Princesse de Glace

What a busy weekend! Scratch that. It's been a string of busy weeks for me. Not
that I mind; when you finally get a chance to put on those comfy pj's, curl up on the
couch with the animals and a blanket, and just relax, that moment is most cherished
after a long day! You can bet that will be me tonight. Friday was Paul's birthday, the
day of the dog park drama, so we went to his 'rents for his birthday dinner. Saturday
I worked and went to eat at the Works for Paul's birthday (one of his favourite
restaurants - a good ol' burger place) and then we out afterwards with friends. 
Today, well, Sunday is a day to tackle that to-do list isn't it? Kobe cut his paw
really badly at the park today, too. Tell tale sign: the snow was red. It happens
every year. We've tried various types of boots, but they never work. The next pair
we're looking at are over $50! For dog boots - that be crazy! Anything for that pup!
I wasn't quite ready to put away my orange things, but since the snow has fallen
I feel like wrapping myself in clothes that channel a winter wonderland theme.
Greys, blues, whites. Silver jewelry and pearls. The fair isle print reigns when it
comes to winter prints, too. I mean, you just look at it and you think winter. I'm
 usually not a fan of hoodies, but when I carefully unwrapped the tissue paper and
discovered this sweater I fell in love with the print. It's so warm and soft too - just
 what you need when it's chilly! I feel I have a new outlook on winter this year. No
more complaining of the cold. Rather, I shall embrace it. I already can't wait to go
snowshoeing, we just need a few more snowfalls. I usually go with a friend, but I
think I'll drag Paul along this year. See, winter has its moments! Ta-ta for now.
