Like Old Times

Winter is still here. Here's a look at that Infamous Fuzz clearing up a bit of this global warming. The shameful truth is, if you dig far enough into his shadowy past, The Fuzz actually has Yankee origins. So this is not a complete novelty to him. But he would be perfectly satisfied to leave it as a once a year thing. Just a little reminder of The Old Country.
We spent the weekend holed up here in the woods. By Sunday evening they had called off school, but The Fuzz fully expected to work. It turned out otherwise. It seems that although the street dept. has been quite busy, there would be no garbage pick ups today.
He was given the option of taking the day off (as a "vacation" day). So he figured he'd take it. It wasn't a wasted trip into town since there were some errands to run anyway. 1st was to feed the cat. This little fella is on the edge, mentally, and could not handle the move to the forest. So since we come by the old place frequently, we just feed him there. He seems to get by OK.
Then, The Fuzz slipped by the Home Improvement Store to pick up a couple boards for a future project. Next door was the Office Max for an ink cartridge for our non functioning printer*. Lastly, a stop at the Grocery Store for cat, dog and people food.
He made it home safe and sound. Since "they" were calling for more of this questionable weather, he decided to take down another dead tree in the nearby woods. After a bit of unpleasantness with the chainsaw, this was accomplished and The Fuzz and His Sweetie stacked the fresh fuel near the trailer.
All in all, not a bad day. And for supper, a glass of wine and some hamburgers!

Don't forget about our latest extremely challenging Mystery Pix.

*Unfortunately, it's still non-functional.

I wish shoveling snow was a once a year thing too now! We have had to shovel all our walk ways at least once a day, if not twice, for the last month......arrrrgh! But I guess we got to keep up with these crazy sidewalk cleaning Germans or their heads might explode.
