My legs tingle...

... because the dog wanted a walk and it's still really cold outside. Not -30c like it was earlier this week, but still cold.

Keira loves snow, every dog loves snow, but Keira absolutely loves snow. She is much more of a winter dog then a summer dog, she can hardly wait to just pounce on fresh snow. And I think she's part husky, because darnit she didn't want to go the way I was going, she wanted to pounce in that fresh unadulterated snow! And pounce she did, she was bouncing pretty much straight up and down all over. If she could've, she would've done cart wheels. Not only does she love the snow, she loves burying her nose in the snow, so that when she comes home she has all sorts of little ice crystals around her muzzle. And I have legs that tingle because it's really cold.

But it's good, exams are done, school is done for the semester, and now I just have Christmas to prepare for. It's good. Still lots to do and consider (even though school is done) but it's good to just have those things to think about and not worry about anything else.

I can see her being a jack-in-the-box enjoying every minute of finally getting out in that snow before anyone else does! What a dog you have! Enjoy her!
