 Uphill both ways

No one ever said sports were easy. Mine alone takes a life time and a few horses to master.

I've known several people to not only sacrifice their families, their time, but their bodies and most of their income on something they would never see a return for.

I've wished for a long time for certain things to happen, and now, they're slowly started to occur. Most of it is bridge building. But I'm still not satisfied. I want to begin training full-time again, five days a week up and going with a full string of three horses. I want my USDF medals. I want flexibility with my job and not be so reliant on a faceless corporation.

Slowly, this is happening. Slowly I'm building the bridge that will carry me into something I want and will spend the rest of my life doing. It's just frustratingly slow.

This week I spent outside of the arena, just going out and galloping. The weather had a huge part of it as well. Crisp weather, and open fields.

The open fields did the pony good, about four miles of slow galloping work a day probably got the 20x60 box temporarily out of her mind. Went back to the box today with some improved results. I also need to get back to wine blogging. Haven't done anything recently.

Thanks for the suggestion of the google calendar. I'm doing my best to banish AOL from my computer, which is what I used before.
Should have known the dressage world had moved into the here and now without me noticing. Seems like even the Express Eventing freestyles had current music. I tend to be a bit sheltered (ignorantly unaware) of the goings on outside my safe little niche of lower level eventing. <G> It's long been a dream of mine to do a freestyle to something really fun, which it seems I can now do....when I finally learn enough dressage. ;)
