It's a snowy wet day. Vivian is outside, wanting to get away from the kiddo. She's starting to put on a lot of weight, so maybe being outside she'll get a lot more exercise.
The weather is getting wacky. Next week will see most days drop below freezing again. If it's a temporary dip the maple sap should be good. If not, then not only with the maple syrup be of a lesser quality, but there will also be a lot more freeze damage to the trees. See, trees drop their sap to keep from having expansion problems, which is why with maple trees, the first run of sap has a high sugar content.
Spending the day catching up, but so far I'm just procrastinating. Time to change that.
Hope you're all having a good day.

Well, the day started out great! But then Laura the Wonder Dog pulled out a couple of stitches (her third set!), and it looks like she will be going back for the fourth set on Monday.
We've tried a collar (too small and made no difference), and last time the vet gave us some men's boxer shorts for her to wear (blue/grey checked Fruit of the Loom!), but she just tore at the stitches through the fabric. We're trying yet another, even larger collar and hoping not to have to pay for a third surgery to do the repairs this time. Hope he can do it with a local.
I am glad the kitties are doing well and are making themselves at home. Must be fun to watch the little one, even if she does annoy her mum.
Ouch, poor Laura. She's just doing what comes naturally. And collars are sometimes necessary, even if it makes them look like miniature cheerleaders.
Laura as cheerleader? That cracked me up! "Go team! Woof!"
She did look rather cute in her boxer shorts. I had to keep covering my mouth so she wouldn't notice me snickering at her.
