[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1741908, member: 8202"] Those drunk weather forecasters have downgraded our snow forecast again. First it was a foot, then they said 16 inches, then they said 3 inches, then they said 10 inches, and this morning it's back to 3.5 inches. Either way, little Miss Molly will have to stay in at least Tuesday and Wednesday because there's going to be rain mixed with some of that snow, and high winds again, plus lows in the teens and highs below freezing. She just doesn't have the coat for that, being a Southern Belle and all... ;) But she's happy enough in her barn, I guess. She's not bouncing off the walls when I have to keep her in, anyway. Last night, I finally managed to get my fingernails under her jaw to scratch "the best" itchy spot and I thought she was going to melt. Her nose dropped to the floor and she exhaled a long, contented groan of pleasure. Maybe now she'll get it. That's a GOOD spot fer scritchin'! My other girls would come up to me and lift their chins way up in the air to tell me they needed a good scritch in that spot (and all the way up and down the front of the neck while I was at it!), but up until last night, Molly didn't know how good it could be. She always shied away when I reached for that spot. I'm hoping she figures out that lifting her chin will get the same results. I was bent clear over last night to reach her with her nose on the floor, and it was a bit painful for me, but worth it to show her the "sweet spot." She's such a little sweetheart. She's starting to put some good weight on now, too, I've noticed. She's not quite as bony feeling as she was when she first got here. I know it will take a while for her to fill out, but at least she's making some progress. She's eating hay like a champ now, and her "warm cereal" is now a GOOD thing in her opinion. :) [/QUOTE]
