I saw a meme on Facebook this weekend stating something about how spring forward is like Christmas for equestrians. This spring forward we were just coming out of a snow storm with low temperatures and BOOM, we were hit with sunny temperatures in the 50s and 60s.
I had the say off with no plans and spent it mending fences, milling around, playing with the ponies and the dogs and enjoying the weather. I saw for a while and watched the snow in the barnyard practically turning to mud before my eyes.
Monday morning hit and I had a spring forward hang over. My head was tight, my eyes were tired and getting out of bed was like trying to wake from a coma. We still had snow on the ground, but that was sure to melt quickly looking at a week of warm weather and some rain. And to remind me of my Sunday, my arms were a little pink and I felt like I absorbed some vitamin D.

/ March 10, 2015I was so thrilled with the warmer weather. The day light longer into the evening is great, too, but I was watching Once Upon a Time anyway, !!!
I did, however, take full advantage of the insta-warmth and sun, and not only went out for a photo shoot, but also worked all 3 horses to the toboggan! Yay!!
