Recovering ( sort of)

First off I want to show you these three really cool quilts that came from Ray MI.
`
With no name on them. But they are GOREGEOUS!!! I love the way they made the dissappearing 9 Patch blocks. Maybe you can click on the pictures and see them better!
`
So Thank you to Ray MI!!!!

Second - I have a story - a true story... just happened yesterday....
`
We have a horse -he got himself injured a year and a half ago. He is a big horse and he pulled out his hip. So he has been in Physical Therapy. Bet you had no clue that horses could have PT eh? And I have been his Physical Therapist... (surprise!!)
`
So yesterday it was determined that he should be ridden, that all he should do is walk under the saddle, in the sand and start re-strengthening his hip that way - rather that leading him around.
`
Brave me - I had Wrangler Man help me saddle him as he is WAY tall and off I Went .... into the .... arena. We rode and he wanted to run, and go his own way and I rebeled and made him walk and go may way.
`
We were getting along okay and he was pretending to shy at stupid things, and I was following along with him, and telling him that he would not fool me, when a little girl ( a sweet little girl that we give lessons to) came running out to the arena with the cutest new cowboy hat - and the danged horse shyed faster than I was prepared for. He bucked and I lost a stirrup and I said one bad word, and grabbed onto the saddle horn and reined him around and he finally decided I wasn't worth it and he stopped bucking. This poor little sweet, innocent girl looked at me and said - "you said a bad word".
`
Notice that she wasn't worried that I almost became one with the dust, and then became one with the saddle horn, nor was she impressed that I held on and wasn't crying, nor did she think that I might need some help from some strong ruggedly handsome cowboy.... Nope she focused on the ONE bad word I said....
`
All I could do was say - oops... Now please go get wrangler man, so that you are out of the sight of this horse and maybe he will be a gentleman and stop trying to make me fall off in public.
'
Can you believe the nerve of that horse - making me look bad in front of real live people? I tell ya - I should take away his grain for a month!!!
`
And today - I can feel all the muscles that were used in the making of this episode!
