Cowgirl at heart

The weekend has been a great one. My granddaughter and son came to the farm to stay all night. At four years old, Carly still thinks she wants to be a farmer when she grows up. She got to ride a horse this weekend and play on the computer so she was a busy camper. Lots of fun for Valentine's Day. As a little girl, I always wanted a horse. I have continued to want a horse even though I am afraid to learn to ride at my age. Carly begged her grandpa today to buy Grandma and her a horse. She said, "Grandma and I can be cowgirls - we really can, Grandpa."
I only have a fear that I cannot get myself up on a horse any more. They seem much higher off the ground then they used to. Maybe after I get muscle mass in better shape, I can lift myself up on a horse. Who knows?
Today was sunny and bright which made me think that spring was not far away. I can't wait until I can get outside this spring. I love my flowers and need to dosome major work in the garden area.
Well, I lost weight this week despite the fact that I had company for a visit. Little by little I am nearing a halfway point in my goals for myself. I am learning to get back in the "saddle" after I fall off my diet horse. I guess I can be a cowgirl afterall!! Ha!
