Sometimes you're the windshield. Most often I end up being the bug, or in Speedy's case, his human tissue.

I made it through the W - T? Now I'm on the F part of the trio (WTF?) It's rare that I don't make it to the barn, and rarer still that I miss two days. I know my boys are fine, thank you, RM, but being at the barn is what keeps me balanced and grounded.
I still have a long week looming, but at least there is a weekend coming to sort of diffuse the stress. I should be back to a temporary "normal" by tomorrow. TGIF and all that comes with it (something on the rocks, something in a bottle, and something red). Cheers!

It seems wrong to hit the "like" button, but I guess it's because I'm glad you're almost to the weekend! I'll be home on Sunday, give me a call if you feel like it before or after your barn therapy!

Lori is a great photographer with an amazing eye. I don't know how she managed to catch a sneeze! Comments are closed.

About the Writer and RiderI am a lifelong rider.
I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010. Welcome to my dressage journey.
