Snow Day!

So momma had a snow day today. She didn't hafta go to dat work thing cuz we gots five inches of snow!

And I got to play in it some!! I LUV SNOW!

Melting

 

Da snow dat are. Not me, I are not melting. Ok, I duz kinda melt into my momma when I wants a cuddle, which are always. But I wuz barkin bout my snow. It mostly left and left some MUD in my park. Which I thought wuz VERY fun to bounce through.

Da dreaded B-A-F-F afterwards? Not so much fun, but I guess it are worth it to get to sleep in da big bed wif momma.

Snow Dog!

 

We HAS snow!

I repeat, we HAS snow! So much snow and da streets are frozen dat momma had a snow day and didn't hafta teach today!

Yesterday, she taught Con Law via Zoom since it had started snowing. And I kept barking my opinion and got to make a guest appearance - her students said I wuz cute, so at least their eyes are workin out here in Lubbock.

Yesterday I got a walk in da snow, but today da windchill never got outta da negative temps, so me and momma stayed snuggly and warm inside.

Well, except for when I went out to do my bizness and I barked my butt in da snow bank. Just call me Nanook of da North West.

Furozen

 

So we is still in a deep freeze. It are not really scary cold anymore though, so it are more fun to run around and play in.

We luckily still have power and water, but our city has warned everyone dat water supplies are very low and to only use water for handwashing, drinking, and da toilet. 

Which means we got to skip our weekly bath! Hey, I kinda think we should keep this up!!

Wordless Wednesday

 

Happy Mardi Gras!

Happy Mardi Gras! Laissez les bark temps rouler! Or somefin like dat.

Well, there's still lotsa snow and it are still frigid. Brinley are over it.

 Finley are managing ok. Luckily we haven't lost power, so we are all staying warm here. 

And there's gonna be King Cake tonite! Do polar bears eat king cake? I vote YES!

I'm a Polar Bear!

Well, we is in a Code Red emergency here. At least dat are what da city are saying. They called saying that people could be without power for days since multiple power plants are out. They are also doing rolling blackouts, but they are not always rolling the power back on. Luckily, we haven't lost power - grandma thinks it might be becuz we is very close to a fire station and they won't cut power to a fire station on purpose. 

 

It's sposed to be like 0 or 1 tonite wif windchills of below -15. 

The snow and ice are NOT being nice to Finley. She ackshually kinda likes it which surprised da mommas since she is so thin and arthritic and so naked from her allergies. But she is almost 15 and has very thin skin and the snow/ice is literally cutting her skin and making her bleed when she goes out. If she would use pee pads, we would be doing that, but she won't. So da mommas just try to get her to go quick and then get her cleaned up and warm when she comes back in.

    

Brinley are not a big fan of da snow either. I think she's seen enuf and she seems to prefer a warm spot by da fire.

Me? I'm a polar bear! I just want to sit in da snow and run in da snow and play in da snow. Momma says I are nuts. If it wuz like 25 or somefin, she says I might get to play in it more, but it are dangerously cold, so I hafta come in.  

It's so cold that there wuz ice on the pool (even though it wuz running) this morning. Grandma had to break it up this morning and da mommas is gonna hafta sleep in shifts tonite becuz if we lose power, they gotta go out and immediately drain da pool equipment becuz otherwise it will ice and pipes will break. 

I think da humans have had it wif da cold, but I wish I could get some more play time.

Valentine's Day Snow!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

It are COLD out there! 

Finley are luvin it. She is bouncin around like a puppy out there, but she can't stay out too long since it are very cold and she is old and doesn't have the furs to keep her warm that me and Brinley do.

We wuz so excited to see our first real snow!

Momma even made a movie!

It wuz so much fun to play in! I think I liked it a lil more than Brinley though - she wuz happy to get back inside by the fire in her TV chair, BOL.

But she had fun out there too.

I just wanted to sit in the snow. Momma says she has never seen anything like it. 

I guess I are just a snow girl.

It wuz so much fun to run around in!

Ok, I also let momma get a Valentine's selfie wif me since me and Travis are her Valentines. 

Now let's go play out in da snow again!

Blizzard Watch

 

Usually when we say dere is a blizzard watch in Texas, it means somebody are stopping at DQ. But dis are da real snow kind! 

We don't have any yet, but da latest predictions are 4-8 inches of da white stuff and wind chills of 15 below zero! Our walk today wuz chilly, but nuffin like dat. Momma says it might be da last walk for a couple of days. But if it duz snow, we is gonna get to go play in it. 

We're staying snuggly warm inside for now. 

Sunday Selfies

Hi pals!

So we ackshaully had some snow yesterday!

But it didn't stick to da ground becuz it had been 70 da day before. Finley wuz glad - she duz not like da cold!  

Brinley got all brushed for her selfie today - whether she liked it or not, BOL!

Finley's blood results came back from da vet - her white blood cell count wuz a lil high, but other than that, she's doing pretty good.

Momma said if Brinley had to get brushed, I did too. Sigh . . . 

It duz make for a cute double selfie though!
