Oh look, another blog post where I talk about all the riding I’m not doing. UGH. New job is fantastic/amazing/wonderful, but to say I got tossed into the deep end and told, “SWIM” would be an understatement. No easy going orientation week here, more like 10 hour days from Day 1 and a huge project to complete. My brain and body are in a minor state of shock going from casual everyday life to wake up at 5:30am, home at 6pm, bed by 9:30pm.
That to say, riding has not happened. Barn has not happened. Anything other than work, shower, food, sleep has not happened. My bedroom light bulb is out – haven’t replaced it. Wore two different earrings to work yesterday. Ate cereal for dinner on Wednesday. Ply the dog with peanut butter. This is now my life.
Add to that 6-8″ of snow expected tomorrow and highs all weekend in the low teens and I’m pretty much just done with all of it. I’m off Monday (YES SLEEP) but it’s supposed to be like, 10 degrees, no exaggeration.
Wake me up when January ends? Until then, I’ll be over here in sweaters, not seeing daylight and up to my ears in Excel PivotTables.

the daylight time is getting longer. Hang in there. With this crappy weather you are not missing much.
Ugh, worst! I hope the new job calms itself down and you get some pony time in!
Aw man, that stinks! Hopefully, things will settle down for you soon. At least this is the worst time of year to ride anyway, Hang in there!
I have a laundry basket full of lovely clean clothes sitting in my room…it’s been there for weeks. Too busy to deal.
I hope things simmer down a bit for you soon!! Stay warm
Ugh, thats all rough! But, it’ll all get better! Especially the daylight 🙂
Blegh sorry work life is so hectic- I hope you find some time to carve out to ride and gain your sanity and maybe get some more sleep !
