Sadness, Excitement and Drama All Rolled into One!

Dear Reader,

I have some sad news. This week we will be putting down the old pony we have on the property that was abandoned and we resumed ownership of. Her name is Promi, short for Promises. She currently goes out with another horse of mine but we have integrated our little white devil Casper with that horse so that he doesn’t go bananas when Promi doesn’t come back. Over the years Promi has had her ups and downs, she’s been quite sick a few times, actually to the point of the drs saying there was no hope. Not Promi though, she came back with fighting style and got better every time. My dad and I believe that Promi is probably about 47 or 48 years old which is amazing for a pony/horse. In her hay day Promi was an excellent show pony and was very peppy and a crowd pleaser to say the least. Promi will be being put down when I am away in Kingston visiting my friend. I know that Promi knows she is loved by the family(my family) taking care of her and she will never be forgotten. She has lost a fair amount of weight and has fallen down several times, marking her sensitive skin with cuts and bruises. To make her go through the winter would be like making her suffer. We have chosen to put her down so that she is at least happy before she goes. She was here when the grass was a bright green in the spring and she has been outside enjoying the pleasant weather. Promi you will always be in our hearts.

Tomorrow is the day before the horse show in Sunderland that my student Kimmy will be going to with our horse Avis. We have worked really hard and even if we don’t get a ribbon I feel confident saying that we are ready for this show. Kimmy has been working with Avis for the last 2 months and they have quickly developed a strong bond, common between that of a horse and rider team that have been working together for years. Tomorrow is going to be a really busy day to say the least, when tomorrow is over I will be glad. Wednesday is show day and then after that I am heading to my friend Meg’s in Kingston to play 5th wheel in her little family. Good luck Kimmy and Avis, you’ve worked really hard and earned it!

THE HILLS

Well the Hills was sure interesting tonight folks. Things happened that were not expected. There was backstabbing and reuniting which were both surprises. The characters that involved those actions were interesting. Spencer really isn’t in the show much so you don’t get to see him trying to grow his fair haired mustache which looks kind of odd. Another player that was missing was Brody…where were you this episode mister?

Re Cap
- Elodie, Heidi’s co-worker, tells Heidi that she wants to go for this new position opening up at Bolthouse. Heidi asks Elodie if she was hired just before she was and Elodie says yeah like a year before.
- Lauren gets and assignment from Whitney, this is the first time we see Whitney take some boss action
- Lauren tells Whitney that she got a call from Jason, this makes her feel weird
- Heidi goes home after work and tells Spencer that there is the new position opening up at Bolthouse, Spencer says that she deserves it most out of everyone.
- Lauren and Audrina have Lo over for dinner and Audrina fills them in on the fact that J-Bobby is phoning her non stop but she is not answering the phone. Then strangely enough Jason calls Lauren. Lauren admits she has only been in love once in her life….ahem Jason.
- Heidi the next day goes into work to and meet with Brent her boss and tells her that she thinks she qualifies for the new position and that she would really like to be considered.
- Audrina and Lauren go the gym and have an intense workout with their trainer Jarrett, who convinces them to meet him and his friend Derek out for drinks and they decide on the bar Lola.
- While on the date, all Derek can talk about is how he buys vintage shirts at a thrift shop for 40 cents and then he’s thinking he may be able to sell them for $70 one day. They head to Les Deux and Derek starts telling Lauren that she is the best girl he’s ever met and that he’s falling in love with her. While in the bathroom Lauren says to Audrina, “I’ve never been on a date with someone and wanted to stab myself in the eye with a fork so bad!”
- Lauren and Audrina are sun tanning the day after and they start talking about things and how the bad guys want back in their lives just at the wrong time. Audrina mentions that she finally picked up the phone and spoke with J-Bobby and he apologized which he has never done before in their history.
- Heidi goes to work few days later and walks into her brand new office…apparently she got the job. Elodie greets her at the door and says congrats on the new position. She just hopes that Heidi appreciates it as much as she would have.
- Audrina goes to the beach with J-Bobby and they seem to have a good aft and then it’s finished off with a bike ride home.
- Lauren goes to a quaint little coffee bar and meets up with Jason, who is still in rehab. They talk about the past and how hard it was to get going after the break up. Jason found it a lot harder then he thought it would be and realized that he did a lot of things wrong. Lauren is trying to be friendly and supportive with Jason but you can tell in her expressions that she’s uncomfortable and doesn’t know what to do. Jason looks like he regrets losing Lauren too.

So after the re-cap I must start off with Heidi. She really has turned into a yucky person since being associated with Spencer and the ring is just ugly to look at. I’m pretty much thinking it’s fake because it never twinkles and it has this black spot in the middle. I can’t believe Heidi backstabbed Elodie after Elodie told her she wanted that position and such. You could almost tell that Heidi was thinking about the position after Elodie started talking about it. I don’t think things will be as kosher in that co-worker friendship as it used to be, I think Elodie will resent Heidi and in a way she should. You could tell as she was walking away after congratulating Heidi. Moving on to Audrina. This girl needs to decide what she wants from J-Bobby and just say, “if you can’t give me what I need then go away”. This guy is yanking her chain almost as if she is a bath tub constantly filling up with water and you yank the chain to get the stopper out. Think of all the emotional turmoil J-Bobby has caused, not just in the last four months but in the previous 2 years…don’t think he’s a keeper. Now Lauren and Jason. We knew this meeting was going to happen eventually because they broadcasted the commercial for it way too early. Jason has been in jail, and now is in rehab, aren’t you fragile when you’re in there, so aren’t you supposed to avoid stressful situations. Sobering up is supposed to be stressful enough. I don’t think he should throw himself back in Lauren’s life, and if he does Lauren can’t handle it either. She has so many mixed emotions about Jason still, she wouldn’t have a sound mind going into a relationship with him fo sho. I think everyone needs to focus on who their TRUE friends are, be the kind of people that they would like to be treated like, and live their lives….their only in their early 20’s….Geez!

PS – I apologize for not posting after the Hills but blogger was down and I couldn’t so today will have to do!
