I started at Courage Reins about 3 yrs ago with a tramatic brain injury for physcial therapy. I have had a great trainer and supporters there! I am not perfect however I have made major strides in my recovery in my balance and contections from the brain to rest of my body. Its exciting and I feel such gratitude for all those who have been involved in my healing process.
Since I was little girl I have known I was going to the Olympics. I have never forgotten that dream. I was good at jumping horses and excellent at soccer.. It was one or the other that I wanted to excel in towards Olympic dream. Its amazing how life can throw lemons at you!! I developed the attitude of gratitude with each lemon. The lemonade from those lemons have been so sweet and delilious! At this time of my life I have been given the opportunity to make more lemonade!! Yeah!!
I am in the beginning stages of picking a horse out for my journey. I will meet him on Wednesday, tour the facility and get a great idea of what is expected of me. The owners have given me a chance to ride him for a (lease) month I have changed trainers and will be training in Park City! This isn't going to be cheap!! This horse is $15,000, saddle will be between $2 to $3k, bridle about $500, bit about $150 and I haven't even started with vet, board and training! HaHa... I have a plan. :-)
I understand practice makes perfection. There will be lots of tears, some disappointment, craziness, excitment, graditude, joy and so forth. Thats nothing new to me!
More to come but first I need to make dinner, I am hungry..
