hello out there!!

Subject: hello out there!! Tue Nov 23, 2010 6:35 pm

Well I have been creeping around this site for months now, leaving random posts (usually because I need help or advice about something). I know some of you already through facebook, but just want to say say "HI" out there to the the rest of you. I check this site twice a day faithfully as I find it offers great information, support and encouragement, and very often it is just plain ole' entertaining. You guys have made me snicker out loud more than once.

My story is...I had a midlife crisis, bought a BRIGHT green studhorse, and started taking riding lessons three times a week (never rode in my life up to this point). Currently, I either do ground work or ride my "therapist' every day, haven't broken anything yet, and continue to learn much more from my horse than I will ever teach him. It is honestly the BEST money I have ever spent.

Thanks for being here everyone...this is a wonderful site for newbies like myself. It truly makes me feel like I am becoming part of an awesome community of genuine and sincere horse lovers. I only wish I had started this hobby 25 years ago when my back was stronger and my bones were less brittle ;o)

Well speaking for myself... and from those on here that I know.. we all seem to have a wild and varied sense of humour.. I'm thinking it would be pretty hard to offend any of us..with a joke. The bawdier the humour the better.. Am I correct peoples????

^ agreed with MS.

We tend to make fun of ourselves more so than any one possibly could make fun of us. I know myself (and a few others I've spent time with in the ocean lol) aren't fully right in the head.
