Been home now since mid-August and I've mainly been playing with horses and working on our relationship issues. (not to mention causing a few more along the way!) We'll get through it. One way or the other, though I want desperately to be strong and stay together. Who knows if I can change my view of marriage from one of "one foot out the door" to "all in all the time"? I'm working on it. I think it's key.

Aside from the relationship issues that wax and wane, I've been playing with and riding my horse Maya. We're learning more and more about Parelli toether from our instructor. I'm so lucky to have her in the area and have her willing to let me work for clinic/study group participation. So far I'm getting the better end of the deal, but I have a few ideas of how to even things up and pay her back for all of the knowledge and help she's provided.

This month is dedicated to beginning Start Smart - a local Community Futures program that has me writing my business plan in 7 weeks with support, business courses and action plans. All things I need to motivate me. Though here I am sitting at my computer and not working on that!! It officially begins tomorrow, so that's my excuse. Pottery business, hopefully, here I come. I wonder what I will have to change in my way of thinking about this to get it done? We'll see.

Still... time to get off my butt and head to town - or is it? I think the chickens can wait until Monday for food. Then Matthew and I can go shopping together.

Too haircut for ya? Well... I do need one.
