Challenge 9 & 10

Well, I have a very good excuse for not posting again yesterday. Wanna here it? Of course you do! I was helping (I think) my boss herd and sort his cattle. He was on his green broke (which means barely trained) mule and I was on his good cow horse. Needless to say, most of the responsibly of herding the cattle was placed on me and Scooter (the good horse). I personally think we did a terrible job. Scooter wanted to go see the mule and he was fighting me for about 30 minutes to an hour on the issue. Once he figured out that he had a job to do, he took off and we galloped everywhere trying to get the cattle in. I haven't galloped a horse in so long that it plum wore me out! And after I got worn out, I was just an inch away from the term 'Useless', I think. By the time we got up to the corrals I was like "Someone hand me a loaded tranquilizer gun. I need to be put out of my misery."
It was an interesting day.
Anyway, today I am SO SORE... It's pitiful! A few years ago I used to go out and gallop a horse on an almost daily basis! I was used to herding cattle practically by myself and galloping the whole way to do it! It is just sad that now it wears me out.... Needless to say, this really makes me long to have my own horse again: one that I am familiar with and can ride everyday to help me build up my endurance.

So, on to the challenges: day 9 and day 10.
