For the first time in forever (I'm pretty sure its forever...I don't remember this happening ever before), I have sat down and clicked "New Post" and not known what to write. I just stared at the blank screen, not writing. I think the reason I wanted to write is because I've been wanting to write in my story, which is three hundred miles away at home, on my computer. I'm at camp, pausing between dishes to sit on here. I've been wishing I had brought a notebook all weekend. Maybe its a writer thing, but I feel lost without a notebook. I just have these thoughts and I want to write them down so I won't forget to put them into story format later, but there isn't a blank notebook in sight! It's rather frustrating. And since I don't know what to write, I suppose this can be one of those blogs that is just talkign about whats happened.
I nearly had to get up in the middle of the night and take a shift walking a collicking horse last night, but she pooped (thats a good thing!) so we thought she was going to be alright and our shift wasn't necessary. This morning, however, she turned out to not be alright and the vet is coming out to look at her. She is in clear pain, which is sad. At the same time, we had to say goodbye to Diamond (and hello to a new horse!!) who has been at camp since the ranch first started. Now Odie is the last horse of the original eight. New horse seems very calm, and while his name is Walter, we aren't sure how we feel about that.
Okay, I suppose I have satisfied a small part of my writing urge, even though I don't know what to write, and still wish I had a notebook!
