Wintery Wash Out

I'm wiped out. Christmas was a blizzard-ey wash-out and my horse clients all canceled. As much as I love caring for people's house pets, it the horses that actually make me money, so it really bummed me out when the last of my horse clients said they were staying home. However, my lack of manure shoveling jobs turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

I haven't been home for a Christmas in two years and I forgot how much I love the Christmas eve festivities followed by sleeping in on Christmas and opening presents in my pajamas. This year I tried hard to enjoy time with my family, but it was overtaken by short nights spent with unruly golden retrievers and mornings, mid-days and evenings monopolized by driving around the city checking on animals. Tonight is the first night in 6 days that I am sitting with my feet up and I am seconds away from pouring my first glass of wine.

Tomorrow is my birthday and I can't wait. I don't really know why. I have no big plans other than dinner with my family (one of my most favorite activities of all time). My 27th year of life is bound to be my most productive one yet!

P.S. I have ceased to put pictures up for the time being as my camera landed in my bloody mary the other day and it doesn't work any more. Sorry!
