dancing_crowthings I probably should not have eaten today:
1/2 lb of candy corn
medium sized bag of ranch doritos
things that were perfectly OK to eat:
high fiber breakfast cereal with lots of pecans and soy milk
a small tray of spicy salmon sushi from the grocery store
a lot of water
things I successfully eschewed:
all the loose candy at the barn
things that were unexpectedly successful:
putting the Chai tea bag in the cider and heating it up (except, of course, today was warmer than expected and hot cider was de trop)
two horses - Nuada the large patient gray horse is back from his summer on the island, and his person asked if I'd take on the odd ride on him starting today, and I am delighted to do that. I had my lesson on him today. Then Image while the rain pelted down.
J and I do better when Image isn't in the picture, and Image and I do better when it isn't J teaching us. She is very protective of him, and the three of us is bad. Working on another horse, I get better feedback about how and what I'm doing. Working on Image with the clinicians that come through, Image is required to be more forward and more honest, and we get much better work from both of us. It feels slightly uncomfortable to be managing my contact with J such that I ride her horse mostly while she isn't looking. I'll have to work on that some.
