Because life with horses is never orderly.
Desperation?
Winter seems to bring out all sorts of things in people…some are excited by the clean, freshness that seems to come with newly fallen snow. These people are joyous at what they perceive to be new beginnings and boundless possibilities. I am not those people. Winter brings out nothing but acute desperation, irritability, and the continual threat to move back to Florida. 😀
Sissy stuff there.
Pshh! Those are WARM! Out here we have FROZEN CYCLONES. You’re Welcome. Love, Winter.
Though one most may not appreciate you asking.
Ah, winter and the holidays: a time of wonderfully frozen tundra complete with copious amounts of food and significantly less motivation to do much other than eat it. 😉 It’s a time of wonderment: Is your horse just fluffy from being frozen or fat from not getting worked? Did those breeches feel snug because you layered or because you’ve decided pumpkin pie is a legitimate food group? So.many.questions.
…and it was as hateful as I remember it.
Have I mentioned how much I hate snow? I hate watching my horses nearly break their fetlocks even more. Don’t mind me, I’ll be over there doing some sort of anti snow dance and praying for a winter drought. 😉
That shouldn’t be plural…
Well, I gave it a shot. At least there’s only another 4ish months of this sacrilege. 😉
Just one of the many insane things we do as equestrians.
It’s that fun time of year again…the one where we get to be covered in hair AND eventually freeze in the ensuing arctic tundra. Barf. I’m already ready for June. 😉
…makes me die a little inside.
Really, there’s not much I need to add here. Winter is Death and Fall is his evil little enabler. 😉
…in order to survive winter riding and to avoid getting launched into the stratosphere by your youngster this winter. The take home from this is that winter is bogus and those that the first person to complain that it’s hot this summer is getting smacked. 😉
Because who doesn’t love frozen mud?
As if the cold and snow weren’t awful enough. Not that I am complaining about the warmer days mind you, just noting that I could do without the resulting mudslides. 😉
Worthless. Totally worthless.
This is the time of year when you might as well just live out of your car since there’s no way you could actually, intelligently dress for the day. 😉
