Everybody needs a day like this
 
Well, I'm in the Hospital 😩
This has not been a good day!!! After spending the last two weeks quarantined inside the house, I decided to go horseback riding, something I haven't done in many years. It turned out to be a horrible big mistake!
I got on the horse and started out slowly, but then we went a little faster; before I knew it, we were going as fast as the horse could go. I couldn't take the pace and fell off and caught my foot in the saddle stirrup, the horse was then dragging me. The horse just would not stop.
Thankfully the manager at Market Basket came out and unplugged the machine. He actually had the nerve to take the rest of my coins so I wouldn't try to ride the Elephant...
How many of you actually read what I wrote? If you did, copy and paste for someone else to get a laugh! We certainly need a little humor these days!

The funny part is I remember the days of those machines. Kids begged to ride them. Sunshine

brick010207 04-13-2021 09:29 AM
Good One! Had me til the very end!!

rmd2 04-13-2021 11:00 AM
The funny thing is I used to ride horses a lot in my life. Lately when I think about it I say no...you had a hip replacement, don't do something crazy! But I still miss it.

beeneyra 04-13-2021 11:02 AM
That's what you get for cutting in front of the line.

Me, too with bionic knee and other metal parts. I feel safe keeping both feet on the ground. Love your sense of humor!
