Happy New Year!

Stopping in to say Happy New Year! Just got back from sunny Southern California...in time for a snowstorm to sweep through our city last night....and a lovely 4 hour commute home (and I am surprised I didn't hurt anyone). Christmas in California was one of the best and of course being with family made it so special!

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday but if any of you are like me I am SO glad 2010 is coming upon us. I have a strange feeling 2010 has a lot of goodies planned for all of us!

Here's a sneak peak at my treat for 2010. :) This is Cimara....if all goes as planned, as of next month I will be leasing this lovely girl! We've already started to get to know one another. :) She's a 12 year old Missouri Fox Trotter. Wait, my leg looks fat. Waiiiit a minute. I lost weight. Whaaaaa!

HAPPY, HAPPY NEW YEAR. Look up at the sky....we are in for a Blue Moon and a Lunar Eclipse tomorrow evening. No wonder 2010 will already be special. :)

Happy, happy New Year!!! May all that is good happen this year for you.
I knew that the one person who would know about the blue moon this month would be you...
Have a great evening ( a four hour commute sounds horrendous by the way!) and stay safe and warm!

Oh fun! I would love to have more time with horses. Considering I have...none? =) I dreamed as a kid of owning a horse. I came up with plans monthly of how I could keep it in my suburban backyard. I would paruse the classifieds and show them to my parents, just KNOWING I could make it work. I was fully convinced that we could pull it off! Needless to say, I never did get one to pasture in my small lawn, but I did have fun dreaming!
Happy New Year!

HI Michelle, Happy New Year! I believe this is going to be one, spectacular year. Full of promise and happiness. Cimara is beautiful, and so are you. I am so glad you have gotten your own horse. I think you are going to love it. Billy Holiday, don't you just love her singing? Love and hugs, Kathleen

We're due for another snowstorm too. January is picking up where December left off weatherwise.

Glad you are enjoying horseback riding and I'm sure you will be even more involved in 2010.

Happy New Year to you and your furbabies!
