Awareness of the outside world. Filled out my quarterly survey for the Johns Hopkins COVID Long Study. I have signed up for the repeating version. Looks like they will take single entries, “Participation includes a one-time, 20 minute survey.” ibid. I’m fine – which I am very happy about – but it makes the survey a long list of nope, none of the above, I’m good. I have to remind myself that every study needs control subjects. That’s me, a human baseline.

Razzy
The Hunter Place
July 2025
Razzy was her usual stellar self.
Much quieter at a walk to start, yay. A semi-private lesson, as the first one was. She wasn’t alone in the ring? I was different? The phase of the moon was different? Dunno. Just happy to stroll around the ring.
Canter exercise was half-seat down the long side. A small part of me heard the call of cross-country. Razzy was not averse to a touch of zoomies.
Will I be posting an ears photo from every lesson, even though it is essential the same photo every time? At the moment, yes.

Ears are always welcome!
Yay for Razzy!

I like ears photos. Keep ’em coming. How tall is Razzy? Remember, Priney was only 13.2. Has your mom seen the photo of you in the dressage ring with your legs below her belly? I love that one.
Keep ’em coming! Lessons are good… even short lesson or long lessons or slow lessons or fast lessons.Btw, I’m going through lesson withdrawal syndrome. MM
Yay for lessons! I will ask about height.
