I love riding don't get me wrong..is just today... wasn't enjoying it as much. Was working at her 1/2 pass at a walk and she wasn't paying attention, even with half halts.. so she trips and just about lands on her face. Luckily she has big shoulders so I can dig my leg and knees into her so I don't come off. Was wearing my helmet and Charles Owen safety vest. Was riding bareback as I prefer that over a saddle now a days.
Also haven't been driving Maggie near as much as I would normally do, for a couple of reasons.. one.. the rocks on the country road because DH hasn't had the time to fix my cart path, as it is too bumpy to drive over the hay field... and my arms have been hurting when I hold the reins. Do stretches and all that but still doesn't help.
Physically I am doing tons better compared with this time last year but...... still no where near were I was before that time.
Couldn't give my horses up... but some times I wsh I had an older been their done that, less complicated Icelandic. Not that Dyfra is bad.. she is a great horse well trained but... oh I just don't know. I guess maybe her tripping has unsettled me a bit.
Anyone else feel this way sometimes?
