I had such a great birthday yesterday!
Everything went perfectly.
I took the day off work.
The entirety of my Parelli Natural Horsemanship Partnership program was delivered. (no, it's not an Amway kind of thing, it's a horse training thing).
I went to the barn and spent a full 3 hours with Petey my wonderful, yet problematical horse.
My vet, a fantastic women, Jeannie Hauser, came and gave both of my guys their spring shots.
I took Willie out for a 2 hour trail ride.
John got home from work at a decent hour.
Andy came home from college for the weekend.
I fixed a wonderful Prime Rib Roast (diet be damned!).
Some of you may wonder why that is a perfect day for me. To understand, you really have to be a horse lover. My job has taken me away from home so much that I have not even seen my horses since November - John has been taking care of them for me.
Spending time grooming and playing with and riding my horses is like heaven to me. If I ever won the lottery, I'd spend at least 5 or 6 hours every day with Willie and Petey.
If you are not a horselover, you won't understand why I so enjoyed the day.

I've never had the honor of having horses, but your enjoyment of your day makes perfect sense to me. I'm glad you had such a great birthday! I wish for many more days like that for both you and John!

Happy Belated Birthday, doll!
I hereby dedicate today's ride on Haji to you.
And, it looks like I'll have to do it again tomorrow just so that you know for certain I was thinking of you in a birthday-ish way.
