Barn chores

For the past week I have had the luxury of seeing Sinwaan every day, twice a day. The prospect of this was very exciting to me. I should have known better. Barns are WORK :) - not to mention even more so in the winter. I am there from about 6:30-8 am and again about 7 pm for feeding. I also work full time so this means I have barely been home. And because there is so much to do out there I hardly see Sinwaan at all. Sure, one day I was able to pick the ice balls out of his feet and put on his blanket. I am sure he appreciated that. But not much more in the way of attention, grooming, etc.

Now that I am about ready to try riding again, however, it is much too cold - and the snow! 12 1/2" yesterday! More to come! Low tonight of 0 to -17. Yeah, riding is pretty much out right now.
