Thursday night 11 PM. I think the storm has passed us.
8 AM Friday. It is raining but I see no signs of ice. Prediction is freezing drizzle this aft. I think I will stay out of the car. Back to bed.
11 AM Got up. We are having a hiatus between rains. So I will dress and we will walk around the block.
Twice I heard the emergency vehicles go screaming down the street.
We took our walk just in time. It is beginning to sprinkle. The wind chill was fierce. I need to walk the dogs more often. Talk about resistance training. The dogs came home and chased each other around the house at 25 mph. I mean literally.
Blitzkrieg's Tale
Mom took us across the street to a big field. Lots of new smells. had a ball.
Lady Xica's Tale
I am glad Mom did not let go of the leash. That horrible Blitzkrieg runs off and Blitzkrieg is his name. He runs down by the creek and gets caught on the branches.
One day I expect to meet a feral hog or a bobcat or a coyote down by the creek.
Martha and I had our more than hour long chat on cell phone as she drives up from Laredo. Jake and Joanna are moving in together Feb 1.
3 PM I feel so cozy and warm inside. Rain has stopped.
4:30PM Feeling cozy and warm altho I think temp is dropping. Temp is 32 degrees with wind chill of 18. Going down to mid-twenties. There will be ice on the roads where puddles stand.
Took a nap for two hours. Evening draws on.

Cold this morning. Not Michigan cold. Texas cold. I ran (tottered) over to mail a letter at club house. I plan to sew this morning until time to go to dog park. After dog park I am always so exhausted.
Lady Chica is lying around eating cardboard. Paper and cardboard are always digested. I wonder what it turns into in the digestive system.
Noon. Temp is 38 but real feel is 24. It wont warm up today. I need a nap.
After my nap and sewing some we went to the park. Blitzn actually played with a girl dog. Her mom said she was a beagle but she didn't look like it. She looked misc. When Blitzen was tired and wouldn't play anymore, Bama's mom took her to the big dog side where she played with a Saint Bernard. She took the Saint Bernard down. Her mom was scared she would scare Blitzen. ha, ha, ha, ha rofl
Nobody played with lady Chica.
Blitzen's Tale
Hey, I met this ol gal named Bama and we played and played. We had a great time. I hope she comes to the park again. No other dogs were there.
Lady Chica's Tale
Tiger ran with me a couple of laps but she aint got no perseverance. After that I had no body to run with. No little dogs and not many big dogs. It was cold. I like it cold.
Came home. After supper I took another nap.
BOOK REVIEW
John Sandford, *Hidden Prey* (2004)
Martha has already read this. So I cant spoil it for her. This turns into a spy story.
Lucas Davenport in this novel works for Minnesota criminal investigation. A Russian sailor is shot on the quay in Duluth. Duluth is a port that connects to the Atlantic.
A Russian policewoman is sent to investigate. Fascinating denouement.

Last night Lady Chica played her little trick on me. She stood at the door wanting to go out. When I went to get the leash she dashed over and picked up a crumb. What a wily little girl.
Baptist Center. Readers ask if we have more business these days. Our church is in the inner city and our people were already on the bottom. Lots of people come from Mental Health Day Care, So our population just continues. We can only serve our zip code in the food pantry.
Came home and slept the afternoon away.
Lea is down with a virus. She's been to the dr and it is not the flu. We went to the dog park as the sun had gone down. Chance and Buddy were there to run with my dogs. There was a sort of aggressive Akita but my dogs handled themselves well. LC wanted to play with him.
Lady Chica's Tale
Chance and Buddy and a lot of other dogs were running. Chance was running so fast that Buddy got in her way and she went to jump over Buddy and landed on his back. Wow.
Blitzen's Tale
Did a lot of running with a pack of those big busters. There was a big old St Bernard who got in everybody's way. He did't run, just got in the way.
BOOK REVIEW
John Sanford, *Wicked Prey*
Luke Davenport police procedural. Story is set in August 2008 when the Republican convention was in town. A gang of cut throats is robbing people who are there with illegal campaign contributions.
