Ready....Ok Maybe Not!

It's been a hectic week. Work has been crazy so I have been frantic in the evenings to ride before sunset and it is leaving time for little else.  Like blogging.  I appreciate your feedback on my Horse Showing series and will continue to do those.

So you know how I've whined about wanting to move up and why am I not moving up??  Trainer said I can move up this weekend and now I want to throw up and I am completely panicked.  I am having a case of the "I can'ts."  I can't jump 1.25m!  How do I go from 1.15m (3'9'') to 1.25 (4'1'').  4 inches doesn't sound like much but fucking sounds ridiculous to me right now.  And the oxer spreads get wider.   


I wasn't planning to show Friday but now I am.  So here I sit stuck at work, trailer isn't packed or even hooked up.  I have a shitload of stuff to do when I get home and now I am freaking about moving up.

So stayed tuned to see what happens with this shit storm.  I'll try to update on IG (luvjumperlife)!  If it does not go well the pics might be of wine.  In mass quantities!

    Wine to toast your victory or wine to drown your sorrows- wine is good for every occasion! Hope you have a totally fantastic show!

    You can do it! But that's a huge jump, so I understand your concern. We have a modified division at a lot of shows here, which helps. Good luck! Y'all will be amazing :)

    Exciting! I did the move from the Adult Jumpers to the Low AOs this past WEF. I was nervous at first, but it's really not that different once you get in there. Just have to trust your horse's scope. It looks like Poppy has plenty!
