A Worrier

Hubs is worried, too.

@UncleJoe That's true and the same with grandkids.

@UncleJoe You're right. I don't have kids so I wouldn't know.

@DianneN Haha, people can get hurt even in tennis!

@moffittjc True! I got whacked in the throat once and couldn't breathe, but hit that ball back to win the game.

I will try, but being a Jewish mother and grandmother doesn't help much. Thanks! We are proud of him, but wish he'd stick to tennis.

@DianneN It can be fun! However, I was on a horse once and I had such a scary experience that I gave up my goal of being a cowboy that day.

I think you are right. No, he started riding for fun this summer.

@kanuck1 That must have been one heck of a scary experience! I hope you found another dream job.

@DianneN I do understand this.He is going to be fine

@amadeo Thank you!

I’m just a typical Jewish mother.

It’s a dangerous sport and he seems to like jumping which scares the heck out of me. I’m a natural born worrier. Thanks!

@DianneN I guess it is dangerous, i personally don't like horses. But it will all be alright!

@jvicentevalera I love to horseback ride and love horses. lol. Hopefully, he will be safe. Thanks you!

Thanks for that!

@Jazz96 Thanks so much! Love you, too!

@DianneN He is right you know....You look like you in your middle 20's

@DianneN hmm.... but you still worry!!!

My husband feels the same way about me. I try not to let the kids know how worried I get.

@DianneN That's true. Just remind him to wear them.

@cherriefic

He turned into be quite a good little athlete. Thanks. He doesn't need a mask outdoors for riding, but should be wearing one indoors with two teams in close contact.

Thanks!

That outfit surprised me the first time I saw him in it. It's nice to know another worrier. My husband is concerned, but he thinks I'm crazy!

Thanks, but I can't help worrying that he will fall or get thrown. Very risky and he's into jumping! Happy Sunday to you, too.

@DianneN I hope he never falls. Hugs right back at 'ya!

Thanks, and I needed to hear those words. My husband thinks I'm crazy! How are you and your family doing?

Thank you! He is always happy when winning. lol

Thanks, Carol.

Of course not @DianneN you've been through it with 2 boys already so now you're more aware of the dangers.

You are so right! @rebelann Thanks for understanding.

You’re right, but I can’t help myself.

@DianneN How old is he?

Thanks! He just started riding about 6 weeks ago. I'm just worried he will hurt himself in a jump. He's so light and skinny.

@jobelbojel He's 10 years old. His sister is 12.

@DianneN I did that in the beginning but I don't now but all of my delivery people wear a mask, with Door Dash too. I just couldn't live that way anymore especially after that trip home from Florida. So far so good, but I do keep social distance except with a very small group of people, a very very small group. Irene and I have stopped wearing masks when we are in her house or mine and Kasey and I mostly meet outside to visit. The boys wear a mask when they are in my house except for Jack and he goes nowhere so he is not much risk. At the Y we keep distance and they are very particular about sanitizing everything. It's a crazy world.

@BelleStarr I totally understand. We relaxed a bit visiting our son's house last week for our anniversary celebration. It couldn't be helped, although he spaced the tables as far apart in his screened in room. He also made us walk through his house, rather then walk through the wet grass to get to his screened room. Sigh.....If we didn't get sick when our grandkids were here, we should be good for a while.

Those non mask wearers freak me out, too! I requested that the Instacart delivery people wear a mask and clean gloves when they deliver to my door. So far, so good! I don't want to open the door to get my groceries with their virus particles floating in the air. I sanitize each item I remove from the bag, then sanitize my kitchen. I'm a nut, but like worrying, I can't help myself.

@DianneN I guess your husband is not and he reassures you all the time.

@LadyDuck He isn't a worrier and tries to pound sense into me. I think he's given up. He is, however, very concerned about our grandson's choice of jumping, and instantly reminded me of what happened to poor Christopher Reeve who was highly trained and experienced. I'm surprised I haven't turned all gray by now.

Of course you are a worrier. We are TWINS! Thanks!

We are so alike. I know how you worry, too. Our kids and even grandchildren are something we will always worry abou no matter how old or young they are. Thank you! He's been surprising us a lot lately and seems to take after his father.

@nela13 Join the worry club! Thanks so much!

@DianneN I already know I will be a worrier for the rest of my life. He is a very handsome young boy.

@hellorahmat . Thank you!

I hope that if he falls he won't be paralyzed.

@DianneN We hope for the best.
