Sunshower is HOME. The guy texted just a couple days after he took her, said she crow hopped and his daughter is scared of her now. So I went and got her, brought her home. I'll never do anything like that again.
I took Teri with me, we drove up to Port Townsend & rode on the ferry to Whidbey Island, found our girl and drove home through Seattle. It was a fun ride, exciting to bring her home. Felt like we were on a rescue mission.

Dinner Out
Last Friday evening I had dinner with some of my triathlon lady friends, Suzie, Windy, June, Linda & Terry. They are a great group of ladies and we are all good friends. June started Triathlon in 2008, Linda, Suzie, me & Terry started in 2009 & Windy in 2010. All of us did Danskin Seattle as our first race and we're all Kitsap TriBabes.
All of them are still in it and after seeing their gorgeous sexy bodies, I'm all over doing it again myself. But not this year, not seriously. I'm still not in the EXERCISE EVERY FUCKING DAY mode. I am still in the I don't give a fuck if I get kinda fat stage of my life. Ironman training last year kicked my ass.
So we ate tasty food (shish ka bobs), watched a movie (Despicable Me 2) and soaked in the tub (hot tub, that is). We all had a fun time catching up with each other even though they actually get together with each other quite often & I'm rarely there. But it was an enjoyable evening.

When we make mistakes
I made a terrible mistake last Saturday. I let someone from Oak Harbor take my mare. This guy said he needed a step up pony for his daughter to use for 4H so I told him about Sunshower. They came to see her, he rode her, the daughter rode her (pony ride) and they liked her.
Sunshower didn't like them so much, she crow hopped when he rode her. But we figured it might be his weight.
Whatever, I made the mistake of letting him TAKE MY MARE AWAY. To lease, not sold.
How fucking stupid that was.
Look at her face when I tied her in his trailer right before he drove away with her. She's like,
And then the asshole posts on FB that they really like 'SUNNY'. Fucktard. I TOLD him her name. Don't be lazy and use a name that isn't hers. Fucker.
So today I get a text from him, she crow hopped with his daughter riding so he's going to bring her back home Saturday. Bullshit. I'm going to go get her Thursday.
I'll NEVER do anything this stupid ever again.
I made myself physically ill Saturday afternoon and cried myself to sleep that night, then Sunday I had a hell of a day at work, crying because of it. I wanted to just call and tell him I'd be there at 6pm to bring her back home but Lan said I needed to give them a chance. that the little girl needed a chance to get to know her.
I won't have to worry about that now. I'll see if I can find a young lady around here that would like to do an in-barn lease. Then I can monitor her care and everything and she would have a girl of her own. I've put out feelers.
It will cost at least $50 for the fuel if I go get her, money I don't have sitting in the truck already. It's about 160 miles round trip to where she's at.
But I can't wait to have my girl back home.
