HOPE

Image
  We used to dream you know.   We used to dream of going places ad seeing new things or revisiting places we have been before. We used to dream of meadows filled with wildflowers and fragrant breezes. We used to dream of seeing new faces and old faces and freiends that long since have stayed away. We used to dream of so many things that now we are left with one thing. HOPE.  Ciao for now my friends...

THE SNOW MELT

Image
It's different this time around. The snow isn't Muddy  and it has not melted much in these very cold days. With or without sun, the snow is less icy but still not really melting. The snow is crunchy under our feet which makes us want to frolic as if the snow had just fallen from the sky.  Izzy  just wanted it all to be gone. But Dusty even got her Jolly ball out from under the bench! And her green little bone. We know the snow can't last forever but we sure miss the green grass!  Ciao for now my friends...

THE THAW?

Image
Outside seemed a bit more bearable this morning. t looked like the sun was making it's way to us There was a bit of melting in the road in front of our house. But alas, it was short lived. I suppose we will just have to nap a bit longer until this very cold winter starts to thaw. It's a hard life, but someone has to do it. Ciao for now my friends...  

HEAT WAVE!

Image
We woke up this morning to brilliant sunshine and the house did not feel like an igloo.- Quite. Dad gave us chewing bones in the mornng sun. And we thught with the sun and the warmth of the house that we were indeed having a heat wave. It did feel a bit warmer in the sun., inside and out but lets face it- it is still bloody cold out!   Ciao for now my friends...

SOFA QUEENS.

Image
We love to be by the fire in the comfy chairs when the cold winds are outside with the snow and ice. Mum and Dad find it very difficult to fnd their spots on the comfy chairs and sofas. We don't aways make way for them when the fire is nice and warm. And we move around freely from chair to chair. Even when we are asked to move, it's more like "Are you kidding me?" Ciao for now my friends...  

ICE DAMS!

Image
We have leaks in the kitchen where the ice dams outside. It has never been so cold for so long here. We hunker down by the fire to keep us warm. I have my own special spot on Mum's sofa. Izzy keeps asking when this weather will stop being so cold. Dusty seems to like the dripping water in the kitchen- Mum, not so much. She likes to dry off by the fire too. And Mia alternates from the sofa to the comfy bed. Boy! I can't wait for Spring! Ciao for now my friends...  

ICE TUNNELS

Image
Poor Dusty is wanting to play with any of us these days. She even tried to get the chickens to play with her outside but it was just too cold. All I want to do is nap wherever it is warm. Izzy is a good sport when t comes to her niece Dusty. She puts up with  a lot. And she does really want to go outside to play. But the rest of us know to ask for chewing bones. Even in the sun, it is very very cold. he snow has turned to ice tunnels. And we can only dream of warmer days. Ciao for now my friends...
