45 minutes for a sketchy groom and careful tack-up, for a 10 minute ride.
A blissful 10 minute ride.
So grateful for this pony.

Happy Imbolc! A blessed Lenaia! A joyous full moon to you!
And just to put a cherry on top, today is Fiona's (chosen by me) birthday, since it's close to the day we brought her home 8 years ago.
Pic of Fiona cuz she's gorgeous.

So chuffed to be able to get aboard today! Oh, so wonderful to be in the saddle again!

@eschneider.bsky.social and MNG have set the bar too high.
She’s really not a ‘orrible twat, but she sure hates selfies.
#horsesofmoonshadow
Missing my old sweetheart, my fireheart, my ridiculousness, this morning.
I blame @eschneider.bsky.social .

I like Bluesky but if I take my eye off it for a second, it goes totally political, and that's not good for my soul.
I need more ponies, more Greek mythology, more trees, more ahhhhhh.

The chonkiest, roughest-coated Pegasus ever!
#horsesofmoonshadow
Took this one for my miler today. Bonzai was super butthurt. Fiona takes it as her due.

Love my pony so much.
Mounting from the right was awkward and clumsy today, but she tolerated me beautifully. Then we just walked around the farm.
Heaven.
#horsesofmoonshadow
Mounting practice and a little walking today. We are very pleased with ourselves.
#horsesofmoonshadow
As @chickgonebad.bsky.social says, I melted my pony
#horsesofmoonshadow
When you want to flounce out dramatically but you also really really want a treat.
#horsesofmoonshadow
This is from a few years ago.
Got more wrinkles and saggier arms now.
Fiona is prettier than ever.
#horsesofmoonshadow
Fresh from her bath and already skeeving on snax.
#horsesofmoonshadow
Look at her stinkeye. She’s so over me.
#horsesofmoonshadow
An old pic of us after a lesson. I can't ride that long now, nor do more than walk, but I sure hope to get back to it.
My pretty baby.
#horsesofmoonshadow
In honor of our friends @eschneider.bsky.social and MNG.

I'm feeling mean this morning, so to sweeten myself up, I offer this pic of my beautiful round pony, Bojangles.
Lost him 16 years ago and still miss his naughty self.
Isn't he adorable?
#horsesofmoonshadow
The news is just too dire today. I can't do no more. Gonna flop down right spang upon my privilege and nestle into my farm today.
Here's my pretty baby.
#horsesofmoonshadow
It's not actually Fiona's birthday, but it's the day I've chosen to plug it in. She's 16 today!
Happy birthday, sweetheart. You light up my life.
#fionaface #horsesofmoonshadow
My Jasmine and me. How I miss my old blue girl.
#horsesofmoonshadow
I dreamed last night that I had dreamed her death, and that she was alive and glorious and waiting at home for me. When I realized it was a dream (within the dream) it was devastating. I woke crying.
My Best Girl.
#horsesofmoonshadow
Nik and I at one of our first shows. Prior to this photo she wrecked the dressage ring. Sure wish my shoulders weren't so round.
