#166 -I'm going to be a shit hot rider...

... when I learn to ride Teddy properly. What a work out today was at ARC. Once I've mastered this my arms will be muscley, by back will be as strong as a wall and I'll have the balance of a ballarina.

I can only hope to get those things quick smart as its seeming a long way off right now. Teddy was a nuff nuff on the ground then let me on without a problem and worked beautifully until the head tossing started. It was still a good lesson I just wish I didn't have to concentrate so hard on not pitching forward all the time. When he gets passed it he's great though. I think we both worked up a sweat today. And we got caught in a hail storm on the way home. Thankfully it wasn't while I was riding.

I've officially joined another ARC so I can have twice the fun, so now I'm with Kyneton and Aurum.

#165 - The best lesson EVER!

Teddy and I had a great lesson yesterday. He spent the day in the yard next to Princess while I was at work and I think he's in love. Apparently they interact over the fence all day. He was so happy and content and I think the drugs are doing him wonders as we are riding so much better.  A lot of things have had to fall into place of course but he was consistent, this help me and my balance and visa versa, and there was very little head tossing. I rode with a big smile on my face.

Teddy is becoming a great horse, but I still think he needs a friend... in time Teddy... in time.

#164 - Fell and Teddy was the perfect gentleman

Yesterday I fell right in Teddy's path and as I hit the ground I was thinking to myself, "What body part is going to get broken, cut up or smashed in as Teddy lands on me?"

But no! Teddy came to a halt with me on the ground in front of him and when I rolled over and looked up he was just looking calmly down at me. All beautiful horsey face! What a perfect gentleman! He was standing within centimetres of me and I just reached out and patted him on the chest as I composed myself.

I did get a frustrated sadness going but I have to say I was very proud of him because he could have easily stomped all over me or buggered off.

I think he cares aawwwhhh!
