Yesterday wasn't my day either. I *hate* getting up in the mornings, so I'm chronically running late. Yesterday I took my pony out of her stall to put her in the little paddock, as we usually do, and she took off as soon as I took the halter off... out of the paddock and into the barnyard. She's recovering from a mild bout of laminitis and is supposed to be very quiet, nothing more than a walk... For about 10 minutes she refused to be caught, and I was telling her all the wonderful things the French could do with her. Horse and gravy, horse stew, horsey pot pie, horsey over rice... When I turned around my horse owning neighbor was standing in my barn, she came over to borrow something. Wonderful day... ;) Hope today is better for you!
