It does block their posts as well, but there will be a "view post" thingy to click if you wish to read what they have written at the top of each post they make.

hey, maddy! :--)
nah, hun - just a hiccup, a very emotional issue.
ppl get upset + its catching, in a way - like ripples in a pond, the upset spreads.
i am sure its not the first, and will not be the last; this will pass - and in a few days, there will be another, somewhere else.
its the nature of the human-beast - we have feelings, some of them passionate, and emotions are not logical.

thanks for the kind thought, and please give Ur horse a hug from me -
speaking of feelings, i miss my horses (sniff)

so do i
i got my first-pony at 9-YO, and he was sold to a boys-camp for the younger riders when i was 12-YO + too-tall;
then i got my Arab-cross mare as a 3-YO when i was 14-YO and trained her myself, she had never even worn a halter -
and i bought my Morgan-cross colt when i was 18-YO, and was still teaching him the basics when my mare suddenly died,
literally overnight, in the pasture.
Finnegan had never been alone before; he was distraught - trying to force the fence, screaming whinnies,
galloping frantically around with whale-eyes, sweating all over - i couldn;t trank him anymore, i managed
to calm him a little bit by bringing him into the run-in shed and putting Ginnys blanket out for him to sniff + lip -
but by morning that was not enuf, he was desperate; i had spent HOURS on the phone, trying to find boarding-space,
but nobody wanted a bereaved colt rising 3-YO in their barn, not at any price, so i sold him that night;
the empty fields were a sad sight, that night was awful.

i did not get another horse till i was 30-YO, a big POA mare that was perfect - an easy keeper, smart, untrained
but easygoing temp; i called her Pecas (Spanish for freckles), trained her to a sulky, rode her bareback + Western.
when i moved, the barn-owner where she boarded found a teenager who wanted a horse of her own.
she was between 9 + 12-YO when i bought her, and about 20-YO when i sold her, but U would never know it -
she was solid, athletic, neat-footed, + active.

i rode my friend *annes* retired cow-roper, on their big farm and around the valley - U just had to be VERY careful
not to slip yer feet around in the stirrups, or he;d plant his feet abruptly and grow roots, nearly hurl U from the saddle
if U weren;t paying attn... Gunsmoke was a big rawboned 17-HH bay-gelding, an old-fashioned Quarter Horse
that breeders would laugh at now, but he was a dear solid trustworthy soul, never cranky or mean - kind + willing.

i miss them all - my firebreathing stud-colt, sweet Gingerspice with her ash-blonde bangs over huge brown eyes,
and my tough little Pecas with her piebald mane + tail. making daisy-chains and draping them all over Ginny was a favorite
summer-afternoon, or taking her to the quarry to serve as a diving platform while she stood shoulder-deep...
she never minded, she loved to swim.

there is no place on earth as friendly and homey to me as a barn, with the smell of horses + leather, nickering
and contented small sighs and hoof-thuds... its the definition of peace for me. someday, maybe again...
