Well its that time of year. I pack up my sleigh (the focus) full of presents, and LOTS of warm, heavy clothes...and make the 8 hr drive up to MA. With benadryl in the doggies tummy, and Erin by my side playing "mommy bird" (thats another story for another day) we made it in pretty good time...almost exactly 8 hrs. Connecticut was seriously bumper to bumper from the time we entered the state till the time we exited.
The dog finally woke up, poor guy...to a rude awakening of cold cold weather and a potty full of snow and ice. He slipped, he slid, he skidded as he tried to lift his leg. Had to crate him in my bedroom since he slept 8 hrs driving up, and was wide awake all night.
Up this morning, and out the door...think he's finally resigned to making yellow snow, cant find any grass anywhere to water. I'm excited, the snow slows him down enough that I can just let him righ out the back door and he cant run away anywhere. We had a nice off the leash walk in the woods on the trails behind my house. Then went to the soccer field and played "catch me."
I think Emmitt could get used to this living out in the woods in a nice neighborhood. Hes calm, and happy to be off the leash. Doesnt go too far from me, and always always comes right back when I call him.
I know where I'm going to move him next....! (and no, there wont be snow)
Well addressing the 13 inches below...we are getting a BLIZZARD with wind and snow and everything. I shoveled the deck only 30 min ago, and already its past my ankles again....Tomorrow I will wake to snow up to my knees...so sad. I can deal with the inch that was on the ground already....up to my knees; not cool!
