It was nothing short of bloody freezing at yarrambat at the weekend. Marshalling would have been so much better from inside sheriffs office.... Madi's first grade 3 dressage test.... Mojo needs some work..... not a great result. Sunday back again where hell has frozen over.... Madi and Mojo - one refusal at the water jump in cross country course and somehow he managed to cut his foot and by the time the showjumping round was on, he was lame..... exit... stage left.
Leigh called in for dinner after being away all weekend and we decided to head off to the movies - all of us, Leigh, me, Leah, Andrew (this week's beau) and Madi. The movie: 28 weeks later - not quite the follow up to 28 days with Sandra Bullock as Leigh had suggested, but some sick scary movie about some deadly virus turning people into crazed, infected, murderous monsters..... Yep - enough to give me nightmares. So traumatized by this damn movie that when when Leigh offered to stay the night and keep me safe.... I jumped at it. Still, not a lot sleep was had..... ;-)
Max squat night and my right hip is hurting when I squat - even with no weight - this is the same as I had last year heading intot he Nationals.... I'm beginning to wonder if it seasonal!!! Talking of the nationals - the entry from and comp details arrived in the mail today.

You aussies now how to do it right! Dinner and powerlifting! They leave it up to us to feed ourselves here in the states! Good luck!
Advil, rest, advil and more rest. Be careful those bands are not too much on the hips, (I am not a big fan of bands...but almost everyone else is.)
