Life's Been Busy

Howdy! Finally I'm back. Been awhile.

We finished up our volunteer days with Horses for the Spirit. That was alot of fun. The girls were great! We are looking forward to helping out again next fall. It will be different girls, (we will miss the ones we already met and got to know a little about), but we will enjoy meeting new ones and introducing them to horses and natural horsemanship.

We attended the Parelli Celebration here in Reno. Three very full days of good horse stuff. We learned alot and can't wait to get back out and play with our horses. I also now need to save up my pennies to purchase some of their new stuff. Isn't that the way? Just when you think there can't be anything else, they come out with new, very interesting stuff. Oh, well.

Got finished with the book I was typing for a guy I know. He is plenty excited about getting it published. Hope it all works out well for him. He has worked on this a long time. Took him alot of research time and just studying about grammar and spelling and then the writes and rewrites. My own books were no where near as complicated. By the way, just got a message from my publisher, my book, "Jasmine's Secret", has been put in Amazon.com. Sounds kind of impressive, but with the price they are asking I really don't think it will improve my sales. Guess that makes me an official published author though. I don't really know how to feel about that.

The down side, I go back to the office on June 1. Yuck! I've been very spoiled working at home. Guess if my leg and shoulder are well enough to play with horses (still very cautiously), I am well enough to drive into work. Drove in halfway on Tuesday. My leg wasn't real happy, but feels like it will survive. I tried to bribe the Doctor to say it wasn't ready, but he wouldn't go for it. It will all be okay. Seems to be some drama going on their right now, so could be interesting. I just need to stay out of it. Sometimes that is hard to do, but I have to.

Okay, back to work time. I have some stuff to do before disconnecting my computer and getting it ready to be moved.
