I hope the ponies have found shelter.<br /><br />In New Zealand we've had very warm, muggy weather - over 30 degrees, rather than our usual 22! Actually the heat is ok, it's the humidity I can't cope with. I feel like a butterball, and my temper becomes distinctly unreliable! Oh well, if it's not one extreme, it's the other! <br /><br />Happy New Year to you allVirginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06864657381173674455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109597837911345568.post-50743057723367928482012-12-30T23:31:30.178+00:002012-12-30T23:31:30.178+00:00I lose track of the days too.
