Different day, same white stuff.
Probably about 3-4 inches last night.
Shovelled driveway and MIL/FIL driveway...
Dang I'm getting tired of this Winter already.
Wife is in full Christmas freak out mode.. she does this every year.
She bundles everything to give everyone a Merry Christmas, but she
does it all herself and doesn't accept any help, or very little.
I'd prefer that Christmas was a 'family' effort, but my wife has never
felt like that.
She pushed herself too much.
We won't have 'Eldest' and family this year for Christmas (maybe New Year?)
So it'll just be me, wife, dog, son and girlfriend and maybe middle daughter,
baby, boyfriend, his kids visiting.
I think Ashley may move in with us in the New Year.
That's enough details for an open post! (Thanks NSA).
Saw an item today that the NSA collects kids letters to Santa .. sad.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! (Clue the Music, Maestro!)
I've shovelled about 4-5 inches today so far..
Hard to tell how much has fallen because it's blowing all over the place.
The wind is coming from lake Huron, so now I know what the folks in Muskegan
feel like...

The Frigid MidWest
It's a bad start to Winter and it's still techically Autumn/Fall until 12/21.
High temps in the high teens/low 20s and lows in the single digits, low teens
this week. We got about 3-4 inches a few days ago, it rained the next night and melted it then
we got some more that froze.
The Au Sable river might very well freeze this week.
On a happier note, my son and his girlfriend have found an appartment
and my wife is putting together a 'starter kit' of items that they are going to need.
We will be able to empty some of the furniture in the garage and give it to them
Lindsey Violet is not handling her switch from breast feeding to formula well.
The doctor put her on a soy formula to ease the transition.
Marley found a new friend at my daughter's boyfriends house. He has 3 dogs, but the youngest
one and Marley really hit it off!... We'll have to schedule 'play dates' for Mr. Marley with
Dukey (He's a Pit Bull). Marley seems to be the dominant one so far... reminds me of
'Legally Blonde 2'... :)

More Marley and welcome Lindsey Violet
Marley has to be only about 1 year old. He had never seen snow until last week.
Didn't know what to do, whether to walk on it, eat it.. It was pretty funny.
The Snow melted 2 days ago and it's been dry, so I've been taking him for long
walks while the weather is clear. Pretty soon, he'll have to pee in whatever space
of lawn 'Grandpa' can clear out side the door.
It's perishing cold today and tonight. May get down to the single digits and then
more snow Sunday/Monday.
Here's a picture of my new grand daughter, Lindsey Violet, born October 9th, 3:00am
'Eldest' is now preggers too, so I'll have 3 grand children to spoil=bore pretty soon.
Hope the like stories about the 50s, 60, etc... :) TIC

There's a new dog in Town
and his name is 'Marley'
We got a little 1y-18mo Chihuaha pup a month ago.
He is very active! ( had to hold him still to take the picture)
He spends most of the day with my wife on her couch/bed, except
when she's out at pottery or I'm taking hme for walks.
He is so active I have to take him for more, and longer , walks than
'Miss Bella'... my legs are getting worn down.
I should take my HP pedometer and document how much .
Still, we have snow in the forecast for the weekend, so there
may be a lot less 'walkies' soon.
It's hard to get a picture of him - he doesn't keep still
here's my best shot so far.
Don't know what we are going to do today - high of 26F and to tonight's low of 11F
no walkies today...

My first attempt at pottery
My wife did a lot of the work, but I actually spun it or whatever they call it.
She trimmed it and picked the glaze. I like it!
I don't know what to call it yet, maybe 'Mr Pots'... just kidding...
