What's stopping you riding today?

I know most of us would ride every day if we could but often don't get the chance. If you're anything like me there are days you have to drag your butt out of bed and force yourself to get out there. Sometimes beds nice! I do find the days I can't ride are the days I'm jumping out of skin to get on.

So what's stopping you riding today?

For me I had my wisdom teeth out Thursday so I'm still on pain killers and legally can't drive. But after the horrid ride on Wednesday I need to fix my Ferrari! ( prin's small red and FAST)

Hmmmm, -10 but windchill at about -30, blowing snow & too darn much of it. I try to ride for enjoyment, not hypothermia. Oh & I had to work at 3 pm, so I would've had it even colder in the morning if I wanted to sneak in a ride.

Today - nothing, had a lovely three hour ride with DD. Tomorrow, work - hmph. I cannot wait for the long days of summer when I actually have daylight after I get home and can use it for important things like riding :)

First, pregnant and I feel like CRAP!!! I am nauseous all the time :(

Second, -30's C with the wind, and the snow was flying so much that it hurt when it hit you!

I did go and get horsey snuggles though!

Rode yesterday... today was a lovely day... wanted to be riding, instead stuck in the house doing homework. College can be annoying on those nice spring mornings. I probably wouldn't of made it through a ride today after yesterdays long outing. Need to get my butt back in shape (or at least into the shape it should be)

It was sunny and 70 degrees today so I spent the entire day extending fences so my horses will have more grazing area. I hope I still have 4 horses in that pasture tomorrow!:)

Had church today (takes up three hours in the middle of my day, but wouldn't trade it for the WORLD), then went out to my parents' house for Sunday dinner and to hang out with them since it's the only time I see them, really, since I'm always so busy.
