In my youth,
adults were always telling me to
‘hold my horses’,
but never to ride my horses,
or, to feed my horses,
or, to lock up my horses at night,
and, pretty soon,
I had no more horses

That sounds like something one would say right before socking you in the arm.

You’re welcome! Really, really. (“I love you, really, really” is how my husband has signed almost every card he’s ever given me since before we were even married 43 years ago. The one time he didn’t add the “reallys” I thought maybe he wanted a divorce.)

My dad always said that too. What a random phrase.

I typed in the word, horse, into my site search and was surprised to see how many came up. Apparently it is a theme of mine of which I was not aware. That said, i grew up at the end of the tv cowboy era, so I guess there were still a lot of ‘horse’ phrases going around. Somewhere in one of my notebooks I know I wrote a few variations of the phrase, ‘good ole horse sense’, so it appears there are more to come!

I havent heard that one in a while. My old man used to pull out “Old horse” or “Don’t spare the horses”

It hadn’t occurred to me at the time, but yeh, I guess it may be a lost phrase.

I spent a lot of time in the country so horses played a big part in all sorts of dialogue. Plus “horse” cookies were the first kind I ever stepped on. I’ve avoided most others, peanut butter, chocolate chip etc in my lifetime.

It’s a shame that this reply thread didn’t continue until this day. I really wanted to write “The horse is dead: Dismount”
