The chiropractor finally called me back. The earliest appointment is July 10th. Arg. It is going to be a very very long June.
The ground work is doing Isis a lot of good. She has muscled up on her rump. She still has a little bit of a hay belly, but she is getting better.
I want to ride. Really really want to ride.
Sometimes sanity comes in the form of a 950 pound bay Arabian. I saw Isis on Sunday after visiting with a friend (or someone who used to be a very dear friend and now seems to have issues talking to me). She and Penny were grazing in the paddock near the barn. Isis saw my…
