Truthful Tuesday

I had kind of a crap day yesterday. My job is taking a hard turn south, and it's just kind of depressing and stressful. Then, at 10 pm when I finally got home last night after horsing and running a couple of errands, one of the pups had diarrhea all over the floor... So yeah, crap day. But in between all that figurative and literal crap, we had a rain storm that ended with plenty of time to ride and a beautiful double rainbow.

You can't see the second one in the photo, it was pretty faint, but it was there I promise! I'm not a particularly spiritual person, but I do really appreciate when mother nature throws us something nice to look at it. I literally sat down at the end of the barn for a few minutes to stare at this rainbow (and grab a few pics). It was a nice detox before getting on my first horse. I wish I knew how to get better photos though, because you should have seen all the colors in it. It really was pretty spectacular.

This morning when I was driving to work the moon was still out too. I'm not sure why but I LOVE seeing the moon during the day. It always brings a smile. Is that weird? Any of you like that too?

And my other confession is probably the one you'll most enjoy... My last pair of Regals is dying a very quick death (the patent ones seem to break a lot faster than the regular ones, probably due to them being extra cheap...) and I made the irresponsible decision to replace them with a pair of black DeNiro Salentinos. So despite my saying no more boots for a very long time, there is a pair on order. I got them for under $270 though so that's pretty good right? Discount Equestrian in the UK if you're looking to get a pair for not too much money. I can't speak of the experience yet, since I just placed the order, but they have a bunch of options available at the base price. So that was nice. I had thought about getting them a bit taller than my blue ones, but it cost extra for more height so I decided they were good enough. They aren't super short, just a touch. And they're just for schooling.

And since I'm not sure how much longer I'll be employed, that really does need to be the last pair of boots!

Anything you guys need to get off your chest today? Thoughts on nature? Or boots?
