True I used to arrange for ppl to sort out and lend each other what they needed when someone was in a bind. I have lent coats and such too before! PPl have lent me chaps, cowboy hats, TACK, LOL etc...

Thats too bad you dont get to go....and u r trying for a job...good luck with that, just keep looking. I remember applying what seemed like everywhere before I got a job in HS, but I did get one eventually (pizza place...lol) to support my horsey habit (and the gas in the car to get there).

I'm sorry! That stinks. I know how you feel. One time I was souposed to ride my old (from like YEARS ago..) instructors horse, and we called to confurm it, and he never called back so I couldn't go.

Aw im sorry to hear that...

Thats what i was wondering too, is there any way you could work around the house, or get a job?

[JumpsxGlory]

Well, I can only work on weekends because of school so even if I did get a job, I couldn't get money in time. I need to find a way though.... I really don't want to miss my show...

[willeys bonanza]

why dont you try babysitting? or (depending where you live) cut peoples grass. charge $20 a yard in two days you could have $120 dollars for cutting 3 yards a day. i hope you find some way to go. there will always be shows to go to. keep you rhead up.

I would babysit but I'm not the biggest fan of kids. I wouldn't be a good babysitter. lol. It's winter still here so no grass to cut and no snow to shovel because it's all shoveled.

I'm sorry that couldnt work out. Maybe you could find a way to raise some $$$

Ditto, I'm a bad babysitter.
Do you think anyone at your barn would loan the $$ you need? Then you could work for them with their horse(s) to pay them back.

I would feel horrible barrowing money from anyone at the barn. I'm not that close with anyone there anyways.

This is everything I need and the costs for all of it.

Show gloves- $29.99
Breeches- $49.99
Hunt Coat- $62.99
Hair Net- $9.99
Show Hat- $89.95
Clippers- $46.99
Hoof Dressing (clear and black)- $9.99 each
Application Brush- $1.49
Shapley's MTG- $11.95
Trailering/show costs- $120.00

I have $230.00 but I just gathered some video games together and took those up to a place called "GameStop" and sold them there and I got $26.48 so now I have $256.48. I need $186.52 more. I have no idea what I'm going to do.... I might take the MTG off though because it's a week before the show and I'll only be able to use it once since it's so greasy.... Do you think I should?
