Yep, I really did it!!!! All by MYSELF!!! I pulled the Horse trailer! Not only did I pull the trailer, but I backed up the SUV, hooked up the trailer, checked the lights and pulled the horse trailer to my daughter's school to pick up Kevin (the lamb) and bring it home AND I backed in the horse trailer and parked it up under the barn overhang ALL BY MYSELF!!! Yep, my husband was impressed, not only impressed that I actually did it, but that I didn't call him for any help, advise, emergency or "freaking out".
I must admit when my daughter informed me before bedtime the night before that we needed to take Kevin up to the school for her Ag teacher to weight him, I was less than thrilled. My husband did manage to get me to pull the trailer once before with one of the horses in it, but I narrowly missed the curb in a turn (I didn't know it until HE told me!). So I was very worried about the whole ordeal. This was also only my second time to not only pull the trailer but back it up. Which if anyone has ever had to back up a hitch pull knows it is odd and backwards to back up.
BUT I did it, I did it, I did it. I felt like breaking out in song like the men, Professor Higgins and Colonel Pickering did in "My Fair Lady" when they successfully transformed Audrey Hepburn from a flower girl to a royal woman and were extremely proud of themselves. I DID IT!
