Church and horseback riding...

Yesterday was not a great day for me, therefore I did not feel much like writing. Today went much better. In the morning I went to church. It was really encouraging. Then, in the afternoon I picked up Clemy's friend, and a young girl and we all took turns riding the horse. She is a good horse, but I can tell she is testing us a little to see how much she can get away with. So, basically, if I win every time, she will get better each time. Time to spend with family, hope to write tomorrow. Sign in to see full entry.

I didn't ride her when we got back, but led her around the field so she could see where all the electric fence was. The lady I clean for suggested this. I got my exercise, cause the field is pretty big! Tuesday, I led Clemy and her friend around the field.... Sign in to see full entry.

Long Day

I am beat. Today was house-cleaning day (2 houses and 1 office). The good part is I didn't have to clean the other offices we do daily. I have a new client, a family, young mom, dad and 2 little kids. I met her at the Saturday market a few weeks ago. She was having a hard time finding anyone to clean for her because she had kids. I don't have a problem with that, so I will be cleaning her house every other week and maybe every week if it works out in my schedule. I'm trying to only clean houses... Sign in to see full entry.
