So Im starting small. I go out everyday and do one thing with the horse, if I find I am enjoying myself, I'll keep going. If I find it hard, I'll stop when the short daily task is finished. Either way I come back with a sense of achievement. So far I have found that I do enjoy it and I stay out there longer than intended, but Im not back to riding yet.
Could it be the same with writing? Maybe sit for 2 minutes a day to start with and just write down whatever you are thinking. If you get into it expand, but if you dont, well at least you gave it a try, and maybe you will feel better about it tomorrow.

This sounds like a good idea. Right now, for some weird reason, the most important thing to me is a pencil. Not a mechanical pencil. A regular wooden pencil. The smell feels important. With a sharp tip. Maybe that'll be my task for tomorrow - getting some new fresh sharpened pencils. Thanks! And good luck on your horses! I'm glad you are finding that you still love being with them =]
