Whoa! 31 Degrees today!

We all needed a break....and now snow is on the way.

Not quite as windy.

Little Wonder was game for going with me to do chores.

When we got back to the house I made more changes to the upstairs.  Turned the new king sized bed into twins now and can adjust it as needed.

At 11 I went down to Oak Orchard to pick out some new reading glasses. Somehow I scratched the heck out of one of the lenses in my old ones.  While I was gone we had 3 face cords of wood delivered.  That will keep Gary very busy in the stacking department.  Home a little after noon, did more laundry and took it easy.  Evening chores at 5:15.  It was nice and quiet....not dark yet.

Got the boys tucked in and had already started on dinner.

Baked chicken with onions, carrots and a yummy sauce....

with some Mac salad on greens.

I just can't seem to get going with the picture taking.  Hibernation has taken over.

Night all.

Sunshine and it Felt like -11

It has not been this cold for quite awhile and it's going to get worse.

Can't remember a time when we have had so many strong, windy days in a row.  

Started off feeling like -4.

Sure was glad I found my gator to cover my face.

I did a lot of laundry when I got back in the house and changed around some bedding.  Had a short time to relax with Little Wonder before going to my cardiologist for a check up.

Rebel and Buddy toughed it out all day long and I put them in a little early.

Too cold for LW this morning, but he wanted to go out with me tonight.  He must have figured out that it's only for 10 minutes.

Leftover sloppy Joes for dinner.

Night all.

Moving Into The Deep Freeze

Felt like 6 degrees when I got out to the barn this morning.  Little Wonder was smart and stayed in the house.

Of course we had a lot of wind.

After chores I made a quick trip to Wegmans.  By then, the farrier moved my time up from 3 to 1:30 and at 1 we had an outrageous squall and ended up cancelling.

This is what it looked like when the squall started.

I tried to add music to part of this and the quality was not the greatest (that's because I tried to take a video of it off my FB post, which was nice and clear).

I put on my coat and boots to go out to the barn and by then....

Buddy and Rebel were covered with snow.  Did they go in the indoor or under the shed roof?

I put them in their suites with some hay and warm water so they could thaw out.

I don't even dare to tell you how late Gary and I were up watching a Netflix series last night.  That meant I was semi comatose by this afternoon.

Out at 5 to reset the stalls.  The boys were ready to go back in.  By then it felt like -2.

Sloppy Joes for dinner.

Night all.
