Watching the Snow Fall

~ Watching the Snow Fall ~

When I woke up this morning, I decided to work from home. Why? Today the Denver area is in the middle of a blizzard. As I looked out my bedroom window, I could no longer see the dead grass on the ground, just a fluffy white covering. Why submit myself to the dangers of driving on the icy roads along with hundreds of other drivers when I can work from home?

It was actually peaceful and relaxing watching the snow blow in the wind and fall gracefully to the ground. Everything looks so serene and peaceful with a blanket of freshly fallen snow.

Wrigley, my dog, really enjoyed the snow. I watched him hop through it and play. He was having a ball. I'm not sure if he knew what snow was. I adopted him just over a month ago. He came from a shelter in New Mexico and I have no history on him. What I do know is that both of our lives are better because of it.

At one point he was trying to jump up on the fence. He saw a squirrel in a tree and was trying to get to him! He actually got his hind legs up to the half way post on the fence. (Uh oh...Is the fence tall enough???) He had a blast hopping back and forth and around the yard. And I enjoyed the entertainment he gave me!

Wrigley was tired at the end of a fun filled day of playing in the snow! And I was able to continue working....and watch how peaceful Wrigley looked curled up in a little ball. I think I hit the jackpot when I adopted him. He is a very sweet, gentle and loving dog.

What do you like to do when it snows all day?
