*** muddy paws ***

so it rained all day today ..
even heard thunder at times..
very weird...
we still have some...
not much ..
but some snow...
the weather has been warm..
40 degrees ..
so wet.. muddy.. melty ..
gray.. yucky..
don't make me get outta bed days!
but i have learned a few things from
this day of rain
&
the warm days before it ..

1)i swear next year i will rake the leaves
before winter ...
now i know what happens if i don't & i don't advice skipping a year!!

2)pick up dog poo in the winter ..
even if it gets buried by the snow!!
&

3)will remember to turn on the heating on the roof..
beautiful icicles
but what a nasty ice dam!!

all things i am learning being back in minnesota
&
controlling my own destiny!!
scary at times
but
this i can do right?!
