So one of the precautions for my back surgery are no 'excessive' bending at the waist. Of course, I am working in the round pen with my horse and drop my cell phone on the ground

. I have my riding tights on and they don't have any pockets. I have just been shoving my phone into the back brace. I don't know if it popped out the top or slid out the bottom but it ended up on the ground. Around my house I have a grabber stick in every room but at the barn...nope. I am just staring at my phone going now what because there is not another (human) soul out there.
I had just called Kyra in and she had stopped about 4 feet away from me...hmmm...maybe she could help? I coaxed her in close...she was looking at me warily because I usually don't allow her in that close but she hesitantly cozied right up to me. Of course I told her to please not step on the phone like she would know what I am saying

. Using her as a balance 'wall', I got down on 1 knee which kept my back straight. Picked up the phone then go what do I do now? Really no grab straps or such and I needed something to help pull me up without freaking out the back. I was working her at liberty and she was nekkid. Just then, like she knew what I needed, she lowered her neck and I was able to grab her mane and stand up. What a sweetie.
