The winter so far in NJ has been a real shoveling challenge. Due to my New Year's and prior resolution and much insight from The Farmer's Almanac I have been gearing up and building muscle to lifts the mounds of snow that have been piling since Christmas!! Hamlet and I have many things in common, besides being skidish, we detest the cold weather. I should have been born in Florida along with him! This is obvious to me because every night he tries to snuggle under my nightshirt for body heat. He is a real warming blanket, until later on in the evening I feel the dead weight of him under my arm. With a simple push, I hear a grunt as if to say "I am comfortable and warm - bug off". Needless to say, for most of the time I win and he finds another body part to snuggle with. His "parnter in crime - Buddy" snuggles all day with him, but, as far as Buddy is concerned snuggling with him at night is off limits. So as I gear up for another winter storm, my two "partners in crime" decide to do whats best - To snooze and snuggle while Mom is outside shoveling!
"Hammy's lesson" - A winter's nap restores the soul and for Mom - her muscles!
