Sun Mon Thurs Sat September 2009 something


Sunday - When Moki and I took our walk this morning, there were more balloons all around. At one point, there was a big balloon right above us trying to gain altitude. The burner kept making this loud noise. Moki looked up at it, and with his most grown-up voice, gave the balloon a deep warning bark! It was so cute!

Monday - Went to more Plus lessons in Cortez, and then was an "angel" to one of the new guys who is learning mainstream. Angel, means that I was his partner. He really already knows most of the moves, which is pretty cool. There are three other people there who are just learning, so it's all an educational experience, though!

Thursday - This was the last day of therapeutic riding at Cadence. All of the people I've been working with have improved so much. Most everyone had two side-walkers to begin with, and now many of them ride almost completely on their own. It is so satisfying to see that. I came for the horses, and stayed for the people. What an incredibly gratifying experience it has been.

Today, when I went to renew the book I'm reading, _Sophie's World_, they wanted to give me my new library card. She said, "That's funny, your old card shouldn't have worked." Then she checked, and my old card and my new card had the same exact number. She said, "Wow, that NEVER happens. That is really amazing." Then another woman from the library came by, and she showed it to her. The other woman was shocked, too. They asked something about my life, and this must be a lucky sign. And I said, "My life has been pretty amazing lately, and I'm not surprised about this at all!"

Saturday - parade
Today was the non-motorized parade in Durango. One of the little boys I work with rode Magic, and I led him down the middle of the parade. It was a gas!
