It is supposed to be sunny and in the mid 60's today. That's snow melting weather for sure. There are still big piles of snow in places (like under our kitchen window for one) but will Mom see any snow when the sun comes out later?
Wow! A lot of the snow is GONE... but not quite!
Mom and I can both see a big pile of snow in the neighbor's yard across the street.
And there is still snow in our front yard. When will the snow melt? Dunno, but here is a snow update for the snow you can't see from our front room.
This snow is on the South side of the house, outside Mom's sewing studio. As you can see, there is a lot of it.
This is the view out back. This faces West.
This pile of snow is under Mom's bedroom window. Mom will plant a special "shade garden" here later and she is furry excited about it. This wall faces North.
This pile of snow is under the kitchen window. You can see the snow near the carport, and across the street, our neighbor's pile of snow, and you get a view of the new thing.
So what was the big thing Mom bought yesterday?
Yup, it's a new metal masheen. Mom said it took longer to buy the metal masheen than it did to buy the house we live in.
Mom has been raving all about it. She says the seats are heated so her tushie will be warm in the winter. I suppose that is nice. She says she can open the door if it is locked and the key is in her pocket! (That's a blatant lie. I know there is no such thing as magic.) She says there is a camera in the back so she can make sure the masheen does not run into anything when it backs up. (I guess it isn't as flexible as I am. I just turn around and look.) Mom says the seats are leather and it has a sunroof. (yawn) Mom also says it has that "new car smell."
I bet it doesn't smell as good as Beef.

The Incredibly Unlucky Metal Masheen
Mom was driving home from day hunting when she heard a terrible CRACK and something banged on her (brand new) metal masheen. She was in traffic (whatever that is) so she couldn't do much but keep going. The sun was in her eyes, so she had to be very careful. By the time she got home, everything looked normal.
But the next day she got in it and saw a crack in the windshield. She missed it the day before because the visor was down. So she called the insurance guys and they have to replace the windshield. This is not as bad as it sounds because Mom has something called "comprehensive" which means she does not have to spend any green papers to fix it. In fact, they will come to her day hunting place and fix it while Mom is hunting bits and bytes.
Mom is trying to think of this as merely "amusing" but the fact is, she's had two incredibly unlucky things happen to this new metal masheen. The old one she traded in had nothing wrong with it and never gave her any trouble at all.
Hmmmm....

Silver Sylvie Saturday
Mom went out shopping yesterday and came home with this. It looks a lot like the old metal machine, but it is different. This one has built-in GPS and blue teeth!!! Mom has already given it a name. She says the name is French, sophisticated and female. The name is Sylvie.
Happy Weekend!
Happy Weekend!

The Metal Masheen
Dear Megan,
Mom -really- loves her new metal masheen.
She likes that it is quiet, that the lights turn on by themselves when it gets dark, and she really likes that it doesn't eat a lot of gas. Whenever she gets in, she usually opens the sunroof, as you can see.
Yup, the sunroof is open. (Mom forgot to close it!) And yup, that is frost. Which means the temperature went down to freezing last night.
Don't think she'll make that mistake again!

World Cat Day
Woo hoo! It's World Cat Day!
I don't care if Mom cleaned up the entire sewing studio and cleared off the table, and was getting ready to work. If I want to nap there, I'll nap there.
I mean, like, seriously. Whose house is this anyway? I thought every day was a Cat Day.
Mom's just bummed because her metal masheen had to spend the day in the metal masheen hospital because the injin light came on while she was driving to her day hunting gig, and it cost more green papers.
