So years ago I was half paying attention to TV and hubby commented on this cartoon commercial that he couldn't believe they were advertising on cable. I perked up, confused at who used a cute little cartoon of people looking like they were dating. Hubby had to explain the Ashley Madison website. For those that had no idea like me, its a site where you can basically find others who want to cheat with you.... (hubby is lucky I trust him lol)...
My point? I've been perusing horse ads. And I told trainer if she caught wind of anyone wanting a horse that fit Holly, she could show her.
It totally feels like cheating.

| Cheating lol |
I got Holly right after I had my first kid, and knew realistically I may get too busy with two kids to keep a horse that needs more saddle time like her. But she is pretty and lets my kid feed her treats without nibbling on his fingers. And since I started thinking of dealing with her as temporary, she honestly has been easier to ride.

Taking each ride on its own helps me to not get overwhelmed when she is being a spooky butt. Then the behavior usually stops because duh, she reacts to me more than anything.
She honestly is the kick-ass hunter horse I wanted her to become when I got her, its just now, my desires have changed. I really feel like I want something shorter, less intimidating to my son, so I can start getting him interested. Less intimidating to me lol.

Plus judging by how many cars I've had, I'm a little ADHD when it comes to things. I'm likely just getting that itch to see what else is out there. That's why it feels like cheating, she's done what I've wanted, and here I go looking for something else.
I get that, I'm lucky have various horses that I ride, because if it was just one all the time I would totally be getting the itch for a different horse.
ReplyDeleteI always thought growing up with rent string how nice it would be to have my own, now I miss the variety lol. Need to win lotto, would solve most problems ;)
