Weekend Photo Fun

Saturday morning we were greeted with that four letter word associated with Winter… SNOW… it didn’t last much past mid afternoon as the sun came out, but nonetheless we had our first SNOW of the season…

With my new company, I’m now working from home!  I went with a glass desk vs the traditional wood desk… Yes, I keep a bottle of Windex close buy..  but tonight Willie, my West Highland Terrier was begging to be let up on my lap.  As he settled in, he noticed the space between my filing cabinet and the desktop.. he wanted on the filing cabinet…

Who am I to argue?  How much clearance do you need to store your Westie?   8 inches seems about right!
