UGGGHHH!!!<BR/>Having had broken ribs before, I don't envy the recovery time. Richard's gonna be quite sore.<BR/>Now, between you and me...if you want to give him a hard time (oh, maybe for being gallant about not going to the doctor)...tell him a joke or a story that will make him laugh (you might want to wait for a week or so though). <BR/>On the other hand...oh, you'll have to decide for yourself. Oh, I couldn't decide what was worse...to laugh and be in agony or to just try...and not laugh.<BR/>On a more serious note...I wish Richard a speedy recovery, he has so much good to accomplish for these horses!Jeanettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02957611498267858588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-42758395545356371982008-12-12T06:11:00.000-08:002008-12-12T06:11:00.000-08:00Oh no!

I do hope he will get better soon!<BR/><BR/>And you too! I know how hard it must be. To want to go out and ride and not be able to. I hope you get to feeling better soon. <BR/><BR/>I am glad the horse is okay. It's so scary sometimes. I used to ride colts all the time, and for some reason, they never scared me. Now a days, I get so nervous. It's aggrivating because I want to ride my colt, I know how to ride my colt, but my nerves get the best of me. I need to get back and ride my old trusty mare to get some conficence. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I am having a toffee giveaway!! I hope you can come over to my blog and get some!! It might make you feel better!!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13155749395336824191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-49374035973171099412008-12-12T05:58:00.000-08:002008-12-12T05:58:00.000-08:00Goodness Woman!

You are right about going to the hospital for at least an xray - to make sure there aren't any other problems....<BR/><BR/>I hope he recovers quickly and I hope you start feeling less pain as well. It must be very hard for people who try and make a living with horses (or anyone that does any physical work) to be laid up with any medical problems. <BR/><BR/>Hope everyone is ok!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01736592362765508427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-54472922717062086422008-12-11T23:32:00.000-08:002008-12-11T23:32:00.000-08:00Oh.. boy.. not good.

No need for spurs to spur them on! just a bit of leg pressure, and they will walk. <BR/><BR/>You should of see today. Today was funny. My horse trots to "trot". When he hears trot, he trots. So, today I my sister riding Dandy. She had me ride first, so she could see what he'd be like today (of course I knew he was going to be a good boy, but then he is my boy, and I know what to expect from my boy) and anyway, we both rode bareback today, and my sister hasn't ridden him a lot, maybe a dozen times, mostly saddle, with maybe a couple times bareback, and anyway, I was telling her, "TROT CALLIE, TROT!" and of course, he would of been happy to trot, but poor ol party pooper Callie, always putting him back in the walk, because she doesn't trot bareback yet. I of course, am cantering on him bareback now. Boy is that fun. But Callie's just not there yet. I'll make her into a horsewoman one of these days. Maybe not an all Arabian horsewoman like myself, but maybe a horsewoman. For her, any good horse will do, but for me, it's ALL about the Arabians! I have some GREAT pictures of her riding Dandy, that I wish I could show you right now. Maybe I'll send you a picture or two tomorrow. I think you'd like that.<BR/><BR/>(((hugs))) take care, and be sure to chew on Richard for not taking care of himself. He at least needs to be eating natural herbs and remedies for healing bones if he's not going to go to the doc. And we all know, how if it's not necessary, we wont go, but I believe now may be one of those necessary times. And chew on him for putting those spurs on! they certainly aren't necessary! especially with your young horses. I cant said I'd wear them, unless I got on a horse who wouldn't go without the use of spurs, but who'd want such an unwilling horse that requires spurs? not me. Who knows what else they may not be willing to do.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01555433402389131682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-3604146076489220302008-12-11T23:13:00.000-08:002008-12-11T23:13:00.000-08:00Oh no!
