I'm envious of your auditing deKnuffy's clinic -- truly a master and I would love to have that opportunity. And I get your mental attitude comments. I'm still "recovering" from Winston although I didn't get hurt nearly as badly as you. I still make excuses not to ride at times and feel apprehensive before going out to get Lucy - and then she's wonderful and I remember how much I love riding. And then the next day, I feel apprehensive again... It takes time; a long time. I'm glad you are working through it.Oak Creek Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02875705582058188289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005422562901601859.post-52547297439100406532014-10-15T22:05:21.092-04:002014-10-15T22:05:21.092-04:00Not sure if my comment went through so posting aga...Not sure if my comment went through so posting again just in case - had been checking in regularly, then didn't the past few days, then emailed today and suddenly thought I should stop by the blog again and - yay - here's a new post!<br /><br />So glad things are moving forward.
