Trying to get things going....

I am a bit of a go getter - I defo do not hang around and wait for someone to do something or wait for something to come to me.  I am a firm believer that if you want to do something you had better get off your butt and just go and get it done.  I don't like to stand around and "talk" about things to death, if you want to do it, just do it and stop talking about it.  Kinda gets on my nerves.

This is probably both a good thing and a bad thing.  Good because I just go and do stuff and get on with it and bad because I think it irritates those that would like to just stand around and talk about things, and not really get on with it.

I also don't like waiting around for other people to make their decision about if they are going to be involved in something or not.

Anyway, in other news - we have qualified for the Championships this year - which is nice - so Tee and I are headed to them in September.  We have a very busy September showing.  There are a bunch of shows we are going to never mind the Keuring Tour for Catalina - the other horse I have in training.  The Keuring Tour is a big event for the Dutch Warmbloods.  She is competing for her Dressage Certification - and the Iron Springs Cup.  So to say we are working hard at the moment is an understatement.....

My little boy really really wants to help at the barn - he is completely horse mad and it is both endearing and sweet and terrifying.  I have to make sure he is involved but out of harms way all the time and that is a very fine line and quite difficult to manage....but we do it.  He is very good at doing what he is told around the horses.....but he is never out of my sight....and safety ALWAYS comes first.

So off to the barn we go, for another training session......in the heat and the humidity......
