blaahg... I mean blog

I find the blogging requirement painful sometimes... as I'm sure do a lot of others. I am leaving for a few days so I have to blog now, and the inspiration has not struck me.
I have been doing something called running horses lately. I am running or being the handler for a few horses that my employers are taking for judging this week coming. Basically my job is to show off the horse to it's best advantage. I walk and run the horse around to show off to the judges. Hopefully the horse gets a good score and is then more desirable for breeding etc. Running in an arena full of loose dirt is really hard on the legs. More so because your controlling a horse with one hand and you've got a whip your supposed to hide in the other. It's strange to run without your arms doing what they always do. Well, it will all be over on the 5th and my legs can recover. Hoping to not injure myself somehow before then.
