Well, overall a very bad week. I'm just hoping that the reason for me feeling like this hormonal! :rolleyes:

Well to start the week off, Red's owner (a committee member of my local show where i would have been competing) told me she was having a year off from Springwood this year. Also her daugher (my best mate) was not taking her pony. She said i was more than welcome to take Red still.

Mid-week I go on a hack, and realise just how low my confidence really is. I have an over-emmotional night, some of which i am still having now. I'm starting to think that I'm not the right owner/rider for Red because i'm making him worse when he gets abit edgy.

And then yesterday, I find out that said local show have dropped Ridden Coloured(!!!!) from their show schedule.

So i'm in one of those teenage strop-depressed moods. I no longer look forward to or enjoy riding because of my confidence. I just think i should have fallen in love with something that came natural to me rather than horses.

:(:( I'm sorry for depressing you all on a Friday night! x

im sorry to hear that - im destined not to compete this year too - 1 horse lame, one with breathing/coughing/colic problem and one backed 2 weeks ago - 3 and i cant take any one of them!!

somethings are destined not to be - have a horsey day at home - bath plat and generally play as if you were getting ready for that show - will make you feel calmer and better and he will love the attention:)
