Snowed In

1/17/2022

By Gentle Mouse, Weather Watcher and Cheeky Mischief.

Well, dear friends.

Here I am all snuggled in my condo, tuque on and mittens at paw. Note my own personal heaters - one beside me on the ledge and the other under my laptop so it doesn't freeze up on me. *giggles*

We thought the cold a few weeks ago was bad. Now it's cold, snow blizzardy AND we can't get rid of Grammy for the day. Ooops! Scratch that. We are stuck with Grammy at home! Oh no! That sounds bad too.

Okay, let's try this one. Today is a day where Grammy must stay home and we will all cuddle up together with blankets and pillows and just snuggle and nap in toasty bliss. Yes, that sounds better.   We might even let Grammy knit between naps.

Oh GRAMMYYYYYYYYYYYY! Put on a fresh pot of coffee for yourself, hot apple cider for us and bring kitty treats. Sweetie and I are piling up the blankets on the sofa while Rondo and Etude pile up the extra pillows from the bedroom. We should all fit, don't you think? We promise to shift over for you. MORE PILLOWS, BOYS!!!

Oh my Goodness, Mousie.
I have had need to gag and blindfold BPC. I think the dear boy has gone quite 'tadoodle'.
He took one look at the snowscape in your quite incredible pics before his eyes glazed over and he started babbling something which sounded vaguely like 'Urban Alps' !
He then commenced some weird diatribe about tea tray snowboards which involved the most audaciously risky act of launching off the balcony in the general direction of the next one down on the adjoining building and so on . . . Until ground level was reached😲 . . .all of this whilst cling-wrapped to the same said tea tray. He became quite animated and overwhelmed with excitement at the very idea !
Well, I just had to bring him to his senses. So, after tapping his bottom firmly with a tea tray, he is now himself cling-wrapped to it and fastened firmly to the bedpost in mummies room. . .
Sometimes, dear gentle Mouse, his behaviour is so over- enthusiastic for adventure, that The story of the Wind in the Willows springs to mind !
Anyway, after having put the wind up my willows, he is now subdued and you are all safe.
Do enjoy the warmth and comfort dearest ones. . . .I may release him come Spring when adventure will seem, ( or hopefully be) less reckless.
Much love from all in the Shirelands ❤

PSS - you are so wise and quick acting. My goodness. The thought of launching off the balcony on a teatray - cling-wrapped or not seems quite crazy-wild. I'm so pleased you were able to restrain him. Do feed him though and leash him for his walkies. We don't want the old fellow wasting away from lack of nourishment... or weeing on the bedroom floor. When spring comes send him over and the boys will take him for an adventure on their turbocharged climate controlled hoverboards. We'll make sure they take him outside the city. Last time they did a city tour the Canadian Air Force sent out their surveillance jets to identify the UFOs. We must get Grammy to read the Wind in the Willows to us. Our education has been quite neglected. Shameful, isn't it! Love in sledfuls from the land of the Polar Bear, Snowshoe Hare and Arctic Fox.

I sure do hope you're all out from underneath all that snow by now. We were snowed in for a bit, too. Then we FINALLY got out. Then it snowed. Then there was some meltin' goin' on. And today... Well today it's snowin' again. MOUSES!

Yes, we are pretty much finished with snow. Oh, there are a few piles of it near curbs and residual bits on building rooftops but the balcony is clear and dry. Considering we are only a few weeks away from spring I should hope that's the end of the white stuff. Hope yours clears soon too.
