A Note About This Blog

I used to be a writer. Unpublished, but a writer just the same. I have several 100,000 word novels sitting on my hard drive. Then I fell off a horse and got a concussion that scrambled my brains really good (yes, I was wearing a helmet.) After that forming a written sentence was very difficult for quite some time. It's still difficult, but at least now generally the sentence structure isn't egregiously flawed. Verbally and written wrong words pop in, I switch words around, and sometimes I make no sense at all. It isn't because I don't have knowledge of grammar and punctuation, but my brain simply can't do it sometimes. Reading this blog you're accepting that there's going to be things that look like typos or make no sense. It's not because I don't proofread, it's because my damaged brain doesn't see what's wrong. I try my best, but things will slip through. I don't need them pointed out, I know they're there, but if I continued to worry about them I wouldn't write at all. I didn't for quite some time. It's painful as a past master of words to use them so badly, but fortunately the words don't seem to mind.

That's how my brain has been for the last week.

As soon as I got back from the dressage show it was full speed ahead on the paper I had due the next Sunday. Which sounds like plenty of time, but Daniel Stewart was coming to town on the weekend, so I needed to have that paper done on Friday. I spent five solid days, nose to laptop, getting that sucker done. My prediction is I'll get a B on it. Not my best work, but it shouldn't be regarded as sucky.

Daniel Stewart was awesome, as he was last year. He was seriously pleased by how much my equitation has improved, and it has. I got through the clinic not doing a single situp. I have friends that did like 500. I was thinking so much about myself Banana wasn't looking that fabulous on the flat

Photographic evidence
Oh well.

After he left I have spent this week brain dead on the couch watching tv. The dogs have enjoyed the cuddling. Banana and I have been out for a couple of down the road trots as in two weeks we'll be in Las Cruces and it would be embarrassing if we couldn't get around the xc course with the 6" jumps.
