I went to an initial Pilates session to see if I liked it. Mainly the woman just talked to me about being pregnant, but then we did eventually get down and do some floor work. I didn’t really understand what I was doing or why, and it didn’t feel like much at the time, but I sure felt the pain in the morning! Still, she didn’t give me a programme to do, or a sense of what I was trying to achieve and I definitely didn’t feel like I’d done any sort of workout (you know me, I come from the ‘no pain, no gain’ Jane Fonda style of exercise) . . . think I’ll stick to yoga, thank you very much, so have been harassing poor Rosie for a pregnancy regime.

Two scared horses come home at last
Baby has been a quaking, shaking wreck for a week! I brought her home on Tuesday morning once my foot had returned to approximately normal size and I had spent several hours trying to find them on ‘the other side’. I brought them back to the house side and as soon as Ged’s horses saw my two they started cantering up towards them, so I thought I’d just let them run together and let my two go. Big mistake! They were last seen by George heading up the old ‘road’ up into the hilly ridge and then they were gone all day. Ged came home to help me look for them and after much driving around, we found them looking sheepish and heading back down the self same road they had last been seen haring up with the hounds of hell apparently at their heels. By this time I had locked Ged’s horses in the yards after counselling from my Horse Herbalist. And I brought my two home, washed them down, soothed them with words and ‘Settle Petal herbal remedy, fed them their favourite tasty morsels and then, once they seemed normal and calm, let them go again. Big, big mistake!
George and I dropped a match in the big gully by the house . . . (is that the dragon Baby is so scared of??!!)
