Mornings With Moula

The air is warming up which causes a deep fog around the melting mounds of snow It rains and rains without warning day and night. And we nap and we wait together Dusty dances to the beat of the rain outside. But the rest of us just want the sun to return. If it ever returns... Ciao for now my friends...  

The weather outside is not very nice. It is still icy ad snow filled and now the mist and fog has settled in.     It doesn't much matter though because we are warm and cozy inside. We watch out the window for the little birds that take the seed Mum and Dad puts out for them. It's fun watching them from the warmth of our kitchen. And of course, we always try to get some treats fromMum. Ciao for now my friends...

A few years ago, Izzy and Mum and Dad went on a road trip to where Mum grew up. There was a lovely shop filled with everything a dog could dream of and Izzy got to pick out a toy and a chewing bone and she tried on some hand made sweaters just for fun. There was one sweater that had the flag from Dad's country on it and of course- we  ARE English Labradors so Izzy got a sweater. The shop thought she was adorable and put Izzy's photo on their page. Izzy said it was a lovely shop and wonderful people and she wanted to live there...... She was a hit! As soon as the sweater was unpacked and put on the brick room table, Mia- who was still a young puppy,  snatched it up and without anyone knowing, chewed the neck to bits. Mum was heartbroken. Then Mum asked  if anyone could possible fix the sweater. Auntie Grace stepped up. Many years passed with everyone being so busy in their lives  until yesterday when a package arrived.   It was Izzy;s sweater- all patched up with...

Mum says it will rain for the next week or so. I think she was kidding but maybe not. So when it is raining outside- we find places to nap and hide until the sun returns. By the fire is nice and cozy. And in the kitchen while Mum works around us is restful too. There really isn't much to do while we wait for the sun to return. So we will just have to suffer onwards. Ciao for now my friends...  

It was supposed to be a rainy morning but the clouds went away and  the sky was blue and the air warmed up enough to start melting away the mountains of snow. It was almost like spring  outside. Mum was busy chopping ice to  make it melt easier. And we helped by entertaining her. Izzy stopped to ask if she could help get the ice and snow off the cover of the pool but Mum just rolled her eyes at her. We are now reminded that indeed, better weather is just around the corner. Even the squirrels and little birds are busy darting here and there. All of the darkness is slowly melting away. I can't wait-can you? Ciao for now my friends...
