Getting Back...

So, I've been having a motivation low on the horse front. There are so many things to do and never enough time... and I need a nap.
So, in the effort to not come home absolutely exhausted after work and giving lessons, I got up way early and rode Tilly this morning. Of course, then I had to shower and rush off to work to make it in on time, but it was really pleasant to get a horse worked early in the day.

It's wonderful how much more like a 'real' horse Tilly is starting to feel. She no longer feels like a wobbly little pony, but a little horse learning the basics. Of course, I realize that I've had her for nearly a year and have yet to have a picture or video of me riding her, so you all will just have to take my word for it that she's comng along. I'm tempted to throw her in the trailer for the schooling show next week (since they seem to be not ok with me and a student showing RC at different levels... I mean, I could show him training, but that seems unfair). She could make it through an intro test or two... But then I'd catch flack from Courtney for showing in Intro. Life is hard......

Guess it's back to more riding and training...
