Finally Getting Dug Out!!!

[Janet]

Many years ago we had a lab that did not like being in the house at all. Was a wonderful loving dog, but didn't like being inside. So we connected a fence to the garage and cut a swinging door in it so he could go in and out of the garage whenever he wanted. The only time he would want to stay in the house over night was if the temp was in the teens and twenties. Other than that, he wanted to be out. Funny thing was that even though he was an outside dog, by his choice, he never once pottied in the house. He passed of old age...and we still talk about him quite often.

Now when we take the little ones out to play, we all go in the fenced area. This spring we are putting up a better fence with a larger area so we can take the little ones out and will remove the one there now.

Wow! That's some pretty good snow drifts!! My family would be having a hay day in them!! If you do have school tomorrow please drive carefully.

Janet thanks for sharing the photos, what beautiful snow drifts.. You have very nice neighbors count yourself lucky. In our area we didnt get much snow, but we have mostly ice and the roads are treacheous. Didnt go out today. Everyone stay warm and safe.

We're home again today. I think I'm about to lose my mind!!! I want spring so bad I can't stand it. Not sure if we'll have school tomorrow, I'll just have to wait and see. I'm sure if we do, it will be a two hour delay. So I'll take advantage of today and give all the babies their bath. That way if I can get out, I'll have a weekend of no responsibilities.

Janet enjoy your days off, the main roads by me are cleared they say, but the side streets are icy, I am awaiting a contract that I have to fax to the attys. So I may have to go out later, Good idea about giving the babies their baths, I gave Gucci a bath earlier.

I wish I could trade with you Janet! I'd love a good excuse to stay home for a couple of days. LOL

Looks like we're going this morning. Can't believe we are the only county school going. Frankfort schools are, but most of them are in town with better roads. AND the temp is -9 degrees with a -20 degree windchill. Just what county kids need to stand out in waiting for a bus. Sometimes I wish our superintendant was a woman, because sometimes this man has no clue!

I mean, I'm glad to be going back really, but for crying out loud, even I know it's too dangerous for the kids and the buses. We still have some county roads down to one lane. I hope I don't meet anyone, because they are going to have to be the ones to get stuck...not me with a bus load of kids.
