For various reasons we haven't been able to ride the last couple of weekends. I wasn't sure about yesterday. We were having high winds that can make the horses silly. I've been struggling with fibro pain the last week. Wasn't sure my body was up to it.
We ended up riding. It was wonderful! Instead of spooking Kieran just poked around the ring, no acting silly, no spooking, no trying to go faster. We just poked around the ring. It was the best thing for my head. Work has been insanely stressful the last few weeks. It gave me a chance to turn my brain off for awhile. The gentle motion helped a teeny bit with the fibro pain.
Once again, I'm so glad I found him.
