My favourite genes are pearl,SNF and kp
In the game I had to do a full barn Cleanout because i had way to many horses so i cleaned out my barns leaving only three lines pearl, KP, SNF and satin as a side project it was definitely for the better but it hurt to do it

39955-i like all fantasy genes and kitM is lovely :) (I really love most genes!)
I broke a tooth on one of those sugar beads and finally enough came off the tooth and exposed the nerve. So I got my tooth fixed without enough lidocaine to even touch numbing the nerve because it's not safe for the babies. Sad to say he only used bonding so itll need to be redone, have a root canal, or extracted after the babies are here

41431- I like Nexus, Kit M and Blue Roans.

Well last October I dislocated my knee getting into my car. Yah not my proudest moment. I was 40 miles from my house, and the rest of my family had left town for a trip earlier that day. So I limped into the house, and proceeded to almost fall down the stairs while trying to get to my room. Besides my knee causing me horrible pain, it was severely unstable and would give out randomly. Luckily I had a doctors appointment the next day. So me and the doctor talked after deciding I hadn’t broken anything he suggested doing Physical therapy before doing a MRI, so I did PT for November into December. But my Knee refused to get better. So the doctor ordered a MRI. The MRI showed that I had stretched a ligament out to the point it was no longer supporting my knee properly. Now I had a hard decision... do surgery and live with the complications it could cause. Or go without possibly never be able to trust my knee again. I did the surgery; and spent a month in a straight leg brace. If I bent my knee once it would undo the surgery’s work. Then I spent February slowly regaining motion in my knee, as well as muscle. I continued doing PT well into April, but I loathed stairs until June because of pain. That’s 9 months of recovery until I was mostly pain free. I’m still working on regaining body strength, and if I do too much activity I still have pain. I’m glad I did the surgery, but it’s really bad when all of that process is because my 18 year old self got into my car wrong...

48504 - Dun or silver
Starting jui jitsu has been my super hard thing. It's done great things for me. Holy hell, my core is amazing. Within a week of starting, my riding instructor already noticed my posture had improved. It's given me more self defense skills - you don't have to worry about your ability to punch someone if you can put them in an armlock without thinking. But it has been so so hard. I'm not very good at it. Just due to the nature of the sport you "fail" - tapping out, getting submitted - so many times while learning. It's really hard to go from a world where everyone must be perfect, failing is bad, why are you giving up to a world where getting submitted is just another day. It's been such a mental struggle to reshape how I view failure and success as much as it's been a physical challenge.

47805, fave gene is snowflake or kitm appy.
Hardest........well my whole life honestly,
2 years old lost my mom to cancer, at five i lost my grandmother, never knew my real dad so my grandfather raised me and later adopted me.
By the time i was 16 i had been pronounced dead 5 times almost died 25 by now and im 24 years old lol. All of this was all my fault by the way hunting deer from horse back and getting stabbed by a deer, then shattered my knee in cross country and having to put my best friend to sleep bc she broke both front legs and her neck. Then 5 years ago had to have a emergency c-section to deliver my son 5 weeks early and sit in nicu for 4 weeks hopen he would be ok all bc i had kidney failure and the dr had no clue. Then figured out my kidney was dien from a stone that was as big as my kidney and turned septic from retaining fluids.
Now im healthy and loven life getting by day by day my husband lost his job 4 months ago so its been hard but thanks to family and my barn family we are ok and getting by.
There is so much more i could add or say but the forum isnt long enough lol

28079 - favourite gene is Nexus.

Definitely one of the most difficult things I've done is my black belt grading in karate. It's a three full day test where they literally try to exhaust you so completely so that they can see whether, even exhausted to the point of brainlessness, you know your stuff so innately that you can do it anyway, without thought or energy. It's so brutal that every morning you wake up you can barely move because your muscles have seized up so badly from overwork. I spent several full days afterwards just lying in bed too sore to make myself move again lol.

Thanks for all the stories! Everyone, your horses are up in my chat for you! Please only pick up the one with your name on it!

Thankyou my boy is stunning
