Saying Goodbye and Looking Forward

Well, I sold Pi today. Not for as much as I’d hoped. (You never get what you hope with horses. You always lose money on horses. Making money is not the point of horses.) But I feel really, really good. He’s going to a great family, to be the companion to a young girl, and by all reports they just bonded with each other instantly. I couldn’t be happier. This will be so much better for him to be the center of someone’s world instead of me kicking his ass to do canter pirouettes.

I am sad, and it has me thinking about Steppi. For the first time in more years than I care to remember I am without a horse. So I need to rectify that as quickly as possible. The Lusitanos will be in place and ready to ride after the 17th of November. This is starting to butt up against Thanksgiving, but I don’t want to wait until after the holiday. I need a horse for my birthday and Christmas.
