| " Happy New Year " |
I’d
like to thank everyone for their kind and thoughtful comments on our recent
loss of Donnie. We appreciated that you
shared your thoughts with us. The barn
seems so sad and empty without Donnie there to greet us in the morning and his kind presence
every day is missed by all. This has
been a year of loss at our farm, losing both Mellon and Donnie,
who were an integral part of the herd and our lives. They left us with wonderful memories of their time spent with us. Along with the sadness there have also been many happy times spent on the farm to be thankful for this past year.
I'm not one for making New Year's resolutions or goals for the coming year. The one thing I look forward to is spending more time getting to know Rosie and having some nice rides with her.
That
said I’d like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best in 2018! May you have good health and good rides
throughout the year. And most of all lots of fun shared with family and friends,
both human and animal.

Happy New Year. Here's to 2018.
ReplyDeleteWishing you and Carmen great rides in 2018!
DeleteLet's hope that 2018 brings much health and happiness to you and your critters. Losing two members of your herd leaves a hole in your heart. Stay warm! This polar plunge is no picnic!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lori. It was below 0 last night and 4 this morning. I think that’s enough cold for this month!
DeleteThank you Arlyne. I wish for you the exact same thing. May there be less loss in the coming year as well. Love your quote for the day...I'll take that to heart!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lori. I've always liked that quote too.
DeleteHappy New Year wishes for happiness, health ~ and many soft knickers!!
ReplyDeleteThanks aurora, wishing the same for you...in your new place!
DeleteI'm officially declaring 2018 the year of the unicorn. Sparkles and rainbows for everyone! 🦄 🦄 🦄
ReplyDeleteThanks CFS! I like your thinking, unicorns and rainbows it is!
DeleteHere's to a Happy New Year GHM; looking forward to Rosie stories!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mrs.Shoes! I hope there are lots of Rosie stories coming!
DeleteHappy New Year! It has been quite a year at your place and mine, too. I’ve always said I wouldn’t want to see through a crystal ball because it would be too much to experience all at once. One day at a time. I hope when you look back at 2018 there will be many good memories and great rides with your new girl.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! I'm hoping for lots of good stuff in 2018 and wishing you the same.
DeleteHappy New Year to you and your family too, GHM. 2017 certainly was quite the life-shaking year! Wishing you lots of wonderful, happy times for 2018. I, too, will be looking forward to more Rosie stories. Take care in all that bitterly cold weather you're having.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joy! I hope there will be lots of good stories to come. This weather should break soon, it is bitterly cold and miserable here right now.
DeleteHappy New Year to you and yours :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Cathryn, same to you!
DeleteI'm so sorry about Donnie. I hope the new year has a lot less loss in it. Happy New Year!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks,Happy New Year!
DeleteCatching up on blogs and realized I missed your Happy New Year post. Hope 2018 is being great so far (it isn’t here, but that’s okay, there’s still time) and that you’re settling in with Rosie. Looking forward to more photos of her and the herd and to hearing about some good rides!
ReplyDeleteHi billie. Happy New Year to you and your gang. Rosie is settling in and doing well. Not much going on here due to bad weather. I think the herd is still missing their old friend Donnie so they are a bit quiet.
