Giddy Up!
I r going riding! Yay!
I have been getting increasingly fed up with entire evenings stuck on teh sofa and with the lack of horses. Obviously with The Leg, I hadn't been able to keep looking after Ziggy, so D. (her owner) had got a couple of other girls in, because god forbid he do the hard work himself... One took her on full time loan over teh summer; then the stables we kept her at closed down and she's been moved much further away (I need to hassle him a bit to find out exactly where and go visit).
So, I am left horseless. Which is annoying and frustrating, but I can't really complain, because there's no way I could ride Zigs enough to get her properly fit even this year; it wouldn't have been fair to try.
Plus, watching someone *else* looking after her and riding her was Not Easy last year.
Anyway. The upshot is, i have phoned the only local riding school left open to see about going for lessons and am off on friday afternoon for an assessment. Hurrah! V. excited! Must see if i can get my boots on now (last time I tried, stupid ankle wouldn't go in). A couple of the girls I used to ride with moved their horses there last year, so it'll be nice to see them again too.
It'll also be nice to see if I can actually get some leg muscles back ;p
