Snowstorms and Parades and the Flu! Oh, My!

Well, a couple of nights ago, we got a whopper of a snowstorm. The weather service said our town received 8.2 inches of snow. It didn’t really seem like that much, but what we got was more than we had all last year! It was also Dodger’s first snow. He asked to go outside, then looked at me as if to ask, “What’d you do?” Bless his heart. It didn’t take long for Little Bit to get too cold. DH said if Dodger stayed out there long enough, we’d not have to have him fixed because his little bits would freeze off. Bad Daddy! But it was funny. His first step out, the look on his face was priceless. His expression let me know he thought the snow was all my fault. But I can tell Dodger likes the little parka I got for him! And he looks sooo adorwable!

 

 

Last night, our PT Cruiser club participated in the Christmas Light Parade.  As you’ve no doubtedly figured out, this is an annual event where different business and organizations decorate an entry and toodle down our main street, ending in the lighting of the community Christmas tree and the arrival of Santa Claus.  It was great fun, and though the temps were still frigid, there were many who braved the night air and came out for the fun! Even my DH, who was sick, sick sick.  He is such a trooper!  He dolled up Phantom Cruiser (our Cruiser is themed around Phantom of the Opera) and I dolled up Texas Red as our other members did the same.  DH  cranked up the Trans-Siberian Orchestra music as  we entered our place in line, and off we went!   And as soon as  it was over, DH  vroomed toward home and his easy chair while I went to get him some soup and sundries from the grocery store.  Bless his heart, he was so hard asleep when I got home, he must have been really bad off.  And my Sis-in-Law and my brother were both ill this week too.  I’m dodging those flu germs as best I can!
