Not quitting!



Been a long few weeks.  I feel like they all just disappeared.  I worked and slept and that's about all.  I am starting to feel a little bit of a monetary cramp as I have been feeding hay and both mares have been losing weight fantastically- but I have yet to break my normal 278-285 range.  I bounce between all of it.  I actually tried the Apple Cider Vinegar with honey in water today and almost gagged.  I think it's the smell actually.  I have finally gotten my sinus' clear and even with a cold right now they are staying pretty clear.  Granted I am taking a crap load of pills which was what I wanted to avoid in the first place but I am hoping that if I can hold myself at all these pills I can eventually drop the Zyrtec.  I take one of the doTerra vitamins(supposed to take 4 daily), a milk thistle, my HBP pill, a Zyrtec and a L-Lysine tablet all at lunch.  Both Milk Thistle and L-Lysine are both supposed to help with weightloss but the L-Lysine is an immune supporter and Milk Thistle is a liver/kidney booster and de-tox.  So I am totally ready to kick some butt and see how this goes this coming week with all of these pills on board and with the Southern Lights 5K coming up on Thursday it would be totally awesome I hope.  I may not be able to run much of it at all because my foot is acting up and is stupid sore again.  This time it's bruising mildly.  But I don't want to think about things so negative.  

I haven't started doing much work with Willow, we have just been enjoying as much time outside as the weather has allowed.  For the most part I try not to get her so muddy being outside and running around but she loves it so much. I am trying to keep her feet trimmed up so that she tracks as little mud as possible.  I think she will come with me to the 5K I think she will like it, even if I have to leave her in the car while I am on coarse.  I loving the time I spend with her and the less time I have spent on Facebook.  I'm quite content other than my time that I have spent with my horses.  It has been so flipping wet out there in the pasture, it's just a mud pit again.  I hope the rain quits for a while and the ground can dry out so I can at least get the girls working on the lunge line again and do something.  I want to get out and ride again but I do have to wait some on losing some weight.  So does having lessons.  



I need to get something coming now together.  I've thought of trying to do Halter and Showmanship with Tessa but now I've lost all confidence in my ability to do anything with them.  I am hopeful that my confidence will come back as I start working with them (if it will quit raining that is!). 
I skipped out on the rabbit show today, I just plum didn't want to go.  My rabbits are not ready at all to go up against the other big breeders.  I got the two new does in and I need to get them bred out for some spring babies but I also am scared to breed them as it has turned cold already.  Time for sleep, I have morning clinic tomorrow then it'll be run home and get laundry going, plus clean rabbit cages.  So many things I want to do, need to do and so on.  Time to do something!  Sleep first and go from there.
