This morning started with those wonderful turquoise skies but alas they have turned to snow clouds! I am working on loving those too, but there is something about that blue that just catches my heart and runs with it! I do love the billows of the snow clouds, the warmth that comes after the arctic cold. I love the memories of Borger. We would get out at night in the snow and play. It would be so warm. The crunch crunch crunch of our boots stomping down the street.

Olive and I went to the park this morning. She loves to sniff out all the wild animals that have been there before her. I don't know what she is so sure has been there. You can tell by the loft of her tail the scariness of the animal. She is such a funny dog!

I have been doing a bit of cooking. I love to cook. Stew is such a great winter food. I added V8 to it. Who knew it would be such a wonderful addition? Just pouring it in made me feel as if I was add a jar of vitamins! Haha!

I have the fire going (that would be the pellet stove) and the heat going. I can not seem to get warm this year! That may be my problem with the winter coming.... I am going to have to work on that!
