Snow???

Yep.  It is snowing today.  Crazy. 

On another note, check out my new license plate... (Texan was already taken)



I really miss Texas, but it is starting to feel more like home here.  I am making friends and trying to fill my days with things to do.  Going to the gym has been such a blessing.  Having just 45 minutes to myself is really nice.  Plus, I feel a little better about myself since I've been working out.  Slow but steady is what they say.  Last time I checked I had lost 4 pounds in about 3 1/2 weeks. I'll take that! 

Funny story- So, we live out in the country (well, almost).  There are lots of deer and other wildlife that pass through our backyard.  Last night, Chris let Anna out.  After a few minutes, I hear him yelling her name.  He comes rushing into the bathroom asking for a flashlight.  I of course want to know what is going on.  He tells me Anna is in a scuffle with something outside.  Horrible things go through my mind - like how my dog is being killed my a coyote (yes, we have them here) or will smell like a skunk (which are all over the place).  So, I find the flashlight, put on a coat and rush outside.  We find Anna standing next to a tree.  She won't come when called and doesn't even really recognize that we are there.  I look up in the tree and see a shape. I ask Chris to shine his light up there thinking it is a bird's nest.  Nope.  It was a raccoon.  A scared to death raccoon. 

We finally get Anna inside, but she continues to growl all night.  I found out why this morning.  One of my bird feeders had been stolen!  I eventually found it out in the yard with all of the feed having been eaten.  Little stinker ate my bird seed!

I am just glad it wasn't a coyote.
