Cold and Afraid

You know spring is near when dead cardinals start showing up in your backyard.

It wasn't there in the morning when I came home from hockey.








I'll give you 1 clue as to the cause of this birds unhappy ending.
He's almost 10.
And his gloves smell like microwave popcorn.

Nah...just kidding he found it when they came home a little after 1pm.
I was hoping some animal would take it away for a snack.  But animals are smart. They don't eat other animals that didn't die from a prey attack.  Because the dead animal could have a disease.

Only humans eat crap food like that.  Because other people only care about making money and given the opportunity to do something like that without getting caught.  They would do it.  Nice !

It was a nice day out.
After coming home from fixing Tresa's godmother's ceiling.
I was hoping to relax.  Instead I was outside in a snowball fight and burying kids in the snow like they were in the Bahamas.






It wasn't my idea.
One kid tried to bury himself then I just helped pile the snow around him.





So Yahvi wanted to know what it's like to get buried in snow too.  Samatva was pretending he was at Club Med.

So we buried her too and waited for Kevin to come around.



Pretty soon this snow will be all gone.  And Spring will be here.
