Its snowing

Not unusual,  I remember loading horses in a light snow to head to memorial weekend rides in SD and having nice weather to ride in, although the horses always thought I was nuts loading them up to go ride when it was snowing.

Tanza and Lady got bute a couple hours after their vaccinations and no reactions.  So Tanza should be good to go ride.  Because of the forecast, my vaccination reaction worries and general OMG I'm so behind feelings I decided I will ride on Sunday.  So current plan is to haul to Casper or hopefully Thermopolis on Fridaay and overnight at a fairgrounds and then a short drive to ride site Saturday morning.   Donate the unicorn poster and half chaps as ride awards.

Work is continuing to be a madhouse.  It should not be so, but the group manager wants to maintain direct handling of low level tasks and then doesn't have enough hours in the day to keep track of and communicate the big tasks that need to be done to the team.  Plus he, or he and/or  the program manager keep refusing to hire another software engineer and admin support person so both the ops group and the admins are stressed having to be 100% all the time and still feeling like we are falling behind.   I am going to have to ding all the management for this when input for *their* APRs is sought by the higher ups.    Sick and tired of their attitude of pinching pennies on things that are needed and then being lavish on extras.
