Indeed, another one bites the dust...
I fell off my beloved Orion yesterday during the biggest competition in my life, so far
We were show-jumping and made the first round without any problems at all! And we made it to the final. On the first fence, I misjudged the distance and asked him to jump earlier then planned... The result: Orion's front legs bashed through the fence, and he fell on top of it. And me? Well, I had a nice meeting with Mother Earth... And for once! I landed safetly on my butt! But here comes the hurting part... I somehow managed to injure my leg, so the entire competition was over for me when I sat in the car on the way to the emergency...
But happy news: I got third place, and a lovely blue ribbon

And in dressage I managed to get sixth place! With a whopping 58.33% score!
Today I did all my walking on crutches... And I'm really tired now... So no more walking for me I think... Aaaaaand I got another ribbon today for being in the competiton. So I stood proudly beside my white pony on my lovly crutches as I got the ribbon. And now everyone knows my name because of my fall XD

Orion has just left, and gone back to his owners... I miss him already. I had him for two months and he was perfect for me...
But I will see him during my vacation and most likely he will be back during the fall

But next year I will be back stronger and more trained then ever! So look out horsepeople! Surely I did bite the dust, but that does not mean I have give up!

And thanks to all those who has supported me and cheered me on! You know who you are!
And a big thanks to all of my friends online that cheered me up after the fall!

Charlotte, over and out^^
