January 24, 2008 I got an e-mail from Buddy! It sounds like he's doing great:"Hey Pippi, I finally stole my human's computer to write a quick message. I have been reading about the snow and cold, but I haven't had any snow! I like it down here. My human seems to think that working is good for me, but I would like to disagree. I am perfectly happy to stay here in my stall and eat all day. I have made a couple new friends named Sunset and Rosie, but they don't compare to you guys up there! I miss you all and hope you stay warm! Love, Buddy" |

I
had such a nice day yesterday. The weather was beautiful and I actually
felt like being with my human. She kept saying that I was a perfect
horse — made me feel so proud! Although I may have detected a somewhat
sarcastic tone, I decided to ignore that and take her at her word. At
least I was nice and clean for her. Not like Story was. Yep, she heard her human's car coming up the driveway so she decided to have a quick mud bath. And boy she did she do a good job of rolling! Mud was everywhere and still wet, so her human had a heck of a time cleaning her up. It was so funny!
Then
we had a trail ride outside and I was very brave. I wanted to go all
the way down the driveway to the bridge, but Story wasn't up for it. I
was actually the leader, can you believe that? And I saw something new — I believe they were called little boys. They were very small and smelled very interesting. Both Story and I tried to take a taste. I would think something that small would be tender and juicy, but our humans didn't let us have even a nibble. They were called Kevin and Logan and they sat up on our backs. Kevin even went for a ride with me. I think my human was nervous that I'd misbehave, but I was very good. Would you except anything less from a "perfect" horse? |

Happy New Year! Do you have a New Year's Resolution? I do. I, Pippi Longsox, resolve to be nice to the other horses and pleasant to be around. Since I'm such a sweetie, this should be a piece of cake! |
