Yep still have her. She's for sale (again). Because I had a month or so of being totally smitten with her again and when you stop checking your bank account that's awesome. Then you remember your cars are all super high mileage, kids are growing, and you're pretty sure that's rust in the back of your microwave (seriously they do that?!).
When I first went to look at her, I wasn't so sure. She was taller than I wanted, and had training but in WP, so she was downhill and either threw herself at jumps from quite the distance away or did an impressively small chip in.
Such a baby face |
But lots of things in my life change, and I am slowly accepting that's ok. Having two kids was more time consuming than I expected (hey I'm an only child- I have no frame of reference lol). And ya know, take more money too.
She is a saint as soon as my son is aboard |
OMG feet leaving ground |
awww Ira is good at finding the good ones
ReplyDeleteYes, which means you get used to lots of NO! Lol.
DeleteI'm learning to accept that sometimes horses aren't my #1 priority... it's hard to adult sometimes!
ReplyDeleteAdulting is way overrated sometimes.
Deleteshe's a sweet mare and you've done good by her :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, she really is one of the sweetest horses I've known.
DeleteI wish I could buy her. I think she's the kind of horse that I'd really like.
ReplyDeleteYes, you'd like her, everyone who meets her does.
DeleteShe sounds wonderful! But I hear you on financial priorities as an adult... ugh :(
ReplyDeleteThat whole having to feed and shelter yourself is hard.
