Anyone else jealous of those with only one horse

[Hedwards]

I'm in the process of looking for my second... but to be fair, Connie is retired and will never do more than a poddle round the fields... so i am seriously missing having one to ride! So yes, I am jealous of those with only one horse (if they can ride it) and more so of those thta have a choice of horses to ride!

i said id never have two... i now have two. I am seeking a third next year, depending on how this brat thing ive just bought turns out....as shes going to be a short arse 14.2 (and im 5'7)!!!

i need s stocky 14.2 or a big lanky 16hh!

So yes...2 becomes 3..............3 becomes 4 etc

Fine until your one and only horse 'breaks'

Worse when you have two that "break"

Yes, I am jealous - mainly of the time - I struggle with 2 especially as one or both seem to be on box rest most of the time There are a few at my yard who have 2/3 horses, but they all have someone to help (mother/daughter shares or very helpful OH's), and I find it hard.

Once my old boy goes, I won't be having 2 horses again.

Not as such but i have just been sent to do a week in Lisbon for my work and I am loving it. I don't have to get up before 6 and force medication down a geriatric that would realy rather be uncomfortable than swallow, explain to B2 why broncing with mummy before work is less funny than doing it at a weekend or to B1 why we have to keep practicing the schooling she already knows and no we can't hack or jump every day of the week as I do not have time. I also have time to *gasp* wash my hair before work!

I am therefore jealous of those who can afford livery when they fancy a lie in! And those whose horse/s don't need working everyday to stop them from freaking out (goodness knows what I will go home to as B2 has had 4 whole days being a horse in a field and will probably have a malfunction when I get on him at the weekend!) oh and those who live soemwhere where it doesn't RAIN all the blooming time!
