Winter storm kept me home this weekend. Lots of snow and my little car do not a happy road trip make, so we postponed the whole thing. It was -18C PLUS wind chill, yuck. I had to dig out my snow pants and toques and big mitts and scarves. I am actually pretty well supplied…lol. Son shoveled the driveway, I dug out all the planters and put everything away. It was a graphic lesson in the perils of procrastination. And those poor, poor tulips bulbs. Maybe I will just give them to the squirrels.
Tonight I take back the dog walking chore, even though the animal has bonded to my son. I think it’s because they have the same personality but he (Son) finds that vaguely mean, even while he admits there might be a kernel of truth. Anyway, when dog is awake he is no more than 10 inches away from Son, no matter what. If there’s a door between them dog whines until they are reunited. I am finding it very funny.
Son also helped me put up a curtain rod, move furniture around and clean out a closet. Loverboy stayed at the mine for the weekend due to the weather, so I just puttered around. I enjoyed it a lot.

It is amusing about the dog and your son…I can sort of picture it. Sure is cold where you are! Are you anywhere near Thompson, Manitoba? Just a thought, a bit of synchronicity flipping through my head
Take care and keep safe and warm. Hope the squirrels enjoy their treat.
