after birth. We used to have to wait until they were 2 years old, and some of them were quite "manly" and hard to handle by then. Now the vet does it within the first couple weeks.
It's amazing to me how things change. I wonder why it took so long to figure out that early neutering is fine.

Will write more to you shortly - have a lot to say (sm)
Quickly I want to say this - first, many of the rules that you are living by are self-imposed. You are extremely intelligent and eccentric and you are creating a mental cage for yourself, trapping yourself in your own mind by saying that you can't do this and can't do that. I have trapped myself in situations for years before realizing that it was within my own power to set myself free. It is for you too. Saying that you can't work for other people is inaccurate. It may be true that you do not want to work for others or do not enjoy it but it is not true that you cannot do it. Many people don't want to work for others but you may have to do it at least in the short-term while you wait for your online businesses to take off.
Also, as far as getting psychiatric help you can go to the emergency room. When you feel that you should never have been born, that is a sign that you need to go and get help. You need an antidepressant. At the very least you need some fresh air and sunshine. I will write more later.
Awesome. There will be someone on shortly to tell you..
why to feel grateful for that.
horses
I can't speak from personal experience, but my 16-year-old daughter had a pretty bad accident recently. She was loping her 3-year-old gelding in the riding ring when he got off the bit and decided to haul butt. He did a rollback and ended up ramming her into a wooden fence post, where she hit her face pretty good, before throwing her off. She hit a wooden fence post with her face and was pretty well banged up.
She had a show to ride in that weekend, so she did end up back on him in a day or so, but I recall her saying she was a bit freaked out about loping with him for a couple of weeks after that. She got a new, harsher bit for him after that incident, and that seems to have tamed his wilder ways for the most part.
I'd say it's normal to feel scared about it, but if you want to keep riding I don't think there's much else to do other than jump back on and get to it. Xanax might help too. Haha. For what it's worth, she's gotten over it now. It was about 5 months ago, I think. Elmo sure did learn some new words that day though! Oops!!
Good luck!

Your Horses
Aww, you have horses? My daughter loves horses. Do you live on a farm in PA? It's too hot for me too. The humidity really gets to me. I told my daughter unless we were in the pool we were going to stay in the house in the air conditioning all day long.
I will be shortly - school bus driving - sm
$60 a day for about 3 hours of work, about the same I make for MT. I will be very PT at first as I am only a substitute once I finish my training (10 hours of driving with students is all I have left to do). But eventually I will have my own route, then I will probably cut back to about 300 lines a day, or about $600 a month. Don't want to over do it.
Best care of their horses?
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to elaborate on this subject further, The information provided below was for anyone to learn more about Premarin collection if they so chose to. My link had nothing to do with Peta whatsoever, another whole different organization altogether. The best care of their horses, that really is not true, as I am sure you would see if you read up on the subject. Keeping horses confined in stalls up to 6 months out of the year not being able to lie down hooked up to urine collectors is not the best care. As well as all the unwanted offspring that are sent directly to slaughter houses after being fattened up. Please please inform yourself on the subject that is all I wish for. There are many other alternatives to premarin. I hope you will consider one of these in the future, not only for your own health, but for the welfare of the Premarin mares. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss this very very important issue further.
