And The New Year Begins....

It's supposed to be getting lighter earlier in the morning, but not today.  It was so dark at 7:30.

The temperature was near 50 so I took off Rebel's medium blanket and put on a sheet.  He was a muddy mess and needed to be groomed.

After chores I made a pot of spaghetti sauce and invited Jenny and crew to dinner.  Ended up making a banana cream pie for dessert.

Topped it with some candied walnuts.

The rest of the afternoon was a blank as I spent part of it talking to friends on the phone and did not get much accomplished.

PM Chore duty.  All the horses were filthy!

It was very dark when I got back to the house at 5:05.

Jen, Finn and Coop arrived at 5:45 and we chowed.

We sat by the fire after dinner 

and Coop was so comfortable he took a short nap.

All of us were tired so it was an early evening.

Night all.
