MLK Monday.

Another Monday finds me sipping a cup of coffee, watching a steady, delicate snow cloaking the Thornapple, Pines and ground with a white mantle that makes the world look fresh and new. 

MSNBC's Morning Joe in the background filling the silent void in this house. There was a professor on when I powered it up. Didn't catch his name, but he was talking about the civil rights movement and I'm inspired to learn more about this great man. Will check the online library for biographies later today.

Three loads of laundry done yesterday. Still have floors to mop. 

Am thinking of renting a steam cleaner. This Winter has been pretty mild so far, but that means there is a lot of mud on the trails. Makes a mess of the floors and carpet even though I dry Bandit off when we come inside. He's such a good dog. He walks on the edge of the path in the snow so he doesn't get too dirty. He even goes around puddles without having to be told. His commands are Leave it, go around, cross over (to the other side of street or path), wait for me, up (the hill, into the car), up the stairs, heel, stay, drop it, and NO - which is used sparingly. He fetches his toys and knows the difference in shapes. He has a donut, squeaky snake, squeaky bone, squeaky hedgehog, elephant, frisbee and two different kongs.
