Christmas is coming in...
5 more days

13 degrees below zero the other day. Winter is here. This morning the temp is balmy 24 degrees. The wind is blowing. I can't tell if it is actually snowing, or if the wind is just blowing the snow around. It seems to be piling up a bit though. When you live in an area with tall trees all around you, the wind and snow mixed together can be a little nerve racking. Trees get heavy in the tops. then tip over in the strong wind. You can't hear them when they are falling.....just when they hit the ground.

I have to go attempt to plow more snow today. I don't know where I will push it to. I know the county road dude has created a nice big berm for me to navigate through. Today, I think I will give him his "litter" back.....right into his roadway. He may just give it back to me.

The new plow for the truck is on order. That will make plowing so much easier. Toaka and I will be able to sit in the cab of the truck....heater on...music playing. I can put a baggie of coffee beans on the dash, so the cab will smell like fresh roasted coffee....instead of wet dog. I might even put a piece of jerky there, so Toaka will have a comforting smell as well.

Christmas is close. Make sure you get all your shopping or gift making chores done.

Have a great day.

Toaka says...(singing)
"On the eighth day of Christmas, my daddy gave to me....
eight sticks 'O Bullies
seven milk bone biscuits
six breasts of chicken
FIVE BAGS of JERKY!!!!! (woo hoo!)
four nilla wafers
three bites of bacon
two rawhide chews....
and a pig ear for me....and just me."
