Aging is definitely not all in her head… at the same time AJ can not imagine joining a gym, or, heading to a trainer, without the actual exercise, healing, and even euphoria, of being on horseback, especially in nature. It's common for “serious” equestrians to want to be fit for dressage. And, A.J. is no different. She had a new invitation to “play” dressage, on a bomb proof driving World Champion, under saddle, Sundays, before lunch! “Just go up the road a bit if you want. Or ride in the ring.” She was thrilled with a new weekly horse shift 7am -12. It forces her to get ahead with the radio show! And, she thinks someone should be video droning the farm visits, starting at 6:00am this week in Erin. But, does she really need to put an invitation out on instagram?If it works, how will the horses react? It had been crazy enough trying to bring in 3 that weren’t used to being together, while trying to close the gate behind them. As soon as she saw her fellow worker with the two, in hand and none of the other herd around she shouted “I’m leaving the gate for you!” But there was no weird weather or sounds or objects to worry about...
“More treble. Yes.” She swooned at the way he sound checked at Mariposa, and her crush is back on. “One more decibel down. Yes, thank you.” Did Joel Plaskett get a turn? If so, that part she missed.
She is trying, also, to keep an open mind. Because keeping whales and dolphins in captivity for entertainment is no longer acceptable, and the entire fur industry should not exist. She is actively advocating and promoting horse welfare standards. Is the way we make them dance around indoor rings with us on their backs as an recreation acceptable? What about their live export and slaughter? AJ knows that Jill finds her hypocritical, because she is not a vegetarian, and will someday, likely, eat horse meat. Maybe Christmas 2019? She would also like to drive a horse and sleigh. And in better weather, could you drive a carriage from Hillsburg to Owen Sound? She knew a place with a barn to go stay at…
To her ideal host, at Hillside, she said, "Oh, I have broken at least one on-line heart since then," bringing him up to speed on her love life. "And since then, I basically, just stopped looking. My social life is great and full!" She walked few steps and turned back to add, "Don't get me wrong. I'm o p e n, in case you want to set me up, ha ha."
