Grump, grump, our ears are wet, our coats are wet and we're fed up! Mules are not made for wet weather, it drips down into our ears and is cold and chilly.... grump, grump.
Dragon is equally grumpy... her royal Dragon highness does not like the wet look.
It seems that Diesel has the right idea hiding in her cat palace all toasty and dry. Maybe it's time for us to come in too? Don't you think FH?
Now then FH how about some Christmas cheer? Something to take our minds off feeling so damp around the edges.... Surely you know the way to a mule's heart is through his tummy?
That's more like it! My new favourite! A lovely Christmassy Satsuma! Yummy! All the peel and insides all at once, what do you mean this is rather odd? Why waste time peeling when you can eat it all? Satsuma peel is a tasty delicacy honest!
If you don't believe me, ask Dragon. Hey Dragon, do you like satsumas?
Yep! I think Dragon likes satsumas :-) Hang on a minute... she's not allowed two!
Although it is kinda worth it to see the funny face she makes!
And don't worry friends we cheered Roller up by giving him his very own wet day treat. He is not a fan of the citrus stuff so he is contentedly munching on his apple. It has to be said even Roller Polar is not looking at his best in this wet weather, it plays havoc with his fluff!
We're asking Santa for a dry Christmas this year, just a day of dry weather would be nice, a white Christmas is a little too much to ask but maybe just a glimpse of sunshine?
Hope you're all managing to stay warm, dry and relaxed at this busy time of year, sending you muleteer snuffles to help you on your way :-) xxx

| Read my ears, I am not happy! |
The rain means that all the strawy bits are sticking to my mud pack.... grump, grump!
There is mud soup in the paddocks and its impossible to see the view for clouds.... aren't we supposed to get the white stuff at this time of year?

ReplyDeleteChin up ~ things will dry out .soon hopefully
Warm Nuzzles and cheerful Nickers,
From Honey Bee and Think
Ah your warming nuzzles and nickers have certainly cheered the boys up! It is so wet and windy here..... maybe soon we will get snow.
DeleteSending you heartfelt neighs, neighbrays and snuffles to our special girls xxx
Shy is not a fan of citrus either. Our weather is the same. . .rainy, foggy, overall yuck. Hope you guys dry out soon! Wet ponies and mules are no fun to hug!
ReplyDeleteHope you guys get better weather too, there is no dignity in soggy ponies!
DeleteEven if your wet and grumpy you all look wonderful to GH.Missed you all but be seeing you soon.x
ReplyDeleteWe'll be seeing you soon GH, maybe Santa will bring you for a visit?? xxx
DeleteIt is not nice weather at all. We could all do with some frosty sunshine.
ReplyDeleteGlad that you enjoyed your treats.
I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas
With extra Christmas cuddles from Judy in Cambridge
Hello Judy, Hope you're staying nice and dry and warm, the weather is simply disgraceful isn't it? We are all tucked up in the dry away from the rain.... best of all FH is bringing us regular treats so its not all terrible ;-)
DeleteMerry Christmas from your Muleteer friends xxx
Oh, my dear!. Hope you all get dry soon --perhaps a fancy hairdrier styling? My sweet friends, I am sending you 60cm of snow fall --all yours to enjoy!. We have been buried in snow last week in -20C. All warm and soggy now.
ReplyDeleteKeep well in this un-mulish weather, with ears dry and happy, mis amigos!. Wishing you a white and loving Xmas to you and to all our donkey friends at the sanctuary.
Con amor,
Carmen
Our Dearest Carmen, we are a little wet and bedraggled.... the weather is even worse today but we are all tucked up in our little barn with hay and deep straw beds and the occasional treat ;-) We hope you are staying safe in all that snow - it sounds chilly!
DeleteWe will pass on many a Carmen hug and ear rub to our donkey friends and accept ours with great glee to cheer us up! With lots of snuffles, neighbrays and love to you at Christmas - Your Muleteer Friends xxx
Awwww....bless your beautiful mule hearts! The weather here in Montreal has brought us much snow...and we are to get freezing rain, so the conditions are slippery.
ReplyDeleteBrrrr it sounds cold in Montreal! Take care in that nasty weather xx
DeleteI can say that my mules and donkeys don't love the wet stuff either. The past two days have been misty icy rain and cold breezes.
ReplyDeleteOh wet, wet, wet!
I wish Mother Nature would give you a nice break, that paddock looks very very sloppy!
We knew you would understand Val! Us long ears do not like the rain! Part of our paddock is just mud soup, thankfully we are all tucked up in to our barns as the weather is even worse today with gales and rain that never stops, maybe we might get sunshine one day! Sending you Christmas wishes!
DeleteI sure wish we could send you some sunshine, but we can't hardly remember what it even looks like. I am glad you all got some consolation prizes at least.
ReplyDeleteYour weather has been looking grim too! Us long don't do this winter thing well, ah well at least the solstice has been been xx
DeleteOh my goodness you do all look soggy and sorry for yourselves. I've not tried satsumas. Must get human to bring me one to see if I like it.
ReplyDeleteYou must try satsumas, they are lovely, even the peel! It seems at the moment none of our short eared friends like them...might be a mule thing.... you could be the first though!
DeleteOh bless you all. Hope you dry soon, and enjoy your satsumas and apples.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ann! Nice to see you back here again, we always like to hear from you :-) We are downing the satsumas and apples like they're going out of fashion - needs must ;-)
DeleteOh, gosh, nothing worse than a soupy paddock! I hope you get to come inside and get dry. Let's hope for drying for the middle of the week, too! And oranges!! My gosh!
ReplyDeleteNope soupy paddocks are not good, the perils of living on a hillside, the top is dry the bottom is soup - uck! Sending you Christmas wishes :-) xx
