Ready to do Some Camping Here

I haven't been to Nolin Lake in years - but I remember it's beautiful.  Hopefully we'll get a camping weekend down on the lake this summer.

Someone is Comfy

L.B. likes to huddle in under the covers when it's cold.  Especially if the covers are on your lap and another cover is over him.

Today's Work View

Today the high was about 17 degrees with wind chills around zero.  We keep our house at about 64 degrees.  Which makes the basement about 58 degrees where our office is. My hands kept getting too cold to type so Jason and I decided to work from the laptops upstairs instead.  There we could settle into our comfy recliners with two blankets, our laptops and a hot mug of tea to boot - oh, and this was the general scenery from our stand-point.  I don't think they really understood what we were doing.  LOL!

Loving Pets Bella Canister

This evening as Jason and I were heading out to dinner we noticed a boxed package sitting towards the end of the driveway in the grass.  ( Our driveway is currently an ice rink and on a hill so that's where our packages get left for the time being. ) I couldn't remember ordering anything so opened it on the way to dinner.  Turns out it was a Bella Canister, Merlot color, from Loving Pets.  And I didn't buy it, but here is how I acquired it.

I subscribe to a site / blog called Go Pet Friendly, which is written by a full-time on the road couple, Amy and Rod, and their two fur kids, Ty and Buster, laying out all the pet friendly ( and some not so pet friendly ) places they have visited in the U.S. and Canada to help others traveling with pets to know where and where not to go.  Great site - check it out!  Anyway, they send out monthly newsletters and in each one they usually feature a product of the month where the first so many people to email their address will receive that item, for free!  Apparently I was one of the lucky ones and got my email in on time.  So now, my fur kids have this very cool, very functional Bella treat canister from Loving Pets.  It's a very solid stainless-steal canister with a suction lid to keep the treats inside nice and fresh for your pups and come in three different colors.  And since it has a rubber, no-skid bottom this one might actually end up in our camper for our RV trips.

I have no affiliation with either of these sites, but I wanted to give a shout out and a thank you to both of them for the wonderful information and products they both provide!

This crew is happy!

Snug as a Bug

It's been unseasonably cold here this month and this is pretty much where L.B. stays in the evenings.  Under a fleece blanket either at the end of mine or Jason's recliner chair - making it very difficult to get up and down without disturbing his Chiweenie-ness.  He'll be happy when he can lay out on the 90 degree deck in the sun again.  Until then, he's Mr. Groucho.

Early Birthday Treat

Ahhhh my current favorite craft beer - Stella Artois!  This went along with my birthday lunch at Old Chicago Pizza after going to the boat and RV show to drool over campers with my girlfriends.  Fun, fun day!

Today's Movie Buddy and My Extra Heat Source

Today was a lazy day of movie watching as the snow came on down all day.  Lois Lane kept my feet warm while I wated Parental Guidance and most of Paranormal Activity.  Love lazy days with my pups!
