Jeanie, I love your interpretation of my dream!

Thanks, AD, for the compliment . Sammy's beautiful. He can be a bit (well, a lot) of a stubborn mule when he wants to be, but then he's also a sweetheart. Like tonight. I rode him for my 45 min practice session, and he was awesome. He just wanted to GO!, much to my frustration sometimes. I'm not cantering yet, and he was dying to just go and let off some steam. He can be stubborn, but it was so fun. I came home so happy and refreshed, even though it certainly wasn't the greatest ride in the world, I'm way out of practice, but it was fun, and it was work, and for that hour and a half, I couldn't focus on anything else but me and him, and making sure he was groomed, (he's getting his winter coat!!! It's so fuzzy; I love it!!) and saddled correctly, and the bit was comfortable in his mouth, and me telling him what I wanted him to do and where I wanted him to go without saying a word. Work, school, laundry, and piles of paper and mail were a million miles away. It's heaven.

Although, now I'm really filthy. We kicked up a LOT of dust, and I haven't showered yet.

Work was really really really bad. Just because I'm only going to be there for another week, two at most (hopefully one of these job things comes through quickly), and it's starting to kick in, and I had a really really bad day, sales-wise, and I'm trying really hard to not let it matter, because it doesn't; but I've spent two years with it mattering, so it's hard. I'm really happy, and yet really sad and a little scared. I don't know how I'm going to tell the girls I hang out with all the time that I'm quitting. And I know they are SO going to be screwed during Christmas. Our Fearless Leader decided to take a week and a half vacation this month, and we're hiring four new people next week along with the two that we hired a couple of weeks ago, so she won't be able to train them until the week before we start getting really busy, the last week of this month. Good luck to them all, and I am SO glad I won't be there.

I finished my calendar thing for my classes, and it is SO much better to look at it and see everything laid out as to when things are due.

I'm hungry right now, but I'm also tired. I don't know if I should grab something to eat. I really want chocolate...

I still have a ton of stuff to do, but thanks to a very wise person, I am no longer sobbing hysterically over my laptop wondering how I'm going to get it all done.

Things are looking up.

I work tomorrow, but we're only half as busy and the Fearless Leader will be spending the entire day doing interviews which I booked for her. Oh, and by the way, to all those who apply for jobs. If the email on your resume reads "istabbitchesforless@....", or if I call you and your wife hangs up without asking who I am, and then calls back to find out and says she has the wrong #, I'm not even going to call you for an interview. Maybe I'm wrong. But hey, I'm just the MOD and nobody told me any differently....
