snowmageddon 2024


That's enough, already.  It's enough!


I said, IT'S ENOUGH.


MOUSES!


So in case you haven't heard, and I'm sure there are some peeps out there who haven't, my fair province of Nova Scotia has had a wee bit of snow.


Wee?  Bit?  What am I sayin'?  It was more like a ....    A...  Well, more like umm...


Oh I don't know what it was more like, but there's one thing I absolutely DO know:


WE HAVE MOST DEFINITELY HAD ENOUGH.


MOUSES!


Yup, the snow started sometime Friday.  On Groundhog Day, to be exact.  My guess is that because Shubenacadie Sam didn't see her shadow, therefore predictin' an early spring, Mother Nature decided to give us a big ol' wallopin' of snow whilst she still could.


And she did.


WALLOP.


MOUSES!


Gosh darn it, some parts got a whole winter's worth of snow all in one weekend!


MOUSES!


So anyway...


So anyway, like I was sayin', the snow started sometime Friday and continued on until Saturday.


And then Sunday, too.


And it was still snowin' on Monday, although not nearly as badly.  And actually, some of it was kinda startin' to melt.


Yup, ol' Peepers went out to shovel and came back inside soakin' wet.  Snow had landed on her, and then started to melt.


Gonna have to start callin' her HOT STUFF, I think.


Heeheeheehee...


MOUSES!


Now I'm gonna admit, we didn't get nearly as much snow here at my house as some parts of the province did.  Why, I heard tell of reports of some places gettin' 150cm.  That's almost five feet high!  That's a whole lotta snow, to be sure.


And then when it started to drift...


I don't even wanna THINK about that.


MOUSES!


Saffy Saffron Sassifras INSISTED on goin' out the back door and plowin' through the snow to make his way under the deck.  Thanks-be-to-goodness that was just before Peepers was headin' out to shovel, so she was able to shovel a path for him to get back out.


From under the deck, I mean.


MOUSES!


But the bottom line is, my dear friends...


WE. HAVE. HAD. ENOUGH.


Snow, that is.


More treats and catnip will always be welcomed.  Yup, welcomed with open paws for sure.


MOUSES!

And remember:

IF IN DOUBT,

DON'T. GO. OUT.

Continue to practice SOCIAL DISTANCIN' measures

AND KEEP WASHIN' YOUR PAWS.

MOUSES!

Remember to mask up, too.

  7. Sounds like you need a St Bernard hound with nip brandy barrel around its neck.
    As long as you all stocked up with comestibles and have the wireless to listen to, you'll be fine.
    Toodle pips and purrs
