It’s going great with Apollo. He’s in the perfect spot now. Keep up the good work on the post grad math course. Little by little, it will get better and you’ll have it down. 🙂

I love the idea of changing the "I should", to "do I need to , do I want to?" statements. How wonderful that Red's owner was there at the time and you were able to rectify the paddock situation. Hallelujah. Is that still working well?

In regards to tips re coping with stress. I have recently started a post grad maths course, as part as teaching maths part-time and have often felt overwhelmed. I am trying to remember not to say "I can't do it" or "what have I done?" but to take some deep breaths, take a break, sit outside for a bit or take a walk outside and remind myself, "one step at a time", and work out what that next step needs to be. Keep it simple, etc, etc. 🙂
