My Secret Life: What say you? That is the question.

Well its been quite a while hasn't it? 

Sorry for not blogging sooner, I left ya hanging about my vacation hah. :) 
But yeah, it was fun! And now I'm back... and its been a few weeks. haha. I added a MixPod just a few minutes ago on the sidebar on this blog, so check it out if ya want to, its got a few of my favorite songs on there so yeah...
Well, I guess the good news I have for ya is that I'm doing amazingly at horseback FINALLY. =D
My official fave horse at FOD is now Tipper! He's so much fun to ride and I love him to death! And he's so pretty too. =D
 Ain't he pretty? =] He's my baby. <3 
 We did so good on Wednesday! I was so proud of me and him that we actually kept up a GREAT lope throughout the lesson when Corrie told us to pick up one.
I still have my seat to work on, but every single week I'm improving so greatly. =D 
Last week was SUCH an immense improvement I was quietly thanking God a million trillion times for guiding me along into improving my riding skills!
And and! I bridled him by myself without anybody's help!! =D Which was just fabulous!
He gave me some crap at first and I meant to smack him for throwing his head up, but I barked at him and he listened immediately. Its amazing what a little authority and firmness in your voice can do to make a horse listen ;) lol.
Especially because they are about 5x a human's size and weight! Tipper could kill me if he wanted to, but for some reason that doesn't bother me. Its so weird, I think about it when I'm home not at the ranch, and I realize how funny it is that I'm SO comfortable around horses. They are really big and can hurt me mortally or just kill me if they wanted to.
I don't even think twice when I approach a horse, unless its being a crazy angry horse. Corrie's taught me well in the art of being around horses. =) And my mom too, but I can go up to pretty much any horse and talk in a soft voice and they just look at me, sniff my hand and then let me pet them haha.
So yeah I'm really looking forward to next week's lesson. =D I just hope I can start working there asap, I know its a couple years but hey, that is my dream job after all. ;) 
Well right now I'm kind of blanking on what I want to write about now... but! I guess I can show you a little blurb of a book idea I had and I'm going to write. =D It's called Cursed, its my version of the classic tale "Beauty and The Beast"... well... the Disney version I guess.
Its gonna be fun writing it, and plus I'm also editing TWW. Which should be AWESOME to read after I'm completely finished! Here's the little intro.

Bella Casey, almost eighteen years old, has just graduated from the top riding boarding school in the United States. Graduated top in her class and several scholarship offers to great Equine colleges around the U.S., and she finally gets to go back to her home and focus on her amazing family, and finally get to see the Casey family’s brand new ranch in her hometown of Hamilton, Montana.
After finally getting back to her new home with her family, and reuniting with old friends and facing her old stalker Ethan Myers, her friends tell her some really strange things about the part of Hamilton she’s living in. They tell her that there was supposedly an old estate there which lived the richest people in Montana for many generations, until six years ago when the eldest son living in the house had a terrible accident and then his family just left without a word and abandoned their home and their son.
Bella doesn’t believe any of it, until she was taking a ride in the late evening when she found an old dirt road with overgrown trees and brush. And then the wolves found her, and chased her farther down the road. Her horse bolted and bucked her off, after chasing her horse down, she came upon an old estate. She knew she should take shelter, so she tried to find the person that lived there.
But instead of shelter, she came face to face with a living nightmare, a horrible beast, the same rumor that she didn’t believe. Imprisoned and locked away, Bella loses all hope of ever getting out.
Unless she could somehow soften her captor’s heart, she may never see life outside the walls that imprison her; or her family again.

So, whatya think? I actually don't have a lot of it finished. I barely started this little backstory of the beast's character, it's gonna be real interesting to see how this turns out. Its kind of a modern twist I suppose, not so medievelish. 
Well ttyl! I'll try to blog sooner than 2 weeks from now haha.
