Well, got up at 7:30 so I could meet my trainer at the barn in Dolany at 10. She was leaving for a horseshow at 11 so I wanted to be on time.....its an hours drive over the mountain to get there, a very pretty drive, through some forests and nice villages. Sadly, she called me when I was halfway there and said she had to leave at 10:30 so I just turned around. No ride on Sweet Sementa today : (.
I rode on Thursday evening and Semi is such a dream. I am a nervous rider, not very strong, nor skilled. But she is so well trained! She even did some beautiful leg yields....
It is hard for me as the indoor is pretty crowded and I am so nervous, I don't know Sementa yet and I am terrified she will run away with me in the jammed arena, chock full of high jumps, concrete walls with eye-gouging apparati on the ledges and fussy stallions. I still don't have my own tack so have to borrow and am too nervous to ride alone. When I can do that, all will be well, as I will go when the indoor is empty. Of course, then I will probs ruin my perfect horse with my shoddy technique......one day. One day I will get there.
