Horse time, FINALLY




I  am finally riding Sirocco, I am going to the trainers twice a week and more if possible.  I was very nervous and tight when I first started riding.  I finally calmed down and started thinking about my riding.  Not to look down, but where I wanted to go, trying to keep my butt from bouncing all over the saddle and so forth.  Tonight is another night I go to ride and I hope the ride is much better.  I got a few wonderful pointers from one of my favorite blogger.   I am going to really try to put that advice to work.

I am thinking about redoing the footing in my corral and hope the hubby will help me.  I think we will have to get the wood done first (with my help) then maybe I can talk him into it.  I will find out how much sand is going to cost me first.

Today is a day of cleaning chicken houses, or at least the nest boxes.  Then work on trying to find the workbench so the hubby can see it again.  BEFORE you ask, yes, he actually wants me to mess up his mess ;=) , then it is off to get groceries and then a massage, and finally going to ride Sirocco.  Boy, I am tired just thinking about it!

Have a great day.

I think you and your horse are now at a level where you can start building a great partnership.
