Well, I learned today that it isn't just this Thursday we are babysitting, but every Thursday. That means I can earn money that way.
As well as I might be walking their dog.
I also will be either an apprentice(sp?) at a pet grooming place at the end of this year, and from what I can tell you get paid Bather's pay (which is minimum wage). If apprentices don't get paid (but, like I said, someone said they do) I will just be a bather and earn money that way, then go to a school for grooming when I'm old enough. I found a school that is really good and is near us. So I will be making money that way too.
Which means....I can finally take horseback riding lessons! I almost cried when I realized it. I have been wanting to ever since I can remember. I already searched for stables, and found two so far. One we would have to e-mail for prices, the other is $25 for a half hour lesson either private or group (private are for new students, and the instructor gets to choose whether you can get private ones or not) and $40 for one hour lessons, again private or group. I would want the one hour and hope to get private lessons (I do better learning when I am one on one with someone). Not a bad price for horseback riding lessons is it? The one I would have to e-mail for prices is about 40 minutes away though. But one instructor has over 20 years of experience and the other has 12 years of experience, and you yourself can choose whether you want to do private or group lessons.

Edited to Add:
We lost our game on Sunday. Coach said that apparently they got a lot better and some different players. It was a pretty even match, making it an extremely hard game, because, IMO, the game is a lot harder when you are evenly matched. The ball just kept going back and forth and back and forth. They scored one goal within the first few minutes, it was very unexpected. They never got another goal. We almost got a goal quite a few times. There was a lot of banging and pushing, twice a girl from each team fell (not our fault, but the other teams, and yet both times we got the foul called on us). Kristin (not the coaches daughter but the other Kristin) had a ball hit her face and her braces cut her gums and started bleeding. It seems like every time (seriously almost every time this happens) I pressure someone for the ball they would boot it and it flies through the air and come towards me. I always flinch when that happens because before during a game I have had the ball hit my face and I was really dazed. I had a very bad headache afterward. Kat (the normal goalie) while playing defense headed the ball twice during corner kicks, and it had to hurt, I was almost at the other end of the field and could hear the thud as she did it. We had to pull her out because she started getting dizzy, but she was fine within a few minutes. We put her in goal and she caught quite a few would-be goals. It was very frustrating to us to lose. I played forward every time I was on the field. The first few minutes of the game I was out, but then he put me in and only pulled me out once for about 5 minutes, which I was glad for because it was hot that day. I got a little sunburn on my face, but it doesn't hurt at all.
