Well, that was not nice, Mother Nature
I took Beth for a walk about 2 today. We made our way down to the end of the block, leaving a trail of blue bags along the way in case we got lost.
By the time we started back, it had gotten noticably colder. And windier. Later I went to the store and on the way home it began a cold rain, which turned to snow about 6 or so.
Yesterday I was complaining it was so warm now I am complaining it is cold and crappy. Mother Nature can't win when it comes to making me happy.
Sheri and Camryn came for dinner, along with Emily. I felt like the old rooster with all those women in the house. Even Beth is a female. I was outnumbered.
We had a great time talking and laughing. We covered almost every topic under the sun and did not seem to bore anyone.
A funny thing happened last night....or rather this morning.
About 1:30 I smelled smoke. It smelled like a campfire smell. I checked the house and all was well. I figured Julia may have a window open and someone was burning brush. I know, at 1:30?
Beth came out of her crate and went to the front door. I put her collar on and went out with her, but I could not smell anything outside. Beth did her business and came right back in.
I say that because what usually happens is she goes out, sniffs, then sits on the sidewalk and looks around for 10 minutes before I bring her in.
After she comes in, she sits by the door waiting to go out again. I usually take her out right before bed, and she usually sniffs and sits, watching the dark world go past.
But I digress.
When Emily was over tonight, I mentioned this and she also was awakened at about 1:30 by the same kind of smell! She also checked her house, but all was well.
And Julia did not have a window open, nor did Emily.. Another mystery, eh?
It reminded me of the time the smoke from Canadian wildfires drifted our way.
Wonder what tomorrow will bring.....warmth/ rain? snow? sun? cold?
Time will tell.
Peace and Love
