My new dogs

Thursday, 2 December 2010

I've got about 5 inches!

Looking at the snow on the bird feeder I'd estimate 4-5 inches. The dog loved it but not for long. She stepped out into it. Stood still for a few seconds taking it all in, then hopped a few steps and squatted to pee. She then did a wild, throwing herself about, sort of dance and dashed for the door to come in again. Made her all frisky :)

Jen was out in it as early as she could to take photos and then clear her car. She attempted to make a snow man but apparently it's the wrong kind of snow LOL.

The harbour is beyond the trees in the distance but lost in falling snow/mist.
The bins are out for the re-cycling collection but I somehow feel the men will not be coming today - Elfin Safety will stop the men running around in icy conditions, never mind the lorry slipping and sliding on the hills.

I am staying home today. Jenny has gone to work as main roads are clear or passable and she has a 4x4. I've texted her with a few shopping needs for her to pick up lunch time or on her way home. Then I'll be set for the weekend. I knew those 12 tins of baked beans would come in handy LOL. A well stocked store cupboard and freezer will see you through any snow-in.

I am layered up today. Undies, t shirt as a vest, leggings instead of tights, skirt and thick jumper. The house is warm and so am I and the dog :) Curtains closed apart from the livng room, and doors shut to keep heat in. Toastie warm!
Do give a thought to any neighbours who might be in trouble. Give them a call to make sure they are ok.
Please stay safe wherever you are. x
