Very cold but no snow

What a chilly morning, the frost was very light early this morning although it was very cold. My paws felt cold and my ears got very cold. It's a problem being a Boxer that the coat is very fine and short but does not offer the protection that some of my long haired canine friends have to keep warm. Just have to sort out some extra cover when I am at home.

A couple of people have emailed at my web site http://www.healthyboxerdog.com/ for the blonde vets blog which has a lot of information about her day to day life as a vet and also some interesting chats she has had so pop over and say hi at http://www.michelleshanson.com/

Well what did you learn yesterday? Only by looking at each day as an opportunity to learn can humans move on and expand their horizons. Regardless of any religious beliefs you are a part of the universe and not an isolated being. Just check on your quantum physics and what that has to say about all your inner structure, it's just energy some may call this our spirit.
But its there and it should be every one's aim to get to find the time to quietly listen to that inner voice that will offer the greatest guidance to what each and every human is here for.

The cold weather is all but stopped any activity in the garden other than tidying and picking up the last of the fallen leaves. I noticed the other day, on my walk with D, that there are daffodils showing full leaves and will, if the frost does not have an affect, soon be showing buds. Some of the hedgerows are starting to produce the beginnings of buds in readiness for Spring.

There have been a number of changes to the car situation in the family in the last few months. The MPV died with a broken cam belt even thought it was not due to be changed and the clutch cable, which had been changed was causing problem. So it went as an exchange for a very old Fiat Punto 55SX, which to the amazement of the boss(he) is a good little runabout. A smaller engine means more economy and less road tax so we will see how it goes. Not so much room for me though. Having said that the back seat it comfortable and there is less vibration than in the MPV on the floor.
This is just one of the families efforts in the present situation to get themselves on a better financial footing for the future. There's still problems with short falls on the endowments to get sorted so I guess I maybe moving in the future. Two of the eldest in the family are spreading there wings, one has already left and the other goes end on the month. Boy will it be a lot quieter around the house.

Have a good day and make the effort to turn it into a learning situation.
