for my life this past two years. Fen is getting up there in years, but is by no means old. He has a condition called "Ringbone" a degenerative bone disease in horse. Sometimes it flares up horrible and other times it’s silent. He has been in a lot of pain lately since I moved him. So I had a vet out. And this vet said he definitely had ringbone and it was pretty advanced...Back in LA I had three vets look at him, once was not sure what the lameness was, one diagnosed him with ringbone and the other said he is perfectly fine. So I just went with the vet that said he was fine..Well he is certainly not fine these days. And on top of that he broke a bone in his hoof called a coffin bone. So right now he is fighting two different things,...I am giving him a few days. But he is so miserable and I may have to send him over the rainbow bridge soon...
We have been staying with Robby's dad the past six weeks (us and all three of our lovely cats) and we finally move into our new apartment tomorrow...
So that’s all you get for now.
Hopefully better things happen soon...
