Riding...sorta!

On a physical therapy bike...working towards the real thing.  Ankle is getting stronger and I am chomping at the bit, tho it is the thought of mounting, using that ankle which stills makes me gulp! Hopefully by Chistmas I can ride.  Thankgiving was lovely but quiet this year as all the kids were travelling.  Always lots to be thankful for, our health, kids and grandchildren, and orthopedic surgeons !!! Hope everyone has a great holiday season.

Hand walking ....


 I was fit enough to watch the grandkids for the weekend! These two little ones are a joy to have around and if I can't ride, then I'll happily be Grandma. Handwalking is going well. This is two months post injury and the ankle break seems stable enough to take steps even without the cane.  The doc says no boot by  December so I ordered a "big" mounting block. Shipper said they are having supply chain problems so ... fingers crossed, soon to be back in the saddle. Friends are keeping the horses fit and I, meanwhile, discovered Tik Tok!  There are some really hilarious, stupid ways to waste time on the internet and I found some very exotic horse breeds.
