My Wonderful Quarter Horse

So, I finally fell off my horse. It was a silly mistake. I should have known better. He was overjumping a jump, as he often does, and I got too far forward, and got bounced off over his shoulder. He promptly stopped and began to eat grass right beside me as I gathered myself to get back up.

For those of you who have never seen my horse:

(Sorry for the poor quality!)

I still love my horse to death, and would not trade him for a well broke push button horse for anything. (How boring.) Just a short introduction to my horse obsessed life, though I no longer live on a horse farm or manage a barn. (Thank God, most days.)

Take care,

Peppermint

Your horse is beautiful!!! I love horses as well. Have you found that your horse has helped you in your recovery?

You have a beautiful gelding. My mare has personality as well, though I'm more than thankful to have her. Horses are very therapeutic animals!

Also, it's okay to fall once in a while, as long as you get back up!

Thank you both. I have found that, though right now he is also the source of a lot of financial stress. He does give me the courage I need though to make hard decisions. If I can stand up to a 1100 lb gelding, I can certainly stand up to _____ .
