Brrrrrrrr!!

It’s is cold outside! It’s 10:10pm on Sunday night right now and it’s 14 degrees outside! We just finished watching the Broncos loose to the dreaded Raiders… Uugh! Esten came over with his mom and dad, and we all watched the game in high definition in our Theater. But what a sad ending it was!

Well, I worked yesterday at the store on Uintah (Wag N Wash). Man, did I ever have fun! It wasn’t as busy as they were hoping it would be, but we had washes come in and out all day. I worked from open to close (10am-5pm). I had fun with all the different dogs. And we get to carry treat pouches to give treats out to puppies. It’s great!! I got today off because the new store isn’t ready and they have nothing for us new people to do. They offered us hours at the other store, but since I don’t need the hours, I opted for a day off, which worked out really well.

We were planning on picking up Adam, our cadet, at the airport around noon. We were surprised by a phone call mid morning from our newest cadet, Chris, asking if he could come over for the afternoon and meet us before he had to be back at the Academy. So, Brian went to pick him up while I went and got Adam from the airport.

Right about 10:30am the snow started to fly. We had gotten only a dusting overnight, and the forecast was for a lot of snow today. On my way to the airport the roads were still pretty clear, but it was snowing pretty hard. On the way back, just about 20 minutes later, the roads were starting to get slick and snow covered. It’s pretty much been snowing ever since. It’s supposed to snow through the night, but we are only supposed to get 2-4 inches.

All three cadets spent the day in the basement watching TV. After about an hour of them all being down there, I mentioned to Brian that it sure was quiet down there. Usually we can at least hear a movie or video game going. Brian went down to check on them, they were all sacked out. About 2 hours later, I went and checked on them and they were still all asleep. We woke them up about 4pm for dinner. About 5pm Brian took them back to the Academy so he could be home before the game started.

Well, back to my regular job tomorrow I guess. No dogs there, though. :( But hopefully the new store will be open by next weekend and I can work there. They have me scheduled for every weekend between now and Christmas. And they are working with my schedule for Holiday Parties. The weekends are the busiest time, so I am looking forward to it!
