Ridiculous...

Holy crap, this is the third time that it has snowed in the last 6 weeks! What is central/north Alabama coming to? If I wanted all this mess, I would still live up north. Guess that means I need to pack up and head further south...

Ah well. At least it's pretty for half a minute. I dread to think of what the roads are going to be like in the morning when I trek out to feed the horses...

Rain, rain go away...

I am so tired of the rain. It keeps raining... and raining... and raining some more. The one weekend that I go out of town for a friend's birthday party, the sun comes out and it's marginally less wet (but probably still was too wet on the ground for any kind of really serious, heavy work). When will this crap ever end??? I'm so ready to be back in the saddle.

Ivan's grandparents :)

My friend, Danielle, was kind enough to share photos of Ivan's grandparents with me today :) I thought I'd post them here along with his pedigree for posterity.

Classy Lady: Bring on show season!

I was going through photos, and came across a few nice ones of my girl :) We're looking forward to show season! Hopefully this season will show an improvement since last season!

I so need one of these, in exactly this color, once Alabama football season starts! ROLL TIDE!!!

The Cat Doesn't Know He's A Cat

This photo is blurred and creepy because Boris moved and the cat's eyes were glowing, but you get the idea. This cat ADORES Boris. He tries to sleep on him constantly. I dont know if Ptolemy is just cold or if he's confused as to what species he is. Either way, there it is...
