What a dilemma.

She took her horse for better pastures.

Better pastures may be the best option ;-)
Good one.

Sometimes it's the small things that break up a relationship. But back-seat driver? She's better off without him!

Poor pegasus never would have agreed to take the bridle if he'd known Bellerophon was married.

Nothing worse then a backseat driver. I wonder if she has used the ejection seat that comes with that model!
Good!

Ah, yes! I think better pastures are definitely in order! Great one for the day! Enjoy your week!

Oooh, she's out man-hunting, huh? But, yeah, backseat driving is extremely annoying! Very clever, Jim!

Who needs that kind of attention when you drive. LOL. Great one.

Elin should wax up the back of the saddle, and practice her 'jump starts' ROFL

Good for her!
