It's been a cold few days. Tuesday, it snowed. I didn't go out except to walk Sparky. Wednesday, it was 19 degrees but the wind chill made it awful. We got about 1.5 inches of snow. Bethel road was clear but my road is private and they don't do anything about it unless there's at least 4 inches. The cars pack the snow down and it becomes icy and slippery. I walk along the edge where the cars have not driven but poor Sparky runs out onto the ice. He slipped a couple times. One time I heard his head clunk on the ground. He didn't yelp and he seemed to be OK. I wish they would salt or sand. I'm glad I live near the entrance and don't have to drive far on the ice. I went to the church to do some work in the office. It seems to never end. I'm tired of spending so much of my time there.
Yesterday, it was 8 degrees but there was no wind so it wasn't too bad. Sparky seems to love it out in the cold and snow. I got him a new coat for Christmas and I finally found one that fits him. It is a black and white herringbone with a black velvet collar. It doesn't pop off when I tug on his leash. That was a problem with his other coat. The strap around his neck wasn't long enough.
I didn't go out yesterday because after bundling up for the cold a couple time to take Sparky out, I had no desire to go out.
