Today has been a good first day working at my stables, I'm getting paid £6 an hour, and working for two hours a morning, this morning I mucked out the boys stables, it's a row of five. I did everyone but Gatsbys because Gatsby's stable was completely and utterly ditched. So Fiona went out to get him some Aquamax bedding. Then I helped Fiona to bring the horses in. It was a really good morning and I felt loads better after being there and working. Just before I was about to leave fiona asked if it would be possible for me to work Thursday mornings as well, so tomorrow I am back at the stables again but this time it'll be from 8am until 10am. I'm getting paid weekly and all the money that I make is being saved up and going straight back in to my savings account. I'm loving spending so much time at the stables, I feel that it is helping to improve my health and help me lose weight.
Anyway I'm curled up in my bed with my nephew so I'm going to leave you with this cute picture.

ReplyDeleteYour nephew is so cute! I'm glad you're enjoying working at the stables. I loved working at a dressage stable. I definitely got in shape with all the walking and stall cleaning. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved the experience, it got me out of the house and made me have something to focus on, it's something I will never forget and am currently in the process of applying for another dressage stables job.
DeleteYay! Fingers crossed! I hope you get it!
DeleteThank you i'm just sending my cv in to them now.
