| And years go by...Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some stubborn leaves
That didn't fall with the fall, and now they clatter in vain
Holiday sky. Midnight clear. Wind is high, hard to steer
Old muffler rumbles like an old fighter plane
In search of some rest. In search of a break
From a life of tests where something's always at stake
Where something's always so far
What about my broken car?
What about my life so far?
What about my dream?
What about.....
What about everything?
What about aeroplanes?
And what about ships that drank the sea?
What about...
What about the moon and stars?
What about soldier battle scars
And all the anger that they eat?
I am not in need.
Get away and come with me.
Come away with me and we'll see
If I was right on that night, that a future was made
Before time takes each year, like a knife cuts it clear
It's school, then work and then life that just sharpens the blade
I think about time for fun. I think about time for play
Then I think about being done, with no resume
With no one left to blame
What about fortune and fame?
What about your love to obtain?
What about the ring?
What about....
What about everything?
What about aeroplanes?
And what about ships that drank the sea?
What about...
What about the moon and stars? What about soldier battle scars
And all the anger that they eat?
I am not in need.
Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some reason me
The hometown harbor lights bright, the sailboats clatter in vain
Holiday sky. Midnight clear. Wind is high on this pier
I find it hard to complain when compared with what about...
What about everything?
What about aeroplanes?
And what about ships that drank the sea?
What about...
What about the moon and stars?
What about soldier battle scars
And all the anger that they eat?
What about...
What about aliens? What about you and me and...
What about gold beneath the sea?
What about...
What about when buildings fall?
What about that midnight phone call...
The one that wakes you from your peace?
Well, I am not, I am not, I am not in need.
(Carbon Leaf, "What About Everything") I had a sudden urge to revive this old piece of my life. And while I'm not up for filling in the space that has been the past two years since I wrote here, I thought I'd share these song lyrics because they are such fun, and by one of my newest favourite bands, Carbon Leaf. Check them out if you haven't already! Suffice it to say that: I am alive, I am well, and happy, and seeing God's hand in my life in many different ways. And I have three horses now instead of two. Who'da thunk...?  | | |
| Well. A close friend of mine just sent me an email saying she got a xanga, reminding me that I should update this lonely little corner of the web.
Mainly, my life right now consists of trimming cadaver hooves of dead horses as part of a 2-week Natural Barefoot Hoof Specialist course I'm taking. Once this 2-week training period is over, I'll have a 6-month apprenticeship (once a month checkup) to get through before I'm officially certified. It's pretty intense -- I've learned so much about that inside of a horse's foot that most people never realize. Shoes are so damaging, and now it makes so much sense that I cannot believe I didn't realize before. Anyways, don't get me started...
Unfortunately, because of this course, I won't be going to the Royal Winter Fair this year...*is a little heartbroken, but will get over it*
I'll update more later.... | | |

Can you tell he likes to swim?  | | |
| Ruckus threw me in our Light Hunter class yesterday. How very embarrassing. Did something to my knee, and my whole upper body feels like it's made of wood, but other than that we're all good. He gave me the most "oh my goodness, mummy, I am sooo sorry about that" look afterwards, the little sheep. *smacks*
Off to the annual family reunion this morning, so I'll catch you guys later. Have a wonderful Sunday. | | |
