We are currently revving up for the Holiday Season. It’s 17 degrees at our home in Colorado, and 71 degrees at our Texas abode. Most of our Christmas cash has been eaten up (literally) by the damage mice have done to our cars. I know what you are thinking we should get just get a cat! Well, let me tell you these mice are like the mice on Star Trek. They go “where no mouse has gone before”. (Tom’s car had a nest in the engine). We’ll just call that mouse Scotty! And the rest of our Christmas cash well…let’s just say it has been donated to vet bills. I’m not joking. This Christmas, I am asking Santa for Vetericyn in my stocking. And our wonderful friends at Kensington were generous enough to give my 3 horses Bug Eye fly masks for their stockings, complete with a pen to draw on their faces. I think I’ll make Peterbilt look like Antonio Banderas. I wonder, will Larkin even notice? Actually, they say that if you draw face markings on the fly masks other horses won’t rip them off. (This gives a new meaning to the phrase, “I’m going to rip your face off”. LOL! Truly, do you think that will work? I’m going to try the Antonio thing! Angelo, Tom’s proud steed, tried to give himself a third nostril by gouging a huge hole in his nose. I wonder should I draw that on his face mask? Peterbilt, my special pony, is taking 6 weeks off for the Holidays after doing in both his front suspensory ligaments. (Well, at least no art work is needed on his wraps). Happy Holidays to all our friends, Tally Ho, Carrie
