We worked on our glamour skills today. After last week's success with Leo, my plan was to ride every day this week. I was really excited to find out if my last ride was just really good luck or an actual breakthrough. Unfortunately, Gigi the saddlebred had other plans for me. I was moving her so that I could clean her stall (I clean stalls 3x a week at my barn), and she ever-so-politely decided to step on my foot with her stupid giant weighted saddlebred shoes (Gigi is the only saddlebred at the barn that actually does saddleseat). I've been stepped on about a million times, and it hurts for like 5 minutes, tops, and then goes away. Unfortunately, this time it didn't - it actually got worse, and now my poor pinky toe is swollen and discolored and significantly more painful than expected to walk on. I'm pretty sure it's broken, but having had broken toes in the past I'm saving myself a medical bill by buddy taping (okay, buddy vet wrapping), icing...
