+1 for our corporate IT. They've adjusted the dial-in VPN so it times out after 8 hours of connection. Perfect way to let you know the workday is done. 👍

This book didn't go where I initially thought it would, but was all the better for it and Cherie Priest knows how to press your buttons like few writers. HIGHLY recommended.

He looks all innocent, but when I was coming home with shopping, he and his neighbor were being very dramatic in the pasture. 🦄👀

Back when I had to street park, I wasn't the sort to throw an old folding chair in my parking spot when I was away. Instead, I went to great trouble to lift the shell of snow off my car in one piece so I could place it back in the spot as if the car was still there.
those who leave snow on their car roofs are without honor

PSA: This bird doesn't warn of werewolves, it's ID'ing werewolves in front of it.
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

It’s 31° and blowing, but the horses are watered. The Spicket is unfrozen. They were out grazing in the pasture and the moon is out which means that’s actually colder than if we had cloud cover.

Hopefully I’m into the night and I’m going to defrost

I’m Mini Force, from Bluebonnet Equine Humane Society. Kind of a sad year for me because my dad died and I had no where to go. And I’m not in the most adoptable shape right now. So I’m asking Santa to help me with what I need so I can find my forever home.

Hitch is on order and will be installed on Monday.
