Is it just me?? but every last penny goes on my horse and I cant help it
My OH has a posh work 'do' coming up at a posh hotel and of course im invited. Looking at me one evening last week slobbing on the sofa in jogging bottoms and smelling of horse he noticed that i was going to require some financial investment to get me up to show standard! He therefore generously gave me some money to get a manicure and buy a dress for his work do. (i think he was imagining how collegues of his would recoil in horror at the sate of my horsey hands while passing the wine!)
Anyhow quite excited by the prospect of a manicure i have gone and got it much too early and a couple of days at the yard its pretty much wrecked
In regards to the dress iv'e spent the money already... not on a dress but on a new bridle for my horse, a new martingale (well 2 a running for jumping and a standing for hacking) and a pair of reins (which ive just noticed are broken, grrrrr)
I dont even need a new bridle!!! I justified it by saying that she has a loop for a flash on the other bridle and I dont often use the flash, also her old bridle is a brown mark todd bridle and the leather doesnt match my saddle. I didnt even need new martingales either but my old 2 match my mark todd bridle and my new bridle is a jeffries and therefore darker brown.
Is anyone else like this??
My OH has just asked me how the dress hunting is going. oops, will he notice if I wear the same one as last yr???
