I know I am lucky, but it's wonderful. Sometimes I change their rugs when they come in, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I groom them, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I ride them, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I am absolutely anal about sweeping up after myself and them, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I just spend a lot of time talking to my horses, or sitting near them watching the sun rise or set. And I rarely have to make small talk with someone I don't want to. I repeat, I know I am lucky. I had to wait until I was in my late 40s to do this, and it is probably one of the only dreams I have had since a small girl that has always endured, and I am now there. And shortly I will be off to do one of the best jobs of the day. Late night checks/hay/water. And of course pony kisses. I know this is a very self indulgent post, but sometimes it is good to show appreciation for what we have and not be hankering after more. xx
