I’m going to say that twice so it sticks in my head: I absolutely do not have funds for a custom-made sword.

Having fun with liberty work today.

I’m going to keep moving through this horseshit with as much color and courage as I can muster.

Grateful for the privileges that keep me warm and dry.

No matter what’s going on in the world / my life, my horses carry me through. I don’t even have to get on.

This was a crazy year with my horses. From surgeries, broken bones, and even a life saving cancer surgery to remove a MASSIVE tumor on the grey mare, we all are blessed to be here and happy! #horses #yearinreview #2024recap #cowgirls #ranchhorse #reinedcowhorse #disabledequestrian #followyourdream

Snowy ground with hoof prints creating deep impressions, exposing dirt.

Brain trauma problems: I have time & energy to ride today…but I cannot tolerate the high contrast light & shadows of hoof prints on snow. The ground looks like it’s moving. It makes me dizzy & nauseated. It’s worse when I’m moving. #horses #WearAHelmet #DisabledEquestrian #TraumaticBrainInjury

Recovered from the latest migraine & reoriented myself by playing in the sandbox with my pony…which sounds more appealing than “worked in the arena with my horse.”

Some days it does feel like work, but today was pure fun.

Brain trauma sucks some days more than others. This whole week has been rough.

If you enjoy high-risk sports, wear a fucking helmet. Please.

Spending some time with Jetta, who has lived with us for 20 years this autumn. She’s 29, about the equivalent of an 85 year old person. We still ride her, just gentle ambles around the pasture.
