Sulking....

[Ample Prosecco]

I am meant to be at Howden Way training today. 1 hr SJ, 1 hr classroom, 1 hr XC, with awesome trainers.

But I can't close my fist because of a hand injury, so can'tt hold the rein with my right hand,

I have practiced 1 handed riding/leg steering and written War and Peace on natural horsemanship with my day off instead. But it is still only lunchtime. What a waste of a much wanted day off. I could do housework I suppose....

Thats depressing I totally know the feeling been laid up with sciatica for over 2 weeks just started to feel a bit normal over last few days, but I missed 2 weeks of lovely weather and couldn't ride and was stuck indoors I was starting to get cabin fever.

Well I went for a run and rolled my ankle. Half way round, in the middle of nowhere, in the pouring rain. That hasn’t improved my sulk

Well I suppose there is some benefit in getting the "sulking" all over and done with together. However, I hate to quote the theme that things come in threes . Just be careful!

So sorry AE, absolutely understand your frustration and hope you get well very soon.
I have some sort of auto immune problem at the moment and tests have shown up what it’s not but NOT what it IS! Can’t wait to be back to normal, it’s interfering with everything!!

My ankle twin! I’ve always said running is dangerous!
Seriously, hope it’s ok.

I’m a bit sulky this week if I’m honest. I miss the days when having my foot in a stirrup didn’t feel like someone was setting my ankle alight.

crikey, mine’s nothing like yours! Your ankle would have needed a trigger warning if you’d posted a pic of it

Well, ankle injury means staying off your feet, so no chance of having to resort to housework! Hope respective injuries heal soon and you can re-book your training?

You could try a martingale stop on the reins, gaffer taped into a tactical position? That way you don't even need to be able to close your fist fully

That ankle looks horrible, definitely don't do any housework on it. I hope it's feeling better in the morning.

on the bright side, at least you’ve got a valid reason not to resort to housework?!

hope you’re feeling better soon and can get out to something to raise your spirits!
