I should change my nic to falls2much

I came off Tanza again Sunday.   Grrrr.   All he did was wheel and bolt and I should have been able to sit through that and pull him up.   And I should have been able to head off the spook completely but I think I projected my concern of his reaction to wind blowing the corn to him so when I decided to turn around rather than have him being goofy he was like "and lets get out of here FAST" 

I'm not quite feeling like I have to sell him and get a fuddy duddy horse, but am quite annoyed with myself.  I might have realized he was going to be very high energy hanging with Grey and getting extra food and not ridden in 2 weeks so maybe I should just stay in the paddocks to begin with but nope, off I went on my still fairy green 5 year old like he was one of the old solid horses.  I keep conflating how well he has done doing LD and the family trail ride as being the same as a lot of wet saddle blankets and training, but I was very careful with him on the trail ride and have even recorded frustrations with his baby mind "aaack I'll die if I get held back from the group" mindset right here on my blog.  

Oh well "horses gonna be the death of me,  BUT WHAT A WAY TO GO"   I ride as a break from mental concentration of work and that is why I trail ride vs showing but I have got to learn to do a bit of thinking with the riding.  I'm getting too old and don't bounce when I hit hard ground.  

Sadie is doing OK with 'slow feeder' hay bag.   It does not seal at top so she is not slowed all the time I don't think and will not be until I add some clips or something so she has to only eat through the netting.   I've been feeding Sadie in hay bag and Lady just in trough, mainly because the 2nd trough keeps getting shoved way away from the fence and I was tired of having to walk out and move it back but I think its also good for Sadie to have to work on her hay so she is not done right away and then just being shooshed from the 2nd hay feeder.  

Now I should get snow tires out and on my car.  It is supposed to snow Thursday and I don't want to drive twisty mountain roads to PITA work review (with tiny 'retreat' aspects) on the "all" season tires that do not have a whole lot of tread.
