Stupid head cold is stupid

I went to the barn with plans for riding. It felt like it had been so long and I just wanted to ride my girls. I had been dreaming about riding them, about the way they move at the canter and how I have to sit at the trot.

Breeches and paddock boots are great riding equipment, but can’t overcome a fever. I had felt okay earlier in the day. I felt light headed and not able to focus, so I brushed the girls and went home.

Can’t ride or work with the horses when not completely there with them. Space cadet, fever-brain isn’t safe. Better to ride it out at home, even if I’d rather be riding.

    Just an update on the roof situation and the water in the crawl space. The HOA did indeed send a very nice man from Ark Roofing over to look at the roof. It was fixed today (before we get more rain tomorrow). That was a relief. I’ve also been pulling water out of the crawl…
