Also, I feel you with the traffic. From office to barn it is an hour and 45 minutes since I have to take the subway to my car first and then sit in traffic getting out of the city. Which is why I sneak out of work a half-hour early, hehe! And how I ended up at the barn I am at now - they had lessons until 7:30! And I love this barn so much now!AGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891317132617390308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3683411878420504941.post-77804635740038214722015-09-08T14:58:06.729-04:002015-09-08T14:58:06.729-04:00lol thanks! i still can't believe how much it ...lol thanks! i still can't believe how much it throws ariel off!! :SAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10406528960358822727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3683411878420504941.post-87610254103110653192015-09-08T08:54:24.114-04:002015-09-08T08:54:24.114-04:00my right side is super crooked too haha. good luck...my right side is super crooked too haha. good luck sorting it out!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.com
