As a Thoroughbred, Rodney’s official birthday is January first. He turned 25.
So what has he been up to? Sorry to say that Rodney has been put in dry dock, put up on blocks, pick your vehicular storage metaphor of choice. At least for the winter.
A while back, maybe November, I put my saddle in the basement. We have a humidifier down there and the leather will do better there than out in the barn getting damp and cold.
It’s not irretrievable. I can go get it any time I want. The point is that it was not being used.
Will I drag it back out when the weather warms up into the Rodney zone? Or have I had enough of hitting my head against that particular wall? Time will tell.
The good news. Don’t really have any, sorry.
Look on the bright side. It’s not a big deal in the scheme of things. So many people have actual bad things happening to them. Horse is happy & healthy & sound. All true. Doesn’t change the fact that my saddle is in the basement. Ain’t no way I’m going to be happy about that.

Exactly.
