Clouds Rain Wind Snow ~ The Bruise ~ Interesting About Lindbergh!

Good 32º cloudy morning

Dreary yesterday. Sun came and went. Rained. Windy. Only another 1/8" in the rain gauge. More predicted.

A little snow on the summit...

Went to get haircut yesterday. Had fun conversations with Leah. Stopped at PO to pick up packages. I ordered something for Leah's birthday a month ago, February 21st, and now they tell me it's not going to arrive until at least Friday! Groan. Never had anything take this long to ship! Going to give them a 'what-to where-for' after the package arrives!

'The Bruise' loves to lay on my desk. Usually off to the side,

but sometimes in the middle of everything. I had my hand resting on the desk and he laid his head on my arm and put his paw also on my hand..... What a love!
