Diva's first trip out of the year

[scats]

Took Florence out for a lesson yesterday, first trip of the year in the box (we've had a lazy winter in that respect). We had a blip towards the end of last year with the PSSM diagnosis and the subsequent management issues that are still a work in progress, but I was generally very pleased with how well she worked.

I am also suffering from a fractured coccyx and awaiting physio, steroid injections, god knows what else, so needless to say that I am now spending the majority of the today sitting on one bum cheek, as I think I may have overdone it yesterday!

A few pictures-

Good to be out and about having fun but fractured coccyx my god woman you are tough!!

It's not too bad, weirdly the pain is at its worst when I stand from sitting. Physio on Friday so hopefully by the weekend I will have a plan of action.

Bleedin' Nora, I second that... brave or crazy?! She looks lovely though, what's your plan for her this year?

I thought bruised coccyx were bad enough - poor you!!

Florence looks lovely in the pics

Thank you 😊

We will be doing dressage this year, last year we stuck to intro due to having canter issues but we hope to do some prelim this year, possibly tackle a novice by the end of the season.

Our blog for Your Horse is being launched on their website this Friday, in case anyone wants to follow our progress.
