Ok Winter, Bring on Your Worst...

Now that I am well stocked up, I am ready for winter at its worst...

ok, winter, bring on your worst…


 


now I am ready,


just bought a heated blanket,


so sleeping at night will be comfy,


and for the daytime I got a new pair,


of insulated & waterproof work boots.


 


so bring it on, old man winter,


we spent all our loot,


but now I am ready to grow roots,


and stand up to winter,


as it is always a cold brute.


 


Rufuz had a wonderful day,


got to see his big brother, sinders our horse,


and his mommy, who of course bought him stuff,


snacks like she knows he will like,


as she did for me too,


had dinner at bob evans,


a great meal had by both of us,


delicious and plenty of it,


boy did I over do,


But what else is new?

Good for you, Ed - those boots should help; and your visit and dinner were probably just what you and Rufuz needed.

Think Spring!
