And it's a damp one. It has been misting rain this morning. So I might not get the tarp up today. I will find something to do either way. But this warmer weather has been making me want to be outside more.
Hubby is off doing his running and the dogs are snoozing so it's peaceful right now. Patch border collie was very wound up when she came in. We played tug of war for a few minutes. She was putting all her weight into it today and growling. 
. I still won in the end.
Hope you have a good day.

Just misting here in northern Alabama. Same thing at home, according to the weathermen.
I’ve made it to Huntsville, Alabama.

We just got home from the grocery store. I bought another huge all-meat pizza and cooked it. I'm having a slice of it for breakfast. 
It's bright and sunny here this morning. Our temp is already 60F and should reach 72F by noon. (It's 11 am now.)

I can't believe it; but we still have s**w on the ground. The ice is gone though. I'm glad Patch border collie felt like playing.

My dog growls a lot also when we play tug, but I also always win.

Rain here this morning and it just looks miserable outside. At least the rain will wash away more of that white stuff.
I agree that I would love to spend more time outside. I can't wait for a beautiful day and I can sit outside and enjoy my morning coffee.
Hope your day goes well

I have owned two Border Collies in the past. They were extremely energetic, but such good dogs and so loving. Both were rescues, and once again, the people who had owned them failed to take into account that these dogs are herders--and they didn't like their small children being herded. It's just what they do, what they were bred for. They are good dogs, but they need some space.
