31st January

The last day of January. It is very windy....I am taking care not to be blown away. It may dry the mud to a more sticky consistency though which would be nice! Even better for rolling in.........

30th January.

I am quite muddy. I think Simon is pretending he hasn't noticed......he hasn't said anything....probably not impressed. Oh well, it is still very wet...so I will get muddier today. Getting me clean enough to drive out could be a challenge by Saturday....I still have 3 days.....the mud could be inches thick on me by then....a job well done I think!

And Good Morning to readers in the Philippines. I don't know where the Philippines is but I am glad you are reading my Musings!

29th January

It is a bit gloomy but not raining, so we have gone out to play. I may be quite muddy by the time you are reading this. However it is nice to eat grass instead of hay even if it is a bit souplike under hoof!

The Vee Eee Tee came but didn't bring the teeth tools! So teeth have to wait until another day......I was not too disappointed.

28th January.

Not only did I get out with the cart on Saturday, I went again yesterday! Much better than the previous weekends.

Unfortunately the Vee Eee Tee is coming today. Pheonix is hiving needles jabbed in her and I am having my teeth filed. This is a bit undignified and not very pleasent! Still it only happens once a year.

26th January.

No snow, no rain, no big holes in the road....so I got a trot out in the cart! Excellent!

25th January.

It is still snowy and cold. We have gone out in it today though, with hay and rugs.

We are waiting to see if the thaw really does come tomorrow........either way I think I will be able to get down the drive and out for a trot this week end....hopefully.....

24th January.

We are bored with snow now! Still no more has fallen and there is more drip dripping off the roof today so it may be on it's way now. It would be nice to be able to get out for a trot with the cart at the weekend since I have not been out for the last 2 weekends and have new shoes now!

I thought I would help Simon tidy my stable this morning....but apparently picking the broom up in your mouth by the bristles and swinging it around isn't helping. It was funny though!
