Uhooo, I miss riding horses Okay. I love being around them. I'm a sucker for their big soft noses and fuzzy ears. I love it when they stand behind you, snuggle in and hang their heads over your shoulder. I love to feel the power of their bodies once you saddle up. And nothin' will make the hairs on my arms and neck stand up like heaing them thundering through a pasture, especially when they are coming my way. I love to go to horse racing tracks, not to bet, but to stand by the 4th turn railing and watch them go flying by for the finish.
Another sunny hot day in the desert. It was a snap at the social security office yesterday. I really expect a waiting period of some length, but Sweetie and I walked in, sat down at a window, did my business and were gone in 15 minutes...amazing. Afterwards, we found the store I wanted to see...I was unimpressed...and then I took Sweetie out for a delicious hamburger. We were in North Phoenix and not an area that I was familiar with. Sweetie lived there long ago so we spent part of the afternoon driving around and taking in the sights. Great way to spend the day.
I have a dr's appointment this morning and then am meeting a friend for lunch. I told her she should pick out a place that has very comfortable seating because I think we're gonna be there for a long, long time.
Going to work on my cards and box over the weekend. The dust bunnies are beginning to show up, so that means I need to put some structure back into my life...if I don't start now, I'm afraid I'm gonna start developing a lazy attitude. Easy for me to do cause I keep feeling like I'm on summer vacation...well I am, but this ones gonna last a very long time
After seeing these mountains yesterday I put them on my hiking "next" list. But, I'll have to wait until Oct or Nov to do it. Way too hot for me now
