Horses of the Day, Week, Month = Restocked!

A while back - I checked, it was just shy of two years ago (!!) - I had shared a post here titled, "A Morning In The Studio".  In that post, I had talked about how part of my daily routine is to reveal the horse of the day, on a calendar that sits just inside the door to my studio room. 

I also talked about the "horse of the day" in this post.  

For the last two years now, I have purchased that daily calendar, plus a weekly planner (mentioned as an inspiration in this post), and also a monthly wall calendar - all from the same company.

I have a bit of an annual routine, in a couple of different parts.  

In December, I buy the set of three for the next year.

Then, generally in the spring, but also throughout the year, I sort through the pictures from the previous year and file them away as part of my massive reference library.  Interestingly, I've found multiple pictures of the same horses - including one Paint horse stallion that the photographer seems to be quite obsessed with, ha!

Over the last week, I've already started sorting through the pictures from this year and some from last year.

I've also made my annual purchase of next years collection:  

That dark grey on the cover of the weekly planner already has my attention, as does the exuberant black horse on the box of the daily calendar.  A black horse with a star, reminds me of my boy, Bo.  

I don't usually make New Years Resolutions or even necessarily make big plans.  The last several years have been so turbulent that it makes me hesitant.  (I do laugh when I see posts and memes online from people asking if someone is going to lunge the next year before we all get on.  Haha!)

2026 *is* the Year of the Horse and that has my attention.  Despite my attempts to be guarded, I am hopeful it will be good and...  I *do* have some plans...
