Anonymous - tha...Thank you all for your thoughts.<br /> <br />Anonymous - that's very true, guess sometimes I just wished it was all easier but hey ho. Patience seems to be the key right now...<br /><br />D. - No idea if I intimidate my trainer, I wouldn't think so as I'm nobody of importance at the yard, just one of many other instructors and an average rider. But who knows. Funny thing is, when I train with her on my own (very rarely) she is almost normal and quite helpful but when we have group staff trainings (most of the time)she undermines what I say and do. Oh the joys, at least don't have to deal with that anymore.<br /><br />Alison - thank you! Yes, I definitely need to get my riding back on track. Have to wait until we move though as teaching and commuting leaves me with nil time for riding. Good idea with trainers' list, will have a good look into who teaches in the area we are moving to.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14036104794835542928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5137999367218100398.post-38538791244254630202009-04-24T14:44:00.000+01:002009-04-24T14:44:00.000+01:00Hi Wiola, What you need is a new and positive trai...Hi Wiola, What you need is a new and positive trainer! Get back on track with feeling good about your riding again and everything falls back into place. I have been where you are many times and at one point in my career was 12 000 miles from home with no support network cloase by so I can id with some of the things you feel. Make a list of people you would like to train with and find out about them.<br />It may be that you would like to train with that person later on...<br />My current trainer is someone I admired when I was 18 and didn't feel ready to have lessons with ( finally plucked up courage when I was 29...)<br />Hang in there!

Just a thought, do you intimidate her? Sometimes people who are so nasty and cutting know they are not quite as good as they wish they were, hence ...nasty. Wonderful to know you are putting down roots in England! Good luck in the house hunt.

It is nice though to get that 'I feel much better' feeling! it is all part of life, ups and downs. The road we are walking is never straight. Many bumps on the way! The trick is how to negotiate each of them! In a way you just started facing them. I know you will cope, just give it a bit of time. Getting used to them, is all that it takes and the summit when is reached will be well worth it! I have seen it and been there myself, I can say Ahhh! that is it......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
