Oh and about impulsive, I never even rode Harley before I bought him. Looked at him for about 5 minutes and said I'd take him. Best horse I've ever bought. Go figure.

Thanks guys. You will never know how much I appreciate the knowing it's not just me and the encouragement. I'm just kind of mad at me today. My lesson cancelled because it's raining and she didn't get rode yesterday. Tue I was so pleased with myself and grinning ear to ear. Most important though was that I had fun. Yesterday good to. Today, ...yes Beaker, I was hoping it would rain and that upset me. I make myself fly. I don't like flying. I don't like making myself ride because I like horses.

Becky, the arena not usuable right now. That would be ideal. I had a choice of the round pen or the grounds. I figured if I was going to fall I would rather it be on the grass than up against the fence. Just something else I have to overcome. The trainer has confidence in the horse and me. I wish I did. Kind of like your friend, it seems more than she sold me the horse but she wants me riding again. She still feels this is a good horse for me. She's even checked to make sure the horse didn't have a hx. She rode her first, walked me, then stayed close and gradually started backing up but still talking me thru stuff. I would just go ride everyday by myself with Eddie but I promised her right now that I wouldn't. Right now, what ever she says go. I can get cocky again later:')
