Goings ons
Wow, three days since my last post, time is certainly flying by. I have had time to write, just nothing much of interest to say, even now I'll keep it short and sweet...
- We went to SuprT's new house on Friday, it is beautiful! It was nice to see all the kids.
- We missed the projected 10 inches of snow by about 50 kms, and ended up with only about 2
- Detroit is reported the 5th snowiest winter on record. I forget the inches, but suffice to say: a lot.
- I was unfairly hung-over for much of yesterday. Billy's friend popped by for a 7 hour visit, and he brought his sweet pooch.
- TOL popped by, (literally, for like 10 minutes) with her puppy Schmeichel, (fun to say, not to type...) and they played, meanwhile Halia missed all the fun as she was at MomG's.
- The Easter Egg Hunt was a success. The ground was pretty much frozen so it wasn't too muddy, and there were more people there than 2 years ago, (it didn't happen last year). Halia won a dog bone and a light up leash, (which doesn't work well - rats! I could have been a HUGE box of milkbones... ) and Dave (on behalf of Lilly) won only a small bone which was pretty funny because looking at his prize card I was convinced that he was going to win the grand prize... haha, oh well, it's really not about the prizes...
- Here is a sub list of some dog breeds we saw at the walk:
- Bouvier (s) (huge!)
- Labs of all kinds
- Basenji (they are fairly rare...)
- Collies
- Bichon Frise
- Bullmastiff, (I wanted to squeeze his cheeks!)
- 2 Brittanys (gorgeous)
- Pug (love the pug)
- Welsh Terrier
- A sweet small rescue Greyhound
- One Visula
- Bulldog, not sure which kind...)
- Either a malamute or a huskie, I can't tell the difference... sorry DD
- 2 basset hounds
- 1 sweet beagle
- Boxer (s)
- A few chihuahuas
- Dogue de Bourdeaux
- Dachshund
- Doberman
- Newfoundland (HUGE!)
- German short haired pointer
- Poodles (a black one was trimmed for show with pink bunny ears...)
- A smattering of small terriers, one wearing a camo jacket, another a tutu...
- And of course, one gorgeous, if not slightly portly Rhodesian Ridgeback! (TOL reported seeing a fat rhody at PetSmart... so Halia is not alone... or the fattest...)
I'm sure there is about a dozen or so breeds I missed...
I'm not sure what is up today with my mom and the kids, easter egg hunt wise... I'm fairly certain that it will not be outside, as it is a sunny 18*F!! Brrr! Did you know that we golfed for the first time last year March 30th, then the 31st... that is less than a week away and there we haven't had 3 days in a row above freezing since I don't know when! Ahhh! I'm going crazy! I just want to golf! I want to be warm! I want to be outside! Arg!
Oh, so anyway, we're going to MomG's house today for turkey (yes!) because someone doesn't like ham, (wah, wah, wah), so it's turkey for dinner!
Well, life's good, (except the weather), and my hair is out of control due to late night hot tub hijinx!
