Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~

We didn't get out to walk at all this week.    Mom hasn't felt well and she googled her many symptoms and after taking the test, she found out that she has covid.    
Playtime has been happening inside~
At one point she went around to the side of the house where lots of spring blooming flowers are planted and she found baby Hyacinths coming up☺
She also discovered that the Lenten Rose was coming into bloom☺
Happy Friday, everyone!   Mom says that next week we will walk for sure!
Love ya lots♥

Washy Wednesday

 Recently, mom found another Furdry bathrobe and was thrilled to find one in a medium and she couldn't hit the "buy it now" button fast enough!

Today was my March bath~

The only problem was when she put it on me after my bath and pulled my tail through the end, it was tight - too tight and it was squeezing my puppy balls so mom had to leave my tail out and the rest of the robe worked out just fine.   She said the expression on my face was priceless and she proceeded to give me lots of kisses to make up for it☺

Happy Wednesday!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

We are back to walking every day and it's been warmer than it has been so I haven't had to wear my coat.
We still have snow on the ground.   Some places have more than others~
These bushes look like they were just pruned!
I found a spot with no snow at all under my feets~
We did find this one interesting dried flower.      We looked it up and it's a Sensitive Fern or Bead Fern.   Peeps use the fern fronds in flower arrangements~
On a very sad note~
Landlord Bob passed away on Wednesday.   He had pancreatic cancer.   We only found out the day after Valentine's day and now he's gone.   We will miss him so very much.   He was wonderful man - the best - and he had so many friends.   He loved working outside in his yard and he loved working on his antique cars and trucks.    Our hearts go out to Landlady Maryanne and their family♥
Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

These pictures are from last weekend as we were not doing too much walking with so much ice out there~
The first thing we saw was this poster and we are happy to report that the kitty is now home - safe, sound and warm♥
This is a hairy poison ivy vine~
I can stand on top of the snow without falling in!
The dried Sedum is almost buried by the snow and ice~
I did get to walk up and down our driveway to explore!
Happy Friday, everyone!

Love ya lots♥

Wonderful Wednesday

 I got a treat ball!  I roll it and it dispenses yummy treats!

The treats have to be sorta large or it makes it very easy for me to roll them out without hardly trying at all☺
I like this ball!  It's fun!
Happy Wednesday!

Love ya lots♥

Very Icy Monday

 Mom announced that it was time to head outside for "business" so we both got our coats on and bundled up as it's cold and the wind is whipping.  Thank goodness for ice cleats or mom wouldn't have been able to walk safely.

My beautiful snow is totally ice covered!
The glare is blinding!
Mom told me that all this is good for is ice skating!
Our weather is going to be freezing cold all week so no walkies will be happening.  We are grateful that the wind is knocking all of the ice off the tree branches.   Paws and fingers are crossed there won't be a power outage.
Happy Monday and Happy President's Day!
Love ya lots♥

Icy Sunday

 Yesterday and into last night, just over an inch of snow fell and then the rain started and it's still raining and at 30 degrees F everything has turned to ice~

My tail is wagging as I want to stay outside and play but mom says no.   It's dangerous, Duke!

I am doing my morning business under the ice covered apple tree and mom was praying no branches were going to break while we were underneath them.  
The pink dogwood tree is covered in ice too and you can see the slushy "pond" to the right of it.   
Farmer Will plowed the driveway around 2:30am and it's now a skating rink.  Our temps are supposed to climb this afternoon and then the wind event will begin.     Mom is praying we don't lose our power.

I sure hope my fun snow is not ruined!

Love ya lots♥
