...still with a high wind. COLD! Walked Charlie at 7:30 this morning. Luckily I have a few pieces of MN clothing. Checked the mail as I need my carrier to stop by to pick up DD's New Years gift box. Luckily I checked on pricing... it went up $5.00.
But she will get it by Wed or Thursday. I love their Prepaid boxes. Tonight will go down to 29 so won't turn the well back on till Tuesday about 10am. High will be 65, 74 wed, bur thurs night dropping to 29. Day temps will be climbing into 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, then a dip back to 50s, then up again by 10 degrees each day.

Jan & Feb can be cold here but considering that the past three years have had warm and warm Falls, I don't know.

Thing is will we have another Feb Freeze like last year? I hope not for the power companies didn't change or upgrade anything. The total dead due to that crisis is now 210 folks.

Thank goodness I live in a district with a real good power company. Power only went down twice for 4 hrs. Then no more then 2 hrs per day. Still not good. Especially for many folks who live in the Hill Country. Bitterly cold.

I'm training Charlie to recognize the 10:30am alarm for his morning walk. Right now he comes and stands next to me and gives me a hug if I am at my desk at 10am. I want that extra half hour.

Today is payday.. whooeee!!! Paying all my bills.

Well, off to layer it's up to 40 degrees. A lot of cedar pollen is no longer on the branches. Thank you stiff breeze. So far neither of us has sneezed. Knocking on wood.

My arm that I broke is aching... plus my tendonitis is driving me crazy. It was caused by the sling they had me in. Babe crushed my upper arm bone and they had to let my arm hang so it would reheal sorta. All those pieces drew back together and my arm is stronger then before. But my arm still aches along with the tendonitis pain.

Oh well it's been since the 1994 when Babe threw herself on top of me... she threw me onto the ground first. She hated me riding her but loved me feeding, grooming and doing ground work with her. What a Bimbo!

Ok Charlies alarm is set to go off in a few minutes. At least it's in the 40s now and no breeze. So lovely sunny day.

Hope everyone had a grand new years. Wishing is all better 2022.

Stay warm if you can.
