#EventerProblems Vol. 112: OK Everybody, Just Try to Act Normal

Just kidding. We know acting normal is not in your skill set, and here in the great sovereign state of Eventing Nation that is A-OK. Take it away, EN!

Actually questioned today whether I would be brave enough to run a 3*** when I came across this while on my workout walk/run. Picture doesn’t show how steep the hill is on the other side of this ramp but holy baby bejeezus it was no joke. My first thought was “death.” #eventerproblems #eventerstrong #eventingstrong #eventersofinstagram #xc #crosscountry #horsesofinstagram #equestrianlife

Had to visit the ponies (had to avoid the barn for a few days following LASIX)- how could I not pick out the stalls real quickly? Never mind my CVMA conference attire #thisiswhywecanthavenicethings #barnchic #doctorsorders #barnrat #eventerproblems

When you buy diapers once for your horse because she’s got an abscess and then you start getting baby diapers and formula coupons. Ummm yeah no baby here. Just a big fur baby. #eventerproblems #horseproblems #nonhorsepeopledontgetit
