Hi.
I am starting to worry if 2012 is not going to be a good year for me. Each year I hope they get easier but they don’t seem to. Today for example I found my beautiful colt with a stake right the way through his back leg. Thanks God my auntie was there and managed to pull it out. Anyway after a heavy session with the vet, I thank God he will miraculously be OK.
Dakar went to a dressage show at the weekend with Nora, this was very good and he behaved perfectly and got some good scores. She was pleased and I am now selling him as a potential dressage horse. I had my first customer today, it went well and she will come back Thursday for a second look.
The horses seem on good form and I wish I could say the same about me. I am all over the place at the moment wondering this and wondering that, driving myself mad, really. Hopefully I will settle down this week and concentrate on my two big shows. Saturday Sabbers has an accumulator and a possible area trial, and Romeo is going to Fellbridge which is supposed to be as spooky as hell. For some reason I am  optimistic.
Sometimes I have a certain calm about things and I know they are going to be OK. With this horse I feel this. I hope for once I’m right.
I had a tennis match today and I played awful. The worst I have ever played, which was annoying as I could not pull my self back. I need so much practice and I hate letting my self down when I know I can play so well.
Tonight I am feeling down as my vet has fallen ill. He is a very close friend and I am feeling low. I am praying for a turn around in luck as I appreciate its all a learning curve, but I feel there are no end of lessons for me to learn.
