Observations on a snowy afternoon

ksmithA Gaby who is in the process of killing a mouse is a Gaby who will not come when called.
The first thing Gaby does when she goes out in the snow is rub her face in it. She just walks along and plows through the stuff with her nose, sending it into the air. By the time she's made a few passes, her face is covered--she looks like she's wearing a skull-mask. Didn't have the camera on me when I needed it.
I haven't seen Gaby drink water for weeks. Outside, she eats snow. Inside, she chews the snowballs off her coat. Between that and the new diet of wet food, I guess she's sufficiently hydrated.
King has nothing to add, except to remind us all that he is still The King. We've only been inside a few minutes, and he's already snoring. He'll be 9 years old next month.
Just finished shoveling. Wonderful neighbor with snow thrower came by just as I was finishing the snowplow dam and did the top of my Y-shaped drive while I finished off the bottom. I think he saved me a good hour. Must bake cookies.
The thing that hurts is that we are supposed to get lake effect overnight, which means I could be looking at the same mess tomorrow morning. ::spits::
Dinner time. Warmed-up chicken, I think. Salad. Wine.
