I h...I haven't been shoveling snow, or writing. I have been trying to Ilka-proof my yard. It has been frustrating, to say the least. One side of the yard has chicken wire and/or hardware cloth laid along the fence to keep her from digging out. She managed to find the ONE spot at the end where she could, so she did. <br /><br />We are cold. Okay, you propably wouldn't consider it that cold, but to us it's cold. We are hoping to reach a high of 39F. I'm not holding my breath. It is currently 34F, and the wind chill is 24F. The humidity is 50% (dry!). The dogs and I walked over 3 1/2 miles earlier today, when it was only in the 20's and the windchill in single digits. Ilka doen't like the wind in her face. <br /><br />My nephew-in-law works for the Oklahoma DOT. You know it's bad when the snowplow slides off the road and into the ditch. According to my sister, they left it there. I've driven that road, and I know that ditch. I don't blame them for leaving it. <br /><br />We are supposed to be gatting sleet/winter mix/snow starting tomorrow. It's going to be a mess.<br /><br />Rosemary<br /><br />PS Excellent job of both shoveling snow and writing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
