Puppy Paws and The Banshee Unleashed!

Good Morning All...

EXPECT WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS OF 25 TO 35 MPH WITH GUSTS AROUND 45 MPH THROUGH THIS MORNING. A WIND ADVISORY MEANS THAT SUSTAINED WINDS OF 30 MPH OR GREATER...OR WIND GUSTS OF 45 MPH ARE EXPECTED. WINDS THIS STRONG CAN MAKE DRIVING DIFFICULT...ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES. USE EXTRA CAUTION.

To have looked at my forecast after coming on the computer, (and after 'hearing' what was going on outside), I see that my trip to the store will be under the yellow caution flag... hehehe I shall take the backroads and avoid any empty semis! But I do love to hear the wind on the old tin roof above my head in the bedroom. I don't know why that is so comforting; guess because I have heard it for almost my whole life! And no, the roof is not going to fly off anytime soon; it just has a whip~ripple sound when it is windy...

I also have heard on the news that my little corner of the world might possibly be "IN FOR" a major storm this weekend... Cowards that the weathermen are up here, not one channel is telling us what, exactly, WILL happen. I have heard anything from snow and rain and sleet, to BLIZZARD... Hmmmm.... (Blizzards?... me no likey)!

Yesterday though was absolutely BEAUTIMOUS! Casey and Roberta came for lunch, (and even brought their own)... Casey had to get back to school, and Berta had errands to run. When Roberta stopped back, we went out to 'play' in the sunshine, (mid 40's in February? Happily now, we'll take it)!

For some odd strange reason, it also makes the dogs very happy too! (Well, for the most part anyway)...

.........

'til Punkies paws get a bit cold... from digging in the ice from the laundry discharge...

But that was all AFTER they had SO much fun!

.....................

Miss Milly Smiling......................................Miss Punk, watching her toy

.

.

.

.................

Milly thieves Punkies toy...........................Berta thieves it back from Milly

.

.

.

Enough fighting over the squeak burger, and out comes the "fetch" toy...

.

.

Milly gets bored real fast; but Punkie's hanging in there!!!

.

.

and then on to Punks most favorite game...

.

.

Punk, gets her Frisbee ~and checks on Miss Mama Milly too...

.

.

Punks old frisbee, which she loves...lasted all of 5 minutes... tops. (I had buried it in a snowbank about a month ago and couldn't find it until some snow had melted)...

Now I feel so bad for her. (No, they don't sell Frisbees in Wisconsin in the wintertime).

.

.

.

Poor little Punkin.... No more Frisbee... So sad...

.

.

.

Time to find other toys then. Open the garage door, and it was time for (KC's) volleyball!

.

.

.

Waiting for the ball to drop!

And yes, Miss Punk hits it with her collarbone to send it back to Berta!

.

.

.

............

The volleyball dog!!! ..............................OH!; and Berta too!

.

.

.

Sometimes her "aim" is a little off... hehehe ~~And they both have to walk in the mud to 'fetch' that wayward volleyball; but I do think Punk could play for hours...

.

.

The look of UTTER JOY on Miss Punks face is priceless; even IF her 'aim' isn't the best!

.

.

.

Checking inside the house every few minutes to see if we would hear Master Gabriel, up from his nap, I'd gone in for something... and he was banshee screaming to high heaven! You can CLICK HERE to check Roberta's blog as to WHY he was so very upset... But as always, Grandma can find $omething to distract him for a little bit...

.

.

Yup; $20.00 bills will put a smile on anyones face!

.

.

.

Sorry that my flash didn't go off for that picture... I tried to make it a little less 'grainier' and failed; (but in my own defense, it was almost black when I'd begun)!

...And yes, babies must wear jackets and hats outside, even IF it is in the 40's... (We big babies don't though; it's way too nice for that).

Now, on to the real important stuff here...

***I get in a bit of a quandary at times, not knowing who has an OPEN blog; and whose might be private and closed. Every now and then I wish to share things that you have written and that I have read etc, but I hesitate to do so because I do not know your status. (Perhaps there is a way for me to "tell", but if there is, I do not know what it is). Would you please hit the comment button and let me know if yours is open or private. I would really appreciate knowing, because then I know if I can link to your page or not.

I'd better close, but not before a final thought for the day!

.

.

.

hehehe (And oops, I have forgotten where I've stolen it from too)...

.

.

.

Have a wondermous day!!!

XOXO
Anne!
