Was going to wait for the new year but I am full now! After nearly 4 weeks off work to tend to family issues followed by Christmas I gave in and behaved any way I wanted to. Not even getting on the scale until next week when I have gone back to work and started back on Jenny Craig. It is what it is. I ate and I shopped. I also walked the dogs more, cleaned my house like crazy and I wish there was one more thing I could write here to follow the comedy rules of 3 but there is not it is just those 2 things.
Literally a Dr's appointment every day in fact going to another today. Stress and the need to make the world a better place with buttered pop corn and movies. One the note of being an active Mommy I am one step closer to making the horse dream real. I actually had to see a girl about a horse. We met 2 hours and talked and talked. She stressed it could take several years to find a horse that they could accept into their program. It is a program for disabled folks the horse literally has to not care if the autistic kid has a seizure while riding. She called it "bomb proof" I went home ready to start my crusade of horse shopping. I had a list of strict criteria and literally the first horse I looked at had every trait they seek. His name is Zebs Dream Weaver. I gave the info to the BOK ranch and they said I did very well and said I should got to Vegas as I was lucky. I do not know if I am lucky or obsessive. To prove that point, I eagerly awaited them to call with the next step. Instead I got "they have not called he is probably off the market keep trying" Hell no! I called the horse people literally from the Interventional Radiology room while awaiting to do the "time out" with the surgeon before my daughter was having a procedure. I was in there with the OR crew and my daughter on the table and said "do you mid if I make a call?" I was on the phone with the Horse lady when the Doctor walked in a bit wide eyed. " Hello??? he said" I was like " Is Zebs Deram Weaver still on the market?... hold on Dr I have to talk to a lady about a horse..." She said "Yes" I said "call you right back" and looked up as the entire OR team was staring at me with amazed looks on their faces. I guess I had just kept a rather of an asshole Dr waiting. I think the team liked it. My kid just wanted to hear about the horse too! It was pretty funny. Anyhow my next call was to the Ranch saying call them!!! He is still available. !!! Now awaiting ranch to see Zebs and if they will let him do a 30 day trail at the BOK ranch. Keeping finger crossed. In the mean time had a garage sale to earn horse money need 4k ish and made $700. Jack assures me it will not be a problem. remember they pay for everything in taking care of a horse in exchange for using it in lessons. You buy the horse and get to ride it around the riding schedule. What this means is that I will need real riding boots not fashion riding boots!! Did I mention the horse thing comes with a membership to the Horse Park at Wooddside? Yes it does.
So with an active lifestyle in our future and the wishes and dreams we think about every new year I am once again hopefull that we will have a healthy life style together as a family.
