Snow Fall

I had to be up early today for my appointment with the insurance agent for my Medicare supplement. It is March and the days of lazy leisure are dwindling.

By early, I mean 9 am. But, given the fact that I have been crawling back into bed and sleeping until 10 am every morning, it is early for me. I dared not go back to bed this morning after the 6:30 dog pee-pee time. I brewed my coffee and settled in my chair to waken. This confused the dogs, as well as the cat.

The dogs just jumped into my lap, but Martha, the boy cat, was miffed. Mornings are his special time with me. He likes to walk with me as I wait for the dogs to come back in. He positions himself between my legs and alternately rubs his entire body on one leg, then the other as we wait for his canine siblings to come inside. We all go back to bed and Martha waits until the dogs are resettled, then he slinks into the bed on the other side of me for a belly rub.

I showered and puttered about until Mr. Medicare showed up. I am all signed up and waiting patiently for my birthday before I have my check-up this year. The temperature seemed to have dropped dramatically while I was signing up. I just could not warm up.

HeWho was running errands (those McBiscuits do not come to him, you know) returned and built a fire. I was just going to sit and sip some hot tea til I got warm. My canines jumped into my lap and we all got toasty warm ..... and fell asleep.

I am not sure what woke me, probably the wind knocking stuff around. Opened my eyes, looked out the window to see that it is snowing! I am so done with cold stuff. I want to dig and prune and mow. Is this some kind of mean joke from Mother Nature?
