Yikes. It's been awhile, eh?
I have just found that the Jan-Mar time frame is just rough. Rough for writing, photography, new ideas, etc. I can't get motivated. The grey and the rain and the lack of sunshine just makes you want to hibernate. When you finally get a sunny day you spend that energy on on personal slacking like housecleaning, etc.
We're starting to finally see some grass. Brown grass, but hey.... a sign a Spring.
We still get the occasional snow storm, but usually fades away the next day.
It's been a tough month pet wise. I lost my one-eyed River kitty last month. She had bladder cancer and there just wasn't much we could do. Kitty Pudge went through a rough spot I didn't think she was going to make it through.
She had to have a cancerous kidney removed and there's more spread. I thought she was a goner and it was a really rough time, but she was put on a new medication and she just blossomed. She's almost back to normal except she needs to put some weight on.
I know we're living on borrowed time, but I'll take it.
A couple of weeks ago I had to put down one my horses. Another rough morning. He was in his 30's and we knew it would be coming soon, but not exactly like it did. I woke one morning to him down on the ground and couldn't get up.
I couldn't move him of course. Some friends came to help but it was no use. He wasn't moving and it was just his time. It wasn't fun :(
I can't say a whole lot else has happened. Waiting for the snow to melt and see all my flowers grow. I put MANY MANY bulbs out last Fall, so I'm kinda excited.
I got a new camera about a week ago but haven't even used it yet. Heh...what does that say? I've got Riley for the next couple of days, he may be my test subject.

So sorry to hear about your kids, especially the horse. :-(
I definitely agree about the winter months, even though it was nicer here than you had it. A full week of sunshine would do wonders for me, I think.
