I am feeling much better now that my first trimester of pregnancy hell is over! I am able to ride again, which is such a delight. Susan gave me a good tip the other day while at my place...since I can't manage the sitting trot so well, she suggested I do all my lateral work in rising trot, but on the opposite posting diagnal for shoulder-in and counter shoulder-in, and then for half pass, go back to my correct posting diag. What a difference that made! I was able to keep my balance and still be effective with posting half halts. So now we get to do everything we did before an alien invaded my body!
Final is doing well. He's worked hard the past 5 days, so he gets today off, but it's back to work tomorrow.
At this point, I'm just thankful for every ride, since I never know how I'm going to feel tomorrow, or next week, or next month. This pregnancy stuff is not for the weary, it's HARD!!!

Bronze Medal
I'm proud to say that Final has helped me earn my Bronze Medal from USDF. My beloved Yochi got the scores we needed at First Level, and Final helped me get the scores needed at Second and Third Levels. I'm pretty proud of my boys! They've taught me so much.
Up next, Silver Medal.
Up next, Silver Medal.
