Catch up Post


I haven’t posted in like forever! Things have been so hectic...
Been so busy, this weekend was packed! Friday night I moved house.  Saturday was at the stables most of the day and moved the last stuff from my house, then Saturday Night was the 1925 live concert at Old MK’s Unplugged(sounds cooler than Lietjieboer). Hehe, It was loads of fun, met some awesome people! Then Sunday night Nico came over for a braai and we walked around the plot aimlessly looking at the stars, it was a really good night. I had drinks with my boys on Monday night always a great time with my Rob and Nico. Tuesday night was Drinks at the stables with the girls(Sharla and Megs) and then on to Casa Divinci for dinner. Wednesday was stuck in my bed thanks to Panache and then last night had Stants over for dinner at home.  See, been really busy!!

I moved back to my old house in Midrand and pretty much the deal with the new house fell through... So I now have to introduce my two dogs, Amber and Rocky, they have been fine on leads together on walks,  but not on their home territory. Now I’m moving Amber into Rocky’s domain... Rocky is pretty chilled so I’m hoping all goes well! That’s next weekend’s problem though.

So, Crystal and I have made the waistcoats and scarves this week as well for our team for the Diamond X show! Our name is Team Goodnight and colour is green. Charles Goodnight being our chosen cowboy, we decided to make everything a bright green, which is my favourite colour... The waistcoats are black and have a green inside, tassels from halfway down with a green G on the back. The scarves are green with each team member’s name and ‘GNITE’, Just to add a little funk. It took Crystal and I AGES to paint them, cut out design, measure everyone, and then stitch it all together!  I will post the team photos of our costumes after Sunday. We have a little secret though, that no one else has... WE HAVE JADEN!  Jaden is Crystal’s little cousin, the cutest little mascot ever, and she is dressed just like us!

Work is killing me! I have so much that I need to get done and don’t know where to start, Hope my boss is not reading this post... *face palm* Couldn’t work yesterday cause I couldn’t walk. Panache decided that she wanted to kick Romeo and I was in the way, Two double barrels, one to my leg and hip and the other just an inch from my head. Pretty scary at the time, she really needs to stop the whole kicking thing she does! My groom, Charles came to me afterwards and expressed how she almost kicked off my head. Happy days! What horses put us through, I swear, but we will go back and love them! Always!  <3

So we have finalised plans for the USA I am super excited!! With the house etc, not really going through I’ve been moved to the top of the list... Got the ticket for the 24th of April, will be going to get my Visa on Monday! Exciting stuff. My flight takes off from O R Tambo International headed for London Heathrow airport, I have a 5hour stop over there, then from there to San Francisco! Where there is a 2,5hour drive to the farm in Milton. It’s a long trip, but I’m not worried at all.
Stay excellent!
