I watched the series finale of the Sopranos. What a disappointment. Sigh.

The finale that I am glad I stayed up for was Big Love. I am still cracking up over the toe tag scrawled in little kid writing that said “Drank Antifreeze”. LMAO.

Also watched the Break Up with Vince and Jen. Sigh. I thought the premise might be funny ala Wedding Crashers but it wasn’t. Nor was it dramatic. So I wouldn’t recommend it.

Well it’s back to work. Sigh. I’m afraid of what I am coming into. My day will be extreme tomorrow.

I thought I would mention too that on Saturday I had all kinds of people call me and wish me a Happy Birthday. Thanks Guys! My phone rang all day.

It was very very lovely.

Had great company and I laughed the whole night.

I’m recovering this morning.

I have alot of pics and I will have to DL them and crop / photoshop and stick them in the gallery.

Update: Here’s the link: Crystals 31^st birthday

BTW, in the last picture, that isn’t my bra that is showing. My dress has a lining that kept creeping up. I like it, but I think it looks better in person than it photographed.

Anyways, here are my two faves.

today was very yay. Went and rode. Mere helped me tremendously today. We jumped around pretty well. I didn’t overjump because I wanted to save something for tomorrow.

Here is my best shot. Although it’s a second too early, we still are wayyy cute!

Here is a 2nd shot. It looks good as well but my leg is pretty far back. It needs to be more under me. oh well.

So now I’m going to shower, and get ready to go out with Scotty. It won’t be a late night cause I am riding early tomorrow.

Update - Had a good time with Scott. We just went out to Mexican to eat dinner and have some margaritas. Which u would think that I would be tired of after the 20 I had in Mexico. It was good times. Scott makes me laugh, often at my expense. :-)

so today was supposed to be an easy day for me cause I’m still off of work. I went in briefly to put out a Poland fire but I was done by 9.

However, God did not have plans for me to take it easy today.

Of course this is a public blog that my sister and the barn kids read so I won’t go into details. Needless to say, things did not go my way. I”m still worked up and upset so I’m planning on hitting the bed early. Tomorrow has to be better.

I did ride Cook today and she was ok. She was well behaved, but she kept swapping her lead in the corner by the house. Emily said that she was doing it with her when she rode while I was away. Weird. We jumped around and although she was good, she felt off so I didn’t push it. I’m hoping that since I have been away it’s just that she has to get her (and my) rhythm back. Tomorrow is looking like rain, so the odds of me riding are slim. So on Saturday I will ride and see how she is. I don’t think she’s back sore, but she just seems slightly off.

A friend I shall not name is having a difficult time right now (crappy days must be going around). Please remember that I LOVE you to DEATH, and I will always be here for you. Always.
