Welcome to blog! I started it in 2020 to chart my recovery from breaking my ankle (hence the name). I guess no-one saw a global pandemic coming. It's turned into a place where I can talk about the things happening in my life, my horse and my cats. Enjoy!
I had to post a letter on my way to the yard, so stopped at the postbox behind my house. I spotted this box next to it and it made me giggle. It’s been scratched and looks like a little sad face.
It’s funny how we see faces in objects. It’s called ‘pareidolia’. Cool huh?!
When you get sent a video from your jumping lesson last week and this is the final frame. 😝 Sometimes I crack myself up.
Deep respect for my instructor right there!! It was an interesting lesson as I couldn’t work out why I felt so unbalanced and couldn’t get my right leg on. After momentarily thinking I’d had a stroke on the drive there (cause that’s what you do, right?!), I realised I’d put my left stirrup up 4 holes but my right only 2. No wonder I wasn’t feeling level.
Again, it’s a good job I can laugh at my own ineptitude.
It’s also a good job I can laugh at my horse’s antics. Today we headed to Blackwater for some schooling and the little monkey decided he wanted to be a race horse! 🐎 Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful for forward, but I‘d prefer to make the decision about where we’re heading. 🤦🏻♀️ I’m picky like that…
