Halfway through winter

We are halfway through Winter now. The shortest day of the year has been and gone and soon it will be time for Spring come September. We are waiting for nicer weather so we can get started on building the outside deck, it will be good to sit out there in Summer with a cold drink or 2.

 


Last week we had this pup turn up on our doorstep. After driving around at different houses to check if neighbours owned her, stopping into the local Vets we ended up dropping her off at the council offices. Later on the owners picked her up, turned out she had escaped her backyard. She sure was a handful, I had forgotten what puppies are like. 

Linking up with Blue Monday and Mosaic Monday.

Always nice to look out for something in the future.

It is really still not palatable to get outdoor. Travelling in the wet outback is even worse here. Cute dog there.

The sun is starting to move back into our kitchen in the mornings so I know that spring won't be far away :)

Glad the dog finally got back to his home. The deck will be nice when summer arrives.

Glad you did right with the pup. He's a clever looking dog. Glad too our summer is half over, I remarked that on the 17th. I sneaked out and got the paper while it's still dark, will snooze now if I can. Sitting on the edge of the bed to write, glad I did, I found where Blue Monday went, I may rejoin.
