Nevermind.

Well, I was forced scheduled to work on the day of the show. (Due to someone else's last-minute vacation) So I have to cancel and there are no refunds. Nice.

One part of me in pretty pissed because I am out that money.

Another part of me is relieved because while yes I am out the $95 entry/stall fee (cheap for a show really!) I am also "saving" money by not forking over $400 for transportation. Look on the bright side, Karen!

The next opportunity is Flying Cross in the middle of November. Even if I still have to work that day I can still make this one since those mini trials are usually over by 1 or 2 p.m.

Until then ... back to the sandbox. :)

  1. A mixed blessing, I guess. It will be nice to earn money instead of spend it ($400?? Ouch). Bummer to miss the show though. :(

  2. Yikes to $400! So sorry you have to sit this one out - hope a show happens for you closer to home before year end.

  3. Dang it that sucks but at least you are in the center of horse heaven and have plenty of other options.

  4. That's a bummer. Maybe you could talk to your employer and explain that you had invested money for your day off that you didn't get? But, of course, like that would work.
