It is April, right?

I think someone must be playing a joke on me. I woke up to this:



Snow 4-14 Snow2 4-14




It’s snowing so hard, you can’t see the freeway at the end of out driveway. We’re expected to get up to 3-5 inches of snow before it’s done.



*sigh*



Anyone else miss the sun?

Snow Dog…

The weather is finally starting to warm up. Yesterday, we cracked 30 degrees! The whole week is supposed to be nice. I can’t wait!!



Since it was so nice,I took the dog for a walk. We spent about an hour outside. What did we do? Me? Enjoyed the sun. The dog? He enjoyed the snow. Or, more precisely, what’sbeneath the snow. I guess we don’t have to worry about him getting lost. We just have to follow his trail. lol



I wonder what the planes flying overhead think about the patterns in our yard.



Snow Dog
