    Default The things we tell ourselves!

    I never wore shorts! Truly as the owner of a stable/riding instructor I wear jeans to ride but times I wasn't planning to ride I still always wore long pants-even when it was 90+ outside. When people asked me aren't you hot I said no and I can't stand bugs getting on my legs- barns are just buggy. That's kind of true but more so I couldn't stand my fat legs. Yesterday after a quick shopping trip I wore shorts and a tank top to the barn...they were a size 8-10!!! From a 24!!! Funny how the bugs weren't so bad- and I was cooler : )

    Congrats on the loss. I'm so envious. I want horses so badly. It is a dream of mine to own enough land to have 2 horses. I love riding!

    Enjoy wearing your shorts this summer!

    Congratulations on the barn shorts. I totally get that whole bug thing... we have three horses. But you are right, it is much cooler in shorts.
