The Hard Work Now Begins!

I have dossed off lately I will admit it... Now my exams are over I have no excuse! I was studying it all up last night and any doubt about how little I know about lunging have now been gone! Lost yet? Ok well basically now that I am no longer in secondary school I have to do DIY cause I'm actually at home so that also comes with no RI riding my pony getting him on the bit and lunging him! So yesterday I got this really cute purple cavession with a matching black lunge line.... I know he'll look like a tool but that was the cheapest one there and its also really padded so it feels really comfy so he make ge over how much I make a show of him. LOL Speaking of which I have a feeling him he going to destroy his boett soon.... Everyone whos new to the yard kinda looks at him strangely at if he is diseased or got 5 heads so something and I think hes fed up and being different because I came to the field yesterday and he was standing there with it so twisted looking all innocent at me as if I put it on that way or something! I've sent myself a plan for every week over the summer:
Monday: Gallop and messing about with a bit of cross country
Tuesday: Flatwork schooling (Pole work and caveletti)
Wednesday: Hack (with sneaking schooling involved)
Thursday: Day Off
Friday: Maxi, Super Maxi and lunging
Saturday: Hack (with sneaky schooling involved)
Sunday: Flatwork schooling (Trasitions and circles)
I thinks fairly good but hopefully it will work not sure should I include another lunging session in there somewhere but it fairly packed. Even though most of the kiddies I know ride there ponies twice a day sometimes. Anyways I'll update you later about how the lunging went and the league even though I'm really really behind due to my forgetting the course, going before the bell and jumping the wrong fence (all my fault by the way) but Vic was fab in them!
