Best Laid Plans

So. Um. I know I told you all that we were just doing the eq this weekend, some XC schooling next weekend, and maybe a pleasure division at a local show in October to wrap up our season.

But then this happened.

So we’re gonna go do that instead.

100% sure that I’m only invited because people that actually qualified decided not to go, but WHATEVER WE’RE GOING TO ZONES!!!! This was not even remotely on my radar as a possibility this year. Like, at all. Which of course also means that I did not budget for this and will have to get creative with how to pay for it. I only need one kidney, right? RIGHT??

Man, you guys. You know I get so sappy about Francis, but can you blame me? He’s helping me achieve all these dreams I could’ve never imagined. It’s our first year in the division, we just had our true move up in April, I was doing the 0.80m/0.90m only a little over a year ago. And now he’s taking me to Zones for the Highs.

He really is the horse of a lifetime.

      It basically is a fairy tale, with a hint more manure and green slobber (so, you know, better) đŸ˜‰

    Congrats! That’s the happiest email surprise I’ve seen in a long while! And yes, only 1 Kidney required for survival. You’ll be just fine.

    I think there are some other organs you can do without, too … Go Frankie and GO YOU!
