White on White...

 Before I finally fell asleep last night (yep...5 hours), it was blowing like crazy outside so I turned on the light and this is what I saw around midnight.

This morning it looked like this.

 My long underwear was nowhere to be found.
 Gave the girls some extra hay and proceeded to clean stalls.
 After that I felt well enough to drive to the bank and picked up a supplement for the horses at Country Max.  Phoebe and Gucci went along for the ride.

You've heard of the princess and the pea?  I think Phoebe was trying to tell me something.

 Obviously, we are housebound for the most part.
 We actually had a little blue sky and sunshine this afternoon.
 Jenny and Karen stopped up with some cookie making ingredients for tomorrow morning, and brought us a big container of Italian Wedding Soup (which we will have tomorrow, as I had already made soup for dinner).

Out for chores at 5...and I did finally find my long underwear!




 It was actually very nice in the barn...
 Tonight we had a veggie/barley soup and the salad Judy brought us yesterday.  A perfect meal on a winter's night...since we are missing two parties!!!!
Hopefully I will continue to get sleep and can make a comeback.
Night all.

  8. Hope you are well by Christmas Eve. The snow looks pretty but it does make everything harder to do doesn't it? We only got a dusting.

    Have a wonderful Christmas with your family, friends and critters.
