One good thing I can tell you, kevin: I got a call today from a Cousin in Indianapolis that says a job opened up in his firm that is above my paygrade; but, that he's sure I could do - thinks he might be able to get me in. His boss called and left me a message earlier; so we'll see ;)

So we can talk about horses now ? Good. I should have got back on yesterday. It was worrying me all day today. I figured another 24 hrs and I might be in trouble so I went out there today. I had a hard x making myself get in the saddle. I would put my foot in the stirrup and remember how bad it hurt when I fell and stop. Once I was half way up and backed off
Eddie with me and so encouraging though. Talking about putting me in a restraint so I wouldn't fall off and "just get on the horse or sell him". "I'm not paying for you to walk him around and you are going to cause me to miss surviver". That made me mad and I went right on. I was very comfortable once up and no fears about falling. I rode a little and dismounted with no problems. I think yesterday just a fluke. I did learn what to watch for if you cinch too tight though:') Okie was so good and patient with me. He just wanted out. I saddled him and started out and realized I had forgot his briddle. He didn't really want to go back in which made me feel good that he's enjoying getting out and riding too. I think he was just bored in the arena. He has to look at everything we pass. Some birds flew out of the grass and spooked him a little and he jumped but not much seems to bother him except that crazy stallion he has to go by in the barn. That horse gonna get out sooner or later. The whole door bowing in the middle yesterday.
