We had lots of sun today, but the temperature didn't seem any warmer than yesterday. I let Mickey out of the garage today since it wasn't raining, but he wasn't too happy about the cold temperature, and he went back into the garage after just half an hour outside. He jumped up in his chair, which is nice and warm from the heater, and that's where he spent the rest of the day. Mickey is a Texas cat, and not used to these very un-Texas like temperatures.
I saw a large brown and white rabbit near the gazebo this afternoon..... I think he's making his home right underneath the gazebo, because there's clearly a spot there when he can get under the wood trim. He? She? Whichever.... it was a pretty big rabbit. I got out the binoculars to look more closely without scaring him, and he's a very pretty bunny. I have no idea if there's an entire bunny family under that gazebo, but both Mickey and Gatsby have investigated the ground around that gazebo from time to time, so maybe the cats have noticed a bunny smell, or have seen bunny traffic going back and forth under the wooden base.
I told my husband about the rabbit, and without missing a beat, he asked me "And where do you think that rabbit is having his meals?" The answer..... "IHOP." I should have guessed that.
Still cold outside..... and I'm still not happy with the weather, but there's certainly nothing I can do about that, short of getting on a plane and heading to Key West or somewhere like that. Warmer days are sure to come back, sooner or later..... hopefully sooner. My cousin in Florida called me tonight and said that the temperature in Orlando is 82 degrees. I should tell my husband that it may be time to visit Mickey Mouse and Company again.
But on the bright side..... we spent the day decorating the big Christmas tree in the dining room...... my husband did the lights, I did the ornaments and all the embellishments. Looks beautiful.... Santa and the elves would approve.
