So, let's see;   what are the last few months' ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2008/06/15/im-back-again/ At the horse show yesterday, my mare Cassie did well.  We placed well in the amateur class and earned 15 points, which is quite good.  In the open class she earned one point.  I was quite proud of her, considering she's not in her ideal condition.   Did you ever happen ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2008/03/10/yesterday/ I went out to eat with 5 other women recently.  We had such a good time.  I was well accepted, and we talked, laughed, and had a lot of fun.  We're going to make this a biweekly get together, and are also planning some shopping trips.  This is so cool.  I ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2008/03/10/dinner-with-the-girls/ A few weeks ago, I went to church.  As I sat down and was reading the church bulletin before the service started, I noticed that the topic in the youth group was "Gender Issues".  Hmmmm.

Tonight ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2006/03/03/only-here/ Tonight I'm going to go see 1964:the Tribute.  It's a concert given by four incredibly talented guys recreating the early Beatles.  They look like the Beatles, they sound identical, they talk like them, etc.  It's a fantastic show.  I've seen them once before, and loved it! Yes, I'm a serious Beatles ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2005/07/29/concert-tonight/ Monday morning, my veterinarian called to tell me that my dog Charcoal was not doing well at all. He perked up a little with IV's, but then went downhill again.  Laboratory tests revealed him to be in advanced kidney failure.  There is no successful treatment. So I made the only humane ... http://justanordinarygal.com/2005/07/20/goodbye-old-friend/
