R's text the other day: "want to go hacking on Sat?" Yes, yes I do. 😂 Like zero hesitation, that is absolutely the best idea I've heard in ages. lol wow it's been way too long, both for the social aspect and the pony aspect.
Arrange meeting time, weather is perfect - like 28 and sunny. Amazing. Even just getting dressed to go -- putting on riding pants made me feel so right. Like wtf? Riding pants are the least attractive most uncomfortable things ever... But they've been a part of my life since I was in single digits so, I guess they're the clothing equivalent of comfort food ;-P Unrelated - I was awfully glad they still FIT given the amount of recently consumed comfort food *g* I didn't try the boots - partially cause they haven't moved here yet and partially cause... I don't want to know ;) Paddock boots and half chaps for the win.
So yeah - was a little discombobulated when I got there as I don't know the barn or where stuff lives or any of the people, but R was well into having both ponies already tacked up (luxury!) so I really didn't have much to do...
Proof! lol R snapped this completely unbeknownst to me while we were on our adventure. |
But yeah - went for a perfect hack in amazing weather wandering around areas I don't know at all and getting caught up :) The year that wasn't definitely taught me how much I miss my friends when I don't see them for too long. lol I don't necessarily notice at the time, but then when I do get to see them it's like yes, that. That is what was missing.
Anyways - was just a lovely break from reality. And THEN, I got to go to my parents place to meet Coco! Mum's new puppy :) Coco is from the same breeders as Bailey, and came home today.
Introducing Coco :) |
Next Saturday will be term papers. Far less fun somehow ;-P
