A wonderful morning...

[Mary Poppins]

I went to catch Ben this morning and he did something he hasn’t done for months. He took one look at me and took off round the field! I have never been so pleased to find him hard to catch, it shows he is feeling better. He has that glint back in his eye which I have really missed. He no longer winches when I touch his back and seems so much happier.

And I had a good chat with the staff and have made my peace with them so things are looking much better. After looking a few yards I am staying put where I am, it may cost me a small fortune and we may have our ups and downs but it is our home.

Happy weekend everyone.

Glad to hear Ben is feeling better and you have been able to make the situation livable for you too

Thank you. I think that I was just so upset that things which I could normally tolerate just blew my mind. I am happy there the vast majority of the time, and Ben is happy which is the most important thing.

I'm very glad to read this and thrilled to hear that Ben is back to his cheeky bombing around the field self. Have a lovely weekend.

Thank you. I really am feeling better, having a poorly horse is so stressful. Am dying to ride now though. I have been offered various horses to ride so I may go and ride one.

This is good to read at last. I understand the yard issue bit sometimes staying put is best

Thank you. I just let all the frustrations build up and then I saw red. It is ridiculous really and just shows how much stress can influence my normal thought processes. No one on the yard is trying to upset me, they are trying to help in their own way but I took some comments to heart which were insignificant in the whole swing of things. Onwards and upwards, no point dwelling on things that have happened.
