137. Respect... its as easy to gain it as it is to lose it...

During the last few days it has been absolutely roasting! We are officially having a heatwave so i have left Spice to her own devices as i have no desire to work in this heat so don't see how i can expect her to.

Her hooves are going from strength to strength and i can't wait for her next trim.

As soon as the heat wave is over i am going to start lunging her but the great thing is she is actually looking super considering how little i have done with her. Yes, she's lost a bit of her top line but on the whole she looks brilliant.

The really good thing at the moment is that over the last few days i have been approaching Spice with a sort of no-nonsense attitude i.e what i say goes...as i was beginning to feel like she'd lost a bit of respect for me but just being like this for 2/3 days she has quickly reverted back into her pleasant respectful self and not the spoiled little princess i was fearing she had turned into!

It amazes me sometimes how quickly you can lose respect and how quickly you can gain it...

The other good thing that i probably shouldn't really talk about too much as it's still early days and has nothing to do with horses is that i just found out i am pregnant which is both crazy, surreal and wonderful all at the same time. But i promise not to talk about this too much!
