Horsey people! And non horsey people!

I know I could post on the tack room but there isn’t always traffic there.

does anyone else (horsey people and non horsey people!) feel completely miserable at the fact it’s almost winter?

I had to bring in my horse from the field and he was completely CAKED in mud- it suddenly hit me that summer is over. Bring on the rain, mud, wind and freezing cold. 6 months of utter misery!

I could cry at the thought of freezing hands, muddy horses, swampy fields and icy roads. I swear there should be a devision of seasonal affected disorder specifically for equestrians being miserable with winter.

countdown to summer begins🤞🏻

Hate it! Hate the change over from out at night to out during the day. We just don't have the time in the mornings and it's just such a rush to get to work/school. And then there's the problem of not enough day light to ride after work/school. Roll on spring!

I used to dread winter with my horses , it's true winter has to be endured and then spring / summer is the treat . I no longer have horses now and don't regret it one bit .

Never related to something more in my life, letting my dogs out into the yard yesterday it just hit me that this was life for the next few months, muddy horses&dogs - which means a muddy house for me too😩. Constantly having to clean the carpets and car etc it drives me insane..
even simple tasks like going up the field to get the horses just become a complete misery, up to the knees in mud. My shepherds have the time of their lives running round the field rolling in mud but it drives me INSANE🤣x
