Granny's gone and done it again

[Yorkshire Coop]

Back to work tomorrow granny Been trying to get house chores and laundry done today. Also I’ve had my first ride on Harry in 5 weeks this morning. He too has had the same amount of time off so I was a little worried about getting back on regarding how he would feel. He felt super though and was a good lad all the way round the village. In fact he was marching!

Morning all

Morning, Granny! You inspired me yesterday. I didn't have any saffron rice but I found some wild rice blend so I seared some chicken tender fillets in a hot pan, seasoned them with salt and pepper and cut them up into the cooked rice. It was SOOO good, thanks!

Im feeling ok I guess. No energy at all. Hungry and dont even feel like putting food in the microwave.

Something without cooking or microwave? I have protein bars in for when I’m like that. Quite filling and no faffing with them!

Well. Did a thing.

Ohh How I wish I could ride again. Last time I rode I actually sprained my wrist getting off the horse. Ended up in the ER.
Glad you enjoyed it Blue.

I dont think I have anything like that. I just need to force myself to do it. "faffing"?

Hi Blue, don‘t you fancy getting into them again? I can’t imagine my life without them. Good for the soul they are. Harry’s field companion Brannon is a half Arab along with welsh in him. Coming into the house for visits sounds interesting!

York, a couple of factors at work here. 1. this is not good horse country. I used to be in a dry, desert sort of climate, wide open, lots of trails and wonderful riding weather year round. Not so where I am now. Also, the bug situation is different here, biting insects bad for man and beast. 2. I've aged and my health won't permit me to ride and care for horses any more. And 3. At our age, the cost of horses would be foolish to take on. So, though I have regrets around living without horses, and reality is harsh, it is a fact of life. So any time you want to post pics of your Harry, you will bring a little joy to this old horse-loving heart!
