At the end of the autumn, I was feeling distinctly "meh" about riding my mare...so i gave myself (and her) some time off until after Christmas. Then the rubbish weather intervened, and I couldn't ride because it was too cold, then it was Christmas, and i was away on and off for ages. Now its freezing cold and icy, and I am too protective of her to risk her slipping on the way to the school.

Now i am absolutely desperate to get back on my girl and start work again. Does anyone else feel like this, after a bit iof a "meh" autumn?
 
yeah me!! I've had a few weeks off really, apart from one walk round the block in the snow.

and now im etching to get back on with it, i;ve actually ridden both days this weekend!! Shocking stuff!
 
I feel exactly the same. My boy had a sore back September time and started riding during December a few times but I can't wait for the snow to go so i can ride again.
 
I know the feeling! I love my horses dearly, but sometimes I wonder if all of the hard work, tied commitment, hassle, cost and heart ache is worth it.

I can 110% say it is.

I broke my ankle in July and my OH has been looking after my two for me. It's killing me - I hate not being with them everyday. In some respects I am pleased this time off has happened, it has made me appreciate my horses so much more, and I now know, I could never be without them! xx
