Riding my horse? HAHAHAHA. You say that like it’s been warm enough to be outside here. Not for this displaced Southerner. (Or as they call me at work… ‘The Tourist’) The average temperature here for January so far has been 16 degrees. Too cold for me!
So instead I got a different way to get around. AKA my new car came!
And promptly showed up (from Texas) in the middle of 5″ of snow. Nothing like having the interior of your driver door covered in snow the day you get it. Also, OMG I totally get why people have all weather floor mats now. And all wheel drive. And snow brushes! Boot trays!
So instead of driving to the barn, I’ve been focusing on playing with all. the. buttons. and just getting to work in one piece. One thawed piece. Just in time for work to be totally over the top and in need of multiple 11 hour days. Ugh.
I did manage to have a lesson (sob) two weekends ago that went really well. Mainly working on bending and moving off my leg, but also just getting my head back in the game. Which, you know, I’ll have to do all over again when I finally get to ride again.

Warmer weather has to be coming for you sometime, right??? stay thawed and safe! 🙂
Congrats on the new car! It’s pretty pretty
Ugh I hear ya on winter man, will it ever end?? Love that last pic tho!
After growing up in Chicago and then living in NC the last 12 years, I can say the weather is the main reason we didn’t move back after my husband got out of the military. NO THANK YOU!
I guess if work has to decide to be stupid, at least it’s doing it when it’s too cold for ponies anyway? Hopefully this misery ends soon. I hate winter.
New car looks sparkly!
All weather mats are the best. Hope that car motors you everywhere you need to be in the snow!
Ohhhhh shiny new car!
OMG I love my all-weather mats! Best Christmas present ever (after the horse, LOL)
