if it's not the horse it's the rider

woke up this morning with a dodgy leg, which hasn't improved over the day. it's EITHER a pulled hamstring, OR sciatica - all that wrestling with feet catching up with me, not assisted by tossing and turning to get comfortable in bed. Either way, I've been limping and twinging all day so didn't think riding was a good plan! mucking out wasn't totally easy, didn't bother emptying the barrow just left it in the stable.

Monf has kept his fly mask on, which is good - he wasn't too upset being in overnight, which was also good, hadn't got so bored as to wrestle rugs to the ground or whatever

as usual, the vet always makes it look easy getting ointment into the eye, but doing that oneself is never as simple! but managed it....

  1. SO sorry. Once again, I can sympathize. Worst is, all you need to do is twist in the wrong direction at the wrong time, and come up lame....when you think about it, we are more fragile than our horses.

    Feel better and do try to take it easy.
