I got a little lucky today. This morning I was watching the snow fall in my yard, piling up on the street, the wind blowing hard. I was dreading my drive to the barn. But I hate to make Nina go without her beet pulp and I really needed to put a winter blanket on her for tonight. Yesterday evening it was too warm for anything but a sheet but tonight it is supposed to go down to 4 degrees and with the wind blowing it is going to be COLD. So I really needed to make a barn run.
Surprise, when I left the house the roads were wet but not snow or ice.
I made it to the barn where Nina acted like a fruit loop while I changed blankets. She finally skidded into a fence and that sobered her up for a minute. Dumped her beet pulp in the feed bucket, gave her an unappreciated pat on the neck and left.
Right now I am in Starbucks making use of their WiFi to do some work. I need to get home before rush hour, relax for the evening and watch The Mentalist. Have I mentioned I hate winter?
Have a good evening.

ReplyDeleteGoofy Nina got her warm blanket and beet pulp even if she didn't appreciate it, I guess. ;)
I watch The Mentalist, too!
Stay warm and enjoy your show. I'll probably be watching Bones; maybe catch The Mentalist if I'm still awake. TV (even shows I really like) has a way of putting me right to sleep.
ReplyDeleteThe Mentalist was a re-run, bummer. But I still watch because Simon Baker is a dreamboat. I watch Bones, too. Love that show. And I, too, fall asleep even when watching something I really like. Just last week Barb had to tell me what happened at the end of The Mentalist. I didn't know who did it because I fell asleep at the end of the show.
ReplyDeleteThe weirdest part is then I go to bed and can't sleep!
