Just for the folk here who have known me since the early NR and may remember how I loved the wonderful Maisie when she arrived on our yard 10 years ago. And how OH told me to pretend she was mine and ride her as often as I liked. She arrived fit only for hacking and flew with me. I had so much advice on NR on how to manage her. In spite of her speed, her health has never been good, and the vet has been a lot lately, so I felt this coming. She is too sick to be ridden and now is retired.
I have spent more time loving riding that horse and thinking about her than any sane woman ever would. I thought of her a lot one day when we were in Cody, Wyoming in 2005. No doubt, I will groom her and weep into her mane.
She isnt my horse and losing her isnt like when a person gets sick and dies, but these animals we love get under our skin and I am so sad. And she will disappear from my story now.
