I somehow managed to swing a job this week. Three days a week, I’m going up to the barn to clean and see Ollie and I get paid to do it. It’s just minimum wage, but let’s be real, I’m a.) getting paid and b.) getting out of the house. I can’t ride, but it’s still nice to get up there and hang out. It’s been, I don’t know, two weeks since I’ve seen Ollie. He really needs to get out more, he’s been in his stall for so long. I wish we were allowed to ride. It was a little on the hot side today, but we’ve done full days of camp when it’s hotter, so I probably shouldn’t complain. I only got one blister from the pitchfork today, so I’d consider that a win.
My parents tried so hard to make tonight a good night for me. As far as birthdays went, it wasn’t the best (for obvious reasons), but we had pizza and a big family zoom call. Honestly, I kinda hate celebrating my birthday. It’s weird. Everyone feels the need to tell me how old I am. My dad’s already Going Through It about me going to college (in FIVE months), but today he was all “my baby’s growing up”. I hate that kind of attention. Maybe it’s just because I know a LOT of people who make wayyyyyy too big of a deal about their birthdays, but I hate acting like it’s MY day. Anyway, birthdays are weird. At least my friends didn’t forget it this year 🙂
