MaggieMoose: Spring Lace

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush."


  The pink tulip tree in the yard looks like spring lace. Maggie and I were outside enjoying the warm air, the sun shining and the birds chirping. Daylight savings is taking us some getting use to, but I think Maggie and I are acclimating. We check the weather channel. We want to see if the wintry weather is coming back, because it's so hard to believe it's so nice outside. We can tell there's a seasonal change in the air even if the official Spring day isn't until next week. I thought I'd never shed my heavy coat for our walks. Maybe I can soon? We were admiring the outdoors and then went inside. Maggie brought a little of it with her. Somethings never change, no matter what season.


We are looking forward to warmer days ahead. Until the warm days are really here to stay, I'll slog on out our early morning walks. I with my heavy coat on and Maggie with an extra spring in her step as she sniffs the newly blossomed flowers we pass by.

Window of Weather

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"On cable TV they have a weather channel - 24 hours of weather. We had something like that where I grew up. We called it a window."
Maggie's twig & sunshine

  Rain, rain, rain came down, down, down.... This song is from Winnie the Pooh's Blustery Day. This morning I thought the song was about my neighborhood. I looked outside the window and rain, rain, rain with blustery wind was everywhere. No, I didn't need to turn on the TV's weather channel for today's forecast! Outside was wet as ever. It spoiled my desire to walk in the sunshine with Maggie like we did yesterday. It meant getting the beach towels out to dry Miss Maggie off after our walk. Maggie won't have time to leisurely pick up twigs in the sunshine. The wet ground for her spells "t-r-a-c-k-i-n-g". She'll be sniffing the wet ground thinking she's gone "tracking" somebody's scent again. Pooh's blustery day of pools of water are everywhere. Maybe we'll see Piglet's note in a bottle stating HELP or Pooh in a honey pot go floating by? Yes, the window tells all for our blustery day ahead. Rain, rain, rain came down, down, down... but, with Maggie any day is fun rain or shine!
