Welcome back everyone!
Can see the past year has been rough for alot of people, but I'm glad to hear overall that everyone is surviving and well. Exciting to hear about all the babies born! I love babies (so feel free to post pics

Good for you for losing all that weight Luna- keep it up. That's awesome.
Leena- I am very glad to hear that you are still staying strong. I thought about you a lot while the boards were down, wondering how you were doing. Glad to get a good update- keep it up- you are amazing!
As for me, I can't complain at all. Had some family scares with both my grandma and grandpa- both heart problems, and my grandma, we only found out about the issue because she was in the hospital due to breaking her leg. Fortunately for my grandpa, he is doing fine- just has to be careful with himself. My grandma is also now doing well, though she is still healing from the broken leg (going on 7 months now). Slow, but steady. So I've been going to their house once a week and putting in a couple hours of cleaning to help my grandma out.
I am now in my final term of my final year of university! That is very exciting. I'm now looking into massage therapy courses- will do human first, then I believe I will go to D'AL for horses. So right now, I've been busy getting down to business with school and making appoitments to visit schools. The only thing with MT, is most programs start either this May or June- so I'll be finishing one program and jumping into another- good and bad. Good cause I'll finish the next program earlier, bad cause I won't get much of a mental break, and I won't have alot of time to work and make money to afford riding (which is CLEARLY the biggest issue

).
Riding is going well. Wasn't the best show season for us (missed alot of shows due to stone bruise occuring during warmup at a show, being rained out, then me being sick) and I've taken our jumping back to fix some bad habits that have crept up, but all in all, no complaints there either. For awhile I was pressuring myself into finishing my riding levels (which is something I'd still like to do), but I've been so busy with school and trying to work that it was just stressing me out. So I've decided I'm not going to put time limits on things. I'm just going to enjoy the ride and we'll get there when we get there. Now with potentially going back to school again this May/June I have no idea what my show season will look like- that will all depend on money and time. Again- whatever we get to, I'm happy with.
