Turn on the Heat!

Brrrrrrrr... Yes I moved to here from the land of very cold winters, but I've gotten used to not so cold and so would someone turn the heat up please???

The temperatures are not getting out of the 20's and the winds are howling, literally, and I do not want to leave my stall it's just that cold.

Human put a warmer blanket on under my rain sheet and that helps a tiny bit, but in reality, it's just cold with all that strong wind howling down my back. My daughter Elle and I stand huddled up and today we even let Cinder into our stall too, but even with the three of us huddled up, it's cold.

The one good thing about this cold is Human lets us eat more hay then normal. She says we need the extra calories to help stay warm enough. So one good thing about the cold I guess, but please, someone turn up the heat!

"Oh the Weather Outside is....."

FREEZING! I mean FREEZING with very cold wind. Human wanted me, Mom and Cinder to go out in the field today but after about 15 mins I said "ENOUGH!" and have stayed in the barn ever since, it is too cold in that wind!

Mom is standing next to me in the stall and silly Cinder won't go in the other stall but no way am I moving over to make room for her with Mom and me, huh uh... Cinder has a room of her own, she can use it or stay outside in the cold wind, I am NOT sharing my napping space OR the extra warmth of my mom!

Human said it must be cold if we won't go out to graze and thankfully, she realized that it is important to provide extra room service in this kind of cold weather and had Male Human put the water tank heaters into place as well as started feeding us that nice green hay she bought last fall.

I don't know how long it's going to be this cold, but I hope Human keeps up the room service!

An Apple Sonata under the Moonlight

Human and I had our evening ride session. It was actually a nice night, although kind of cold now that she's shaved my hair off, she at least used an exercise rug on me to keep me warmer.

I was in a very good mood this evening because Human gave me an apple before we went to work. When she gives me an apple I know she's in a good mood, so that puts me in a good mood because I know we won't be working too hard.

As we rode along the fence line Human started doing that odd things humans and dogs do... they sing... I don't really understand WHY they sing but they seem to do it a lot so it must make them happy. I think it's kind of a sad sound myself but it seems to make Human happier when we're riding.

The good news is I got apples after we were done too. It was a good ride.
