Rain, Rain....and More Rain

Today is a very rainy North West day.  Husband is sick, one kid still in recovery, so no church for us today.  I miss church and don't like it much when we don't go.  But after having my man gone for a week, even though he is feeling crummy... I love having these rainy days to snuggle with him and watch movies on the couch.  Can't complain.

I can hear the rain pouring down on the roof of our house, and all I can think is...I am just so happy I got 4 full days of endurance conditioning in last week.  Super happy to let my pretty pony have 3 full days off for recovery.  I need recovery too, we both are getting into shape. 

For the 10 day forecast, it says Wednesday and Thursday are rainy.  So, for sure Wednesday I will have to ride in it.  It's okay, I can't complain.  Thursday, if I don't have a lesson, I will see if I can practice what I have learned last week in the arena, I have been trying to put it into good use on the trails...there just isn't a whole lot of balancing in circles out there...yah know? Then it says that Friday and Saturday are cloudy.  Yay!  It's still pretty out on the trails even when it is cloudy.  Maybe my friend Muree will be brave and ride in the rain.  I think she is nearly the only trail girl I know that does that, she has more trail riding grit than I do.  I'd like to think I do, but I throw myself a good temper tantrum before biting the bullet and getting a job done.  Gonna work on my attitude this year. :-)


Hope your Sunday was as cozy as mine.  I made my family lentils with chopped ham and cornbread muffins for dinner today.  It was a perfect ending to our rainy Sunday.
