I awoke yesterday morning to a fresh, unexpected snowfall.
The sight of it filled me with such happiness. The world shimmered and my soul felt light. I have had a shift in perspective over the past several days.
I set an intention to welcome as much positive energy into my life as I can and then give it back to the universe whenever possible.
Yesterday's snow, as it covered the mud of the previous week reminded me that a shift in mindset can be received just as easily as the earth receives the snow. It's a matter of being open and receptive and willing to look at life from different perspectives.
Just the addition of a half inch of glistening, crystalized flakes made the world fresh and clean. And though the snow will melt and leave the ground muddy once more - its beauty was worth the inconvenience. And the water absorbed by our land is so very important to life.
The sunrise was spectacular...
bathing the herd in a warm glow
as they enjoyed their breakfast in the front pasture.
The birds were not as happy with the snow as I was.
As we drove out to the barn for morning chores,
I had my usual passenger on my lap. Bobby rides to the barn both mornings and evenings... an adventure.
Just to share a little carbohydrate porn with you.... yesterday's bread baking... delicious!

Love how Mary Ann likes to get her own “special” drink!
I love your perspective on the snow. I am focusing this year on being more intentional each day with my gratitude. And opening the doors that I know await us.
Question about the donkeys-I notice their ears are often back against their heads. With horses, at least, that usually means they are angry or upset. Is it the same with the donkeys?
Beautiful photos. Enjoy your day off!
So glad Pete is up and about and back to his usual routine with you!
The snow ... 😞 We've been up in the 50s and almost 60° forecast for today!
See you on Thursday!
Also, a huge Happy New Year to everyone! Especially my much loved Uncle "THE BEARDED ONE"
Could we talk you into a post of sharing your bread recipes...or maybe one a week? I'll search older posts, I know I've found one of your recipes I love, but these look like a winter activity I need to do!
