Time To Move It

 It's that time of year again, roll up the heat track mats, it was a little rainy so I had to let them dry.

Move the snowblower back into the rear of the garage and bring out the lawn mower. And heave out  a bunch of junk that accumulates through the winter.
I'm working on this quilt

Using up some bears, foxes and llamas oh my!
I'm making really good progress on using up my excessive stash. Just a few more projects ought to get me under control...and ready for ther upcoming All iowa Shop Hop!

Snow! Snow! Snow!

 

We got the first snow right after Thanksgiving and it seems like we go a few days of nice weather and then more snow.
Ringo likes it well enough!


And I'm sure glad I got the heat track mats out when I did! 

This little guy wasn't quite ready for the first snow
He didn't bring his snow boots and he didn't pack his snow pants and hat. Luckily, I had one of ben's old hats, and some littler knit gloves and he had his hiker shoes, so it wasn't terrible. 
Here's what he does.....
Goes out and eats snow.

I keep telling him he's not a dog, but still, he loves to eat snow. Watch for that yellow snow though Dilly Boy!
And don't call DHS on me either-he always pops out the door without a coat on......and yesterday it was in PJs and slippers!
It was only about 20degrees out, but he wanted to go out so he took off FAST! Well at least he had Grampa's hat on!!LOL!
I had to chase him around to the back of the house before I caught up to him!
There we go, all outfitted correctly!

Out eating snow with Ringo.

Winter is Coming

So, I went out to put down the Heat Trac mats, in preparation for the winter and found that my extension cord had ruined the outlet! Yikes!
 Ben, the wonder son, stopped over and relaced it in no time at all. I purchased a new extension cord with heavier wire (10) off of Amazon and we're good to go again. 

There! All plugged in and good to go!
Ringo thinks it looks pretty good. I had stored the mats rolled up in the boxes they came in, but they seem to be laying pretty flat now that they are warmed up. I guess I better go blow some leaves away pretty soon, it never ends, does it!
