Flurries and a Warming Trend on the Prairie
Posted by: plapman, 2:38 PM GMT on February 26, 2010 +0
day will be cloudy with a 30% chance of flurries this morning and early this afternoon. The high is expected to be near -7C(19F).
Tonight will remain cloudy with a low near -14C(6F).


The neighbor took Abbey for a walk yesterday. She's dog sitting for a friend and had 3 dogs in tow but said it went well without too much tangling of leashes.


==============================================================
The Queen took me shopping yesterday. I've learn t that if I stay close to the cart she can't loose me. We used to go and I'd spend most of my time looking for her. I swear she can go into invisible mode.
My project yesterday as to install a new toilet seat. What used to take 5 minutes took me an hour but I got it done. The bolts holding the old one were corroded and gave me problems. The Queen won't let me use power tools for fear I'll cut myself. I had to loosen them by hand.

Good morning Tony. Looks like the East is having their revenge on us...LOL Yup we are seeing heavy snow at the moment with alot of blowing snow coming out of the East. Its unusual for us to get anything from that direction.

I remember Dad always saying winter was not over until you got that good Eastern Storm. Hopefully this is what this is...

Have a great day dear one. Glad you were able to get out for a bit.

Afternoon Tony, easterly with a vengence still underway, for us a rain event, a little inland becoming wet snow with freezng rain the order of the day, guess will take what we have going.
You are suggesting that you were allowed to play with power tools at one time, I don't have enough fingers to keep one fed so steer clear as much as possible.
Have a good one.
