Happy Sunday!
I had so much fun riding with friends yesterday Goose was great and I'm excited to keep working with him more. I've been rejecting the idea of having any boarders on my farm because it leads to more work and can be stressful trying to keep everything up to the high standards I have for when people come over. However, yesterday was so much fun and I think I have a couple of friends who wouldn't care if I keep up with the weed eating or if the barn is immaculate or not. Part of what I'm learning in therapy is that it's ok to not be perfect, it's not the end of the world if things don't always go as planned and it's ok to let other people help out once in a while. It'd be so fun and less depressing if I had someone to ride with so I'm thinking of asking my friends if they'd like to keep their horses here. They've always asked in the past, but I just felt like I needed a break. Unfortunately, I think I've isolated myself so much that it worsened my depression and has made me pretty miserable. I think I'm ready to reach out to people again. It would be good for my mental health, which leads to more motivation for healthier habits, which leads to better mental health, etc. It's all related.
So, after a fun ride and getting lots of work done around the farm with the hubs, I broke down and had Taco Bell for dinner. It was good, in that horrible taco bell kinda way. Oh well, today is a new day! I'm going to ride Goose, make my hubs go on a run with me and do some more work around the farm. I'll try to make better food choices and definitely drink more water. Nothing strict, just mindful. It's ok to not be perfect! (or so I'm told. LOL!)
Have a great day, ladies
