Chores.Laundry.Massage.Chores.

The chill is still on, and by tonight the wind made it feel like 23 degrees.






By noon I had a lot done in the house.  Then I went to my massage appointment (missed it last month) and now that I've moved around a bit, feel pretty good.


Leftovers for dinner.  I made one of those 1940s jello salads with carrots, celery and walnuts....
and we worked on last nights leftovers.  Tasted even better tonight.

Not too long ago, the boys were getting tucked in at 4:30.  Then 5.....6.....and now 7:15.  They are always in the front paddock waiting for their dinner.



Sidney was in the barn all day.  He will probably stay inside for the rest of the night.








I love coming in to a fire.
Night all.

I Must Be On Vacation

Certainly off duty in the picture taking department.  It was sunny and brisk this morning...felt energetic.  Pooped out as the day went on and I think I'm getting a cold.  Sneezing and a very runny nose.  Did manage to go to two grocery stores and made a good dinner.  Also watched some basketball.  Now all I want is to get out by the fire.  Here's what I've got....







I marinated and baked a chicken breast that I par boiled (then made some soup), sautéed onions and mushrooms....
made a creamy sauce, added a little Romano cheese and squeezed on some lemon after I tossed everything together.  Tasted great and I have plenty of leftovers.
The salad was marinated asparagus, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, black olives and feta cheese.  A great combination.

Chores at 7:15.  Very dull out tonight.


The boys sure look depressed in these photos!
Night all.

Hey Val! The Snow Arrived!

The wind was back in full force all day long.

Just when we were ready to go to a memorial service at 1:30, the weather got crazy so the boys went back into their stalls.
Our good friend, Alvin A.,  passed away March 9th at the age of 97 and today his life was celebrated.  Amy M., from Hurd Orchards (where Alvin's daughter Christine works) created this beautiful arrangement.


When it was over, we went to the Vet's Club and had a chance to catch up with many people we have not seen in a long time.  By the time we got home, the snow was gone but with the wind it felt like 11 degrees.  Chores at 7.


While waiting for me to reset the stalls, the boys had a very zoomie moment.
It was another roll in the mud day, especially for Rebel.




Little Wonder needed to wear his black coat.
I need a nap.  So many basketball games are on I can't keep up....and I just want to get the final scores.
Night all.
