Oh, she not happy. 😳
I like having a job, love my friends and love my family. I love my horses & my pets. I really like the ability to plan for the future. Mostly, I really love my freedom. A lot. (I might have taken all those things for granted but, sure, I'm only human)
This is not a positivity post, or one about appreciation or gratitude. It's a post where your frustration, disappointment & fed-up-ness is more than welcome.
I'm taking a moment to be really disappointed for a moment, cos all this is shit - isn't it?
I'm disappointed my friend's wedding is postponed, that my holidays were cancelled. I'm upset because my plans to see my family are on hold for God knows how long & that I can't go hang on my bestie's couch, drink wine & talk shite.
I'm sad that all the amazing shows & events are cancelled & postponed. That I can't go to a show, a lesson or for a school with Miss G. That she is getting older & every year I'm not guaranteed to be able to compete her.
I'm actually really missing being able to go into Penny's "just for the look." First world problems, I know. I am thankful my family & friends are safe & well when I know others are suffering & have already lost so much.
But we have to be allowed to be disappointed, upset & annoyed, too. Because all these things just compound that we really are herd animals; regardless of whether you're an introvert, an extrovert, a social butterfly or socially awkward - we don't do well on box rest or in isolation from our peers.
We were meant to be in a big field, swishing our tails and rubbing up against each other (accidentally or on purpose 🤷🏻♀️😋) munching grass & meeting at the watering hole for a cheeky gossip.
So feel free to vent your frustrations & disappointments freely. I wont judge.
Stay home, stay safe and help flatten the curve. But don't feel guilty when you feel fed up about all this. Have a rant & get it off your chest. (Then practice gratitude 🙏🙅♀️🤗) But FYI - When this is over, I will be socially interacting all over the joint; free walking up & down shopping aisles, joy riding with trollies!

Miss G, locked and loaded!
Holding on to that feeling that we will get out on a cross country course again... Why is it you miss things most when you're told you can't do them? .
