Good Morning!!!

Oooooh, a whole 32° as I write...
Now, is that 32° freezing, or is it thawing?
Or is it freezing in the Autumn, and thawing in the Springtime?
(And yes, I am serious kids... I just never could figure that one out)!

I know that in Fall, we do not want it to be thirty~two degrees... and yet, all Winter long, we look forward to that magical temp...
Go figure...

I had a friend to help me do the preps for winter within the flower bed. The darned thing followed me all over! Kinda spooky, but a BIG help too!

.
.
First it grabbed the rake to help me level the ground before it freezes.
.
.
.
Then to help me move a few rocks...
.
.
W
Working up a sweat, the poor thing tried to find water...
.
DRY!!!
.
And none to be found here either...
.
.
So it sucked the old birdbath dry...
.
.
So then, thirst quenched, it is time to get back to work.
.
It helped me harvest the last of the garden...
.
.
We cleaned the cover for the sandbox...
.
.
And I had help to pick a few last apples too
.
.
And it helped me clean out the birdbox too
.
.
or two...
.
.
It helped me keep the dogs in line too...
First Punk...
.
.
Then even her Mama~Milly!!!
.
.
Miss~Mama~Milly didn't mind either...
(Until it tried to break into her kennel)...
.
.
And then it succeeded in breaking in her house!
.
.
But quick thinking and a quick jump
to the back wall of her kennel saved its life...
.
.
And from there, another jump to the pumphouse
.
hehehe
But the window was locked,
...and my friend got
REALLY mad.
.
And all that anger is what fueled its crime spree.

(But you will have to wait til later to find out what happened then).
.

I must get busy... (Back to freezing or thawing or whatever it's doing)!

Life in Flintville goes on.
And all is well with our world...


And I hope all is well with yours too!

XOXO
