ladida's Journal (that you all want to read)

So I had my English final today...it was eww...blah. Then a soccer game. I was prepared to go the barn and just turnout Isabel (sorry Ash, I'm lazy). So I'm driving, driving along and I realize that the orange light that says there is only 1 gallon of gas left in the car goes on. I'm thinking...didn't I ask if there was gas before I left? My brain says.....yes. So I turn around and come home since I had passed the gas stations leading up to the freeway. Oh well I'm going out EARLY tomorrow before...

Its official...I'm lazy . I lunged Isabel on Fri...but she was a little revved up because she hadn't done much the entire week. She was still ok though.

Today we went and got the trailer after my soccer practice...my mom drove up earlier to get hay and shavings...

She was very good though. She fought the vienna reins for the first time today, but that is just because she flipped out a little and tried to run...

Today was my last day of freedom..... I went to the barn with my sister today with the intent of lungeing Isabel and then pampering her. When we get there her neighbor's owner comes out and asks us if she ever gets ridden, because she has never seen someone on her. We were like ***. Umm....we have almost never talked before, and she is cold we all have tried to start a convo with her and she kills it. So we replied with yes, all three of us...blah blah blah. So then so angry we went and...

So I went and rode! After babysitting I headed out. It has rained buckets over the past few days, and so it was muddy, but I went in the hardest arena, which was the one with a huge slant in it. I tried to do Isabel's tail in a mud knot, but it fell out! I know how to do a proper one that SHOULDN'T fall out! Oh well.

I warmed up doing circles in and circles out, she was being fairly calm. I then did some leg yielding in and out and the time walking around and noticing where...
