I never get kicked…..

Now I’ve been kicked TWICE in one summer…..!…..

*****Don’t EVER believe when someone says*****

………….don’t worry………….my horse doesn’t kick………….

…………………………….they don’t know…………………………….

…………………(BTW…..ALL horses can kick)…………………

Apparently…..my horse kicks…..!…..

I don’t have any photos…..(I still haven’t found (I’ve lost) my camera)…..

…..(I’m borrowing my younger daughter’s camera now)…..

…..(but I really wasn’t prioritizing taking pictures in that situation anyway)…..

I don’t know why Addy kicked me……?…..

It saddens me…..there was no reason…..(that I could see)…..

But at 18++ hands, she has the largest hooves that I’ve ever seen on a horse…..

…..they’re bigger than our Fiestaware dinner plates…..

And she walloped me real good with her hind right…..

…..the only good thing was that I was up close to her…..so she didn’t get the best arc/trajectory to her kick…..

…..but I did…..

…..she “arc’ed me” big time…..

…..(why is it my reading glasses always fly so far?)…..

I’ll worry about my artificial knee later…..(it’s too swollen to even bend right now)…..

I’m counting my blessings…..and being optimistic…..

I’m out of the wheelchair…..

I’m on crutches…..

And today…..I got off the toilet All By Myself…..!…..

Tra!  La!

Soon…..I’ll be able to chase Addy around the pasture and smack her with my crutches…..

But for today…..I’m happy with going to the bathroom all by myself…..

Celebrate the little things…..
