finishing class, lame horse, horse show and a test

My title for this post is long but sums up what the last week was like. And the week's events actually started months ago. When about the same time I started putting things in motion to get licensed to drive a commercial truck. (cdl) and Devin and I started making sure the show horses got in shape ready for the show season.

Monday was good,  it was the last week of training for me at Rivertown CDL Aacademy and I was excited and nervous about taking the state skills test. By Wed Keyaana was lame, thus potentially ruining a chance Devin would have to ride her at a show. This was killer news as I received it while coming home from a defensive driving class in Marshal MI. Everything that we had done last winter had May 14 in mind and then not to be able to show the mare was devastating after all that hard, but that is the name of the game.

As the girls where getting ready for the show with or without Keyaana. I was starting to feel the pressure of taking my skills test. By Friday afternoon the horses including Keyaana where in the trailer and heading to Hudsonville for the  night and I was making plans to take my cdl test on Saturday.

Then Saturmorning as the girls where prepping one last time for the show  I was heading to G.R. to take my test. I ended up passing my test, then I grabbed Burger King and made it to the show just in time to see Devin and Leydia walk in Th's show ring for there class.  I couldn't have planed it  any better.

The girls did a good and everyone placed and I was making thoughts about my future.

Now it's off to get a job.
