In Two Words A... Feed Up... Kinda Post

[Forget_Me_Not]

Its really windy....And where I am... I have no school, *unless go down road which is not possible for youngster spesh in this weather* I'm so desp to get things going and get Mr D. on some sort of riding track... so thought i'd lunge him at top field *Most dry* Just in bridle to get him to relax through his back, Also in new bit, now i know hes going to be more of a hackamore lad, but I'm a hackamore virgin so waiting till hes older. Start off Ok.... He isn't happy with bit... head in air.... tounge everywhere.... feet high steping trying to get the bit out i guess.... Any ho... he got alittle to strong... I wasn't in gloves *Hate the things* I spents more time on the ground.... Worried might of rebroken ankle as can't walk again

Really hurting and hands are in streds.... I've cried. To say the least. My only hope is the land we've trying to buy. But it is just land. So i'm going to be even worst off *if thats possible* And as i don't pay his yard bills *only thing i dont* I cant control moving him to yard.

I cant bare to sell him, his to younge to loan, and I need a hug. Words of wisedom.... I know I'm one always saying just got look long term goals... always days you just want to pack in...

Awww - I'm in the same boat with our youngster can't do anything with her because of the mud - too slidy to lunge. And it's our own land.

(((((hugs sent)))))

But the gloves - oh please wear gloves! If he'd taken off and you'd tried to stop him your hands would be sooo burnt and sore - and he'd still have pissed off into the distance. *just re-read and your hands ARE sore - owwwww*

What bit is he in that he doesn't like? We just started our girl on a loose ring soft rubber snaffle which she chewed up but didn't mind - she's just a chewer!

Don't pack in!!Mark today down as one of those days and move on.

This weather is disgusting...I "miss" seeing SWUO cos she's always either sheltering from the weather or we're bringing her in,drying her off,giving her her tea,then going home!

Look ahead...and get that ankle seen to.

*hug*

[/ QUOTE ] Pretty much what happened... Again and again. Hands are in peices.... I was so worried he'd tangle him self so I didnt want let go hence ended up on ground being dragged. I think things would of been so different in a school. Its one of thoose things i don't think can be helped. Its just teaching your horse not to. Hes now relised *god help me* Hes stronger then me...

I did manage to get him walking and a little trot without bolts, or napping before i put him to bed.
