hellisonWorking week is nearly over (for me), which is GOOD. Tho, I have been Productive this week, so go me.
Also, more importantly, went riding again! This time managed to do a bit more, although it does highlight just how lacking I am in leg muscles now, particularly left calf, leading to a distinct lack of bending in that direction. Also inability to use both legs at once To Create Forward Impulsion (as the books say), which caused poor Ziggy some confusion when I was trying to get her to trot (I got brave. Also bored with walking ;p), but could only use one leg to do it. And even more confusion when she did trot and I stopped her again after 3 or 4 strides.
But, once we got moving, i did manage a few very short bursts of trotting on each rein - still sitting, not even contemplating rising trot for some time yet. Current plan is to go up once or twice a week, depending on what nights I can sort out with the others, and do a bit more each time, until she goes off for her summer break. Then start all over again after that (hopefully july/august), by which time leg should be a lot stronger anyway.
Came home with much more energy than I've had in weeks and managed to clear kitchen, put bins out, put away shopping, replace old flowers with fresh ones AND cook dinner all before hitting the sofa. I think I need to get out in the fresh air much more often, it obviously does me good!
Tonight, packing for READMEET then Pilates. Then tomorrow, a refined evening of Culture, Art and Cider withteam horror Lovely People. And Pie!
Then saturday, more of the same, hopefully with the addition of Dasquian and Malvino.
Tho. Reading may be a step up from Feltham, but y'all really do need to move somewhere more Exotic for me to come visit. Somewhere sunny, by the sea would be good. Or just all move over here, save me the airfares ;p
