Scout, for me, is almost too much to handle, especially with my back problems. I need to remember that! I appreciate your thoughts.Cheryl Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04211625006758463474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052945428992934827.post-87810798855328957392010-08-13T13:29:29.653-07:002010-08-13T13:29:29.653-07:00Don't be too hard on yourself!

About a year ago my husband was in a bad riding accident that he's only now really healed up from and I have to constantly tell him to be gentle with himself too. Take your time, learn to enjoy the journey and you'll reach your goal before you know it =)JennyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08354580752259815835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052945428992934827.post-42069915804228516792010-08-12T04:55:39.352-07:002010-08-12T04:55:39.352-07:00After my fall two years ago it has been very hard ...After my fall two years ago it has been very hard to get out there and work with Sirocco. I make up all kinds of excuses. I have spent lots of money to get him from a 4 year old that hasn't ever been riddin to a 5 year old that is now broke but just green broke. I am afraid to get out there and work with him even from the ground. But I have finally gone and done it and it was hard making him listen to me but I learned to get firm but not angry. Not easy sometimes!lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01998455958377639450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052945428992934827.post-19305033742391018242010-08-11T10:22:10.234-07:002010-08-11T10:22:10.234-07:00Great to hear Scout is learning manners working wi...Great to hear Scout is learning manners working with the trainer, I'd be worried if she was the same way with everyone.
