As an adult ammy who usually hits the barn in the late afternoon after shutting down my laptop, I already feel like we’re over one of biggest hurdles of the winter. We’ve passed the Winter Solstice as well as the chaotic holiday season and I can now actually notice, just a little bit, that the days are getting a smidgen longer again. I don’t know about you, but that extra sliver of daylight sometimes makes a world of difference to me when I’m trying to pry myself out of my warm office chair and throw myself into a cold saddle. Once I’m in the saddle I’m always glad I’m there regardless, but goodness, that extra Vitamin D sure makes the whole process a lot easier.
