'ello again!

What is new with me? Well of course everyone already knows about the wonderful QH colt that I bought. I had to scratch the name 'Noah' b/c Mom thinks it sounds too much like 'woah' and 'no' ... anyways. Maybe Topher.. I really don't know. I'm just hoping something will pop in my head soon! I'm still calling him 'baby' for now! I should be sending in registration as early as next week.. but I still need to print out 4 photos of him to send along with it. A task that requires someone's help! I'm sure Gavin and I can get to that tomorrow, err later on today while were at the barn.

Other than that.. I've been spending time with Tony here and there. He is incredibly sweet to me ( yes, opens car doors and everything!! ) and I'm just playing things by ear. We don't necessarily talk every day but we usually see eachother a couple times a week. That's really nice for me b/c everyone who knows me knows that I love my freedom. He seems to be pretty understanding and needing of that as well. He works a lot and is in the beginnings of a 4 year bout in law school.... sooooooo....

for those of you who are curious..

He is on the right in this one... the left ( darker shirt ) is his baby brother.

Anyways, besides that I'm dreading the start of fall quarter. Jesus I can't wait to be through with college.. well.. sorta. I know that the real world is gonna suck even more.. but still! I've been spending pretty much all of my days at the barn. I love it there. It out in the country and SO quiet. And even though my arthritis is killin' me lately and I have a HORRIBLE cold setting in ( thanks to Gavin bringin over his school kid germs ).. I still seem to be relaxed when I go there. =) The family is doing well. Venus, Justin and baby Hayden were just in on Monday.. and Mom will be out next week to catch a flight to Bama. Then she'll stay a night with me when she returns, yay! Who gets excited about their Momma comin', right?

Speaking of my momma, she was just out here last week b/c MR ( we all know who that is ) decided he wanted to come over at 3-4 am after bar hopping. I wouldn't let him come in b/c I've been dating Tony ( who I met through MR ) and that coulda been the end of things between us. Plus, I know MR is no good for me. All my friends who I trust have the best judgement in the world haven't liked him.. and no one has met him. Pretty good indication that I should kick him to the curb. Plus, the mom kept tellin me it was silly to still be hooking up with him. His IQ is nonranking.. and I only date people long term who are intelligent. Oddly, Michael and I did our thing for 8-9 months.. blah. Anyways, he came over that night and ended up slashing my tires before he left. I called my mom.. she came out at midnight.. and we fixed my car by late the next evening. All I can say is revenge is sweet.. what goes around comes around asshole. Let's keep in mind all this happened JUST as I returned to Columbus from having surgery.

Oh, and surgery went well. I'm still bleeding from it.. which sucks. However, he said things looked promising. I won't go back until December.. b/c it takes that long to completely heal. We'll of course do another exam and he'll do a pap. I certainly hope that things turn out ok. This whole idea of possibly not being able to have kids is making me crazy. Even though having the neighbor kids over EVERYDAY.. griping they are hungry ( their parents work ) ... and having to yell at them for fussing with one another and watching tv instead of doing their homework.. has really made me rethink this kid thing, hah. Nah.. I do love them all to death. However, I do need my breaks. Which I haven't gotten in months now.

Alrighty.. it's 4 am and I'm going to try to sleep again. Not being able to breathe is so uncomfortable and I can not stay asleep.. ugh.

Love you all!
