Bring it On

 

Smudge, the smallest kitten, a girl

Dotsy, sex unknown, with muted calico Calypso, up in the linen cabinet

Since the clinic today was cancelled, I moved the big boys, Hood and Chuggers, to the garage.  The other five, who include two kittens (Smudge and Half Pint) along with Calypso, Dotsy and Minnow, another black tux, are in the bathroom.   That got all the traps out of the bathroom and me some room.  I cleaned up in there, too.   With luck, all seven will be fixed tomorrow.

We had more snow last night, then it got cold, down in mid 20's.  Cat yard wire was again heavy in snow, which I've now removed, and it was broken in spots again, fixed those spots.

I snow shoveled the sidewalk and called it good for the day and its not even noon!

Plumbers at the neighbors house.  I hope they didn't have broken pipes.

I let a faucet dribble last night.   Because that's all I need to add on---broken pipes under the house.

I guess we may have more snow tonight. 

 Bring it on.   

Cat yard wire, from underneath, this morning, again heavy with snow.

I cleared off the car of snow last night but this morning, another couple inches on it.

  3. The chicken wire with snow on top is pretty cool to see. However, I'm sure it would be a lot easier for you if you didn't have to clean it off or fix it.

    1. It is very cool. Its just the weight it can't bear. I did have two 8 foot 2x2's and attached small boards to one end of each. The boards are about one foot by two feet or a little smaller and were scrap pieces. So I hoisted those vertical in the cat yard, to hold it up and they're working well. If I get another couple 8 foot 2x2's to use for same purpose, will be all good, as far as holding up that sagging old wire.
