Looks like after the early morning walk, that I will have to try out the snowshoes. It snowed all night and is still snowing like crazy. Soon the snow will be too deep to get around in. The snowshoes will allow me to at least get down the hill and let Boza think has has walked. I may have to carry him though… 😉
Looks like the next two days is the final gasp of Old Man Winter. And it looks like all the snow in the world has just been dumped on us, well except for what Denver in the USA just got. We got more and then some…
Wind is blowing 10 to 15 kilometers an hour and with it is a wall of snow. Boza looked like a white snow dog when we finally got back and I am sure I looked the same. Snow snow go away and come again some other day…
I felt it coming and last night in a flurry of commotion, I threw Boza in the car and him and I fought our way to the Big Village. It was rough and I was not sure I would make it. I had some medicine/test strips to get and knew that I would not have a chance for a week or so. Sammy the Volga is a trooper and she dug us through the drifts and got us there. I bought more food and got to the pharmacy just before they closed. I was almost out of test strips for my sugar meter and needed them. It actually scared me to run out and I was surprised I had overlooked them the last time, earlier in the week… 🙁
I took Boza in case I was to get stuck. He would be better with me than stuck in the house. We at least could keep each other warm…

Had a rough night and I will make this short today. Maybe later I will write again, but the weather has gotten into my arthritis and made life miserable. So reading a book will be the best thing to do and then try out the snowshoes later. My system is messed up today and that is just part of that roller coaster weather we have here in the winter. Oops, I mean spring, here in Russia. Just can not find spring, for it seems to have run away…

Time to make breakfast to go with my coffee and then read a great Zombie, end of the world, book I found. Oh man it is perfect and great for a day like today…
