Entries for November 2008

You know how things go just how you want them to? Not exactly how you "envisioned" it, like a wedding brat, but just how you *wanted* it to be? That how this went down...which is perfect, because I'm retiring Feliche from hardcore eventing this year, and that was our last major competition with each other

Dressage was wonderful--especially compared to last time. He was soft, responsive, and round. He wasn't terribly forward, but I'm not sacrificing the other good things...

Feliche's hurt his foot. I found out today what it is, and I'm kicking myself for not seeing it earlier, but I'm somewhat relieved just KNOWING it's something I can actually see.

He was limping a bit the day after XC. My thoughts were OH no...he stepped on a rock and hurt his foot. Again. RIGHT before a comp...and we're doing training. First time and last time. One great last stand for the Feechee man. Maybe. Because I don't know how bad this is! The good news is it's NOT a stone...
