The Joys in frustration
wow! my horse just gets better and better every ride! my insecuritys about him and my riding get proved wrong everytime! he would never do anything on purpose to hurt me! but need to step up the training for the dressage comp!
sore arm and a mouthful of sand!
so, since i haven't posted anything on this blog in ages, and because i don't have many followers, I'm turning this into a horsey blog!
so yesterday, was a really windy, and my horse is a young Thoroughbred, not the best combination! he was fine when he was tied up in the wash bay and i was tacking him up, but walking him from the wash bay to the arena should have been an indicator not to get on and ride, but he'd spooked worse than that he was just lokking around and stopping, so i had the reins in one hand and was mounting from the ground, so i had one foot in the stirrup and was half way in the sadle when he got a fright or was just being silly, and he took off and bucked, and i flew diagonaly and slid off his inside shoulder and landed in the sand, and spent 2 hours in the hospital only for them to tell me my arm isnt broken. oh the joys of horse riding!
