1st time trotting for Storm & Morgan
There is a time not so long ago I could not even brush my own hair, I was in so much pain with fibromyalgia & arthritis.
This is a small thing for some but it is huge for me.
I brush our Brumbies daily & I could do it for hours.
I can even braid a mane or two it may not be perfect but it’s an achievement and a confirmation for me that the steps I am taking for my health are healing my pain.
These days I am grateful for the little things and love sharing with you all of these small steps.
Evie you are a special pony and just a few days ago you were an untouched wild Brumby, your introduction to water 💦 and your first visit to the salon went really well 🤗
Evie got the full treatment and I’m sure you will all agree she is just beautiful 🐴❣️💎

Taking the Riva for a walk with the magic rope
The weather is a bit cooler today, Telstra said the service has nothing to do with the heat pfffttt, I even got phone reception in the horse yards this morning & a possible buyer for the house.
YIPPEE
But that good news pales in significance for the way my heart sang when I linked with this horse.
For someone who craves touch all I have wanted to do is touch this horse
I have wanted this so bad for the last 3 months.
Tray has been the inquisitive one always wanting to reach out and touch you when your taking a break on the edge of the yards and he is in the paddock next door always sniffing your hat as you ponder what happened with the horse you were working on. Feed time you just couldn’t keep him away and he would stand there for at least 10mins horse nose stretched out to touch Wayne’s hat.
It was always on his terms though (bloody typical man)
He was never forced and never pressured
Whenever we tried to touch him he would flip his sh*t and runaway.
I haven’t rushed you buddy
I’ve let you take your time and come to me when you were ready
Ready to let go
Let go of your past judgements of humans
Let go of your fear
Let go of your resentment
I ignored your antics for a while
You just kept coming back to me
You just kept saying to me
This is Me
take me as I am scars and all
Here I was preaching to everyone no judgement let go draw a line in the sand leave the past behind you
Let go of your fears
Step outside of that box
‘Keep doing what you’ve always done’
Etc etc
But here I was judging you and you bloody knew it!!
That’s why you wouldn’t let us touch you
We hadn’t let go of all that yet
See
I kept telling myself I can’t train him as my first he is too inquisitive he is not an untouched wild Brumby stallion
See you have already been branded you’ve been gelded, you’ve even got battle scars where you were wrapped up in barbed wire on your near side back leg (I’m learning sorry about the technical terms)
