I learned naughty words today!!!!

So I think that everyone's blogs this evening will contain a little bit of "Cat!"

This morning we started off gathering at a barn up north before we went up onto the fields to work on the polo horses and Sara was asking us how we liked the Hoof Care Class yesterday!

We all said that it was really good... then Cat proceeded to enlighten all of us about another one of those CRAZY Australian phrases:

FIGJAM aka. Fuck I'm Good, Just Ask Me!!!!

I don't think we have burst our laughing that much as a class in the whole 3 1/2ish weeks we have been here!!! Thanks again Cat for another good morning laugh!!!

After we all dried our panties and picked ourselves up off the ground we headed off to the horses!

When we FINALLY got there... it was kind of a "road trip" to say the least... this was a very interesting morning!

We all went into the field and the horses were standing in a cluster on the other side of the field... we were all trying to decide weather or not we were going to be able to catch the horses without them running away. It was like a scene from a movie when they all came galloping up to us!

The horse I worked on first today was really gentle. In the beginning we had trouble getting together, she wasn't sure what I was trying to do and she was very concerned with the flies... she kept twitching at me like I was a fly! After a few minutes I was able to get her to calm and she was really soaking up the love and attention (as well as the massage of course!). She was a really well put together horse and we got along really well once she understood my intentions. When I worked on her neck she was very willing and accepting to what I was doing. I really enjoyed myself...










I think I am the luckiest person on earth (well, along with all of my classmates...)! My office is a large pasture with sun and grass and horses... how could it get any better than that!! I think I will somehow have to convince my human clients that it really is better outside!!! Maybe I will have to move my massage table outside...

I don't know that they would have the same thrill as me!

This is my class working!!! How amazing is that!

Today I was really excited because I finally started to feel really comfortable with the Psoas release/work in the hind end. Both horses I worked on really liked the work and I found that I was able to read what the horse was going to do and either go with them when they moved or release my hand so I wouldn't get kicked.

The second horse in particular... he was a really big (chubby) well put together, Sara and I think Morgan, horse. He was, as I called him in class - a Psoas Whore!!! He loved that part of the massage so much that when I would bring my hand/arm up between his legs he would step out right wide for me and just soak it all in! He was really fun to work on! Sorry, no pics of him...

Tonight Chelsea made us Pizza for dinner while I went and picked up some things at Safeway... oh my... we sound like an old married couple!!!!! Love you Kyle!!!!hehe
I had quite a bit of Anatomy homework this evening, but I think that I have finished it all now and that I am all caught up! Now all I have to finish is the stuff for Rick's class... a slow but steady process!

Have a great evening everyone... Love you all bunches. Thanks for all the letters, emails and everything!
