Try buying a new saddle

Ok, so not everyone goes through this problem, and you must be very glad you dont.
Trying to get a new saddle that will fit my ever growing rear end. My 30 year old saddle still looks new, and fits every horse like a glove, but my rear end seems to be falling out over the cantle, so i decided it was time to search for a bigger 16 or 17 in seat.
I found one on craigslist, happens to be my daughters old equestrian coach, and so i go over and get the saddle and try it on my little coming 3 year old filly.
Well, she must have had that saddle fitted to some kind of round barrel, because the sides flap way out on my horse, whom is perfectly conformed. You cant just use anysaddle. I do not want that to be the reason why Perla (the horse)decides to buck. So my search continues to find that saddle, that is light, brown, and designed to fit any horse!

Schools nowadays

I need to rant on something... Public Schools!!! I am so glad I graduated in the late 80's and not the late 00's. What would we have done if we had to stay on school grounds for lunch.? I would have gone absolutely crazy! No security guards watching out every move. Now I go to my kids HS and the security guard immediately asks, "Can I help You?" Well, no,,,,, ! Why would I need their help? I am going to the counseling office. I feel where much trust is given, responsibility will follow. I mean, if I decided to ditch class back in the old days, I simply had to pay the price of figuring out what i missed. It was not going to be an in school suspension the first time, nor the third.
Ok, my sons HS is having their prom on May 30th. This is NINE days after he gets OUT of school. He is a senior so they get out earlier... why is that???? So, I just found out that his prom is on the same day as the preplanned graduation party I had planned. I didnt think I had to confer regarding the prom. I figured Prom would have been before school got out. Is this crazy...? Someone tell me. Am I the only one that can not believe that a school would have the senior prom,,, AFTER school is over??? I am told crazy reasons, but am also advised I am the only one that has said anything. Well, i have family coming from all over the country to attent this grad party and graduation ceremony. I planned the party for the Sat before the grad on Tues. Which of course I got in big trouble from my sis in law who also chose the same Sat. in May for her daughters open house. I thought it would be great,,, this way all family could attend both in one day. But no,, I was told, "We all talked about the dates and this is what we came up with." Who is we??? Not I!!! If someone has actually talked with "I" we wouldnt have had this mess. I was asked to pick the next weekend. Ok, so if i pick the next weekend, my mother and father in law will be out of state, and all the other people that came for sis in laws open house, have to come back for ours. Sounds silly. So, i stuck to my guns, and said I will keep our date.
Now I am told she wont be able to attend our party. Thank goodness I have my mom and dad, and sister and brother, and sister in law to help at my party while I go to the sister in laws party. Sounds confusing... I am sorry... just crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
