In which the number remains at three

Today was Pebbles final stage of her vet check. Well actually she had the whole vet check on Friday but Andrew was unhappy with one of her legs and so I decided to have it x-rayed rather than to just turn around and say I wouldnt take her. So this afternoon Mum and I took Pebbles to Hahndorf to Andrew's clinic and he took some x-rays. Unfortunately they showed an injury to the bone just above her fetlock joint. He recommended that she had 4 to 6 months rest in a small flat paddock. As I all ready have Otis on the same diagnosis I have decided not to buy Pebbles at the moment. However, if, in 6 months time Jodie still wants to sell her, I still dont have a horse and Pebbles is sound I may buy her then. But a lot can change in 6 month.
And so I still just have my three beautiful horses (Twistie, Apples and Otis)

Aww :(
By the way, how's your hand? My wrist has only hurt like twice in the last month so I'm pretty much entirely healed.

My index finger still doesnt have full movement, my hand still gets tired quickly but it only hurts when
i have involuntary muscle twitches.
