First of all, sorry for the lack of blogosphere activity, crazy busy here. I've been reading but not commenting, mostly because I've only had time to read on my phone.
Anyway, big changes coming to Gali and me in the next month, but I'm not going to say more until I know more.
Gali got his feet trimmed early Saturday morning, but I had to head home before I got a chance to ride. I did get to spend some time grooming him and he's shedding out so nicely. It makes me happy, because I am fairly certain there will be a time when he doesn't shed out so well and is a cushings horse, and since he's turning 16 this year, every winter that I get a good shed, I appreciate.
I had no time to ride Sunday or Monday before I drove back out to school, and have been swamped with work for school this week, so I don't think I'll have a chance to ride until Friday. I'm disappointed by the fact that I seem to have no time to ride when I'm at Rutgers, but I know that'll change this summer, and I'll be at the barn nearly every day.
In other news, since I've been at Rutgers I've been looking for ways to stay fit without killing my knees. When I'm home I have the barn - but here, it seemed I was limited to machines, which give me a good workout but leave me in pain for days afterwards. Last night I overcame my "I don't know what I'm doing here!" anxiety and swam laps at one of the school's pools, and I've found my solution! I didn't look too ridiculous among the swimmers, with their fancy caps and fancy not-needing-to-breathe, and really enjoyed the workout. I'm not sore today, but I am exhausted, and I look forward to swimming more as the weather gets warmer.
