The Dawn of a New Day

Another day is about to dawn here in GH.  I'm up early today because I have to take Sugar to see her new doctor at 9:00 AM.  Mary said it could wait until the doctor came back to town late next week, but anyone who knows me knows that I treat Sugar like a regular member of the family.  Like most of us, she doesn't like going to the doctor, but I always tell her it is for her own good.  I doubt that she believes me.  Time for her annual shots, a check of her weight, and a regular checkup.  She also needs a pedicure and to have her prescriptions refilled.  There goes another two hundred.  Oh well. I think I should get her a healthcare plan too.  I wonder if the Republicans would object.  Snow has been basically nonexistent her in western Michigan.  A storm is expected tomorrow afternoon that will likely give us less than one inch of accumulation.  Today, the high is expected to approach 50 degrees.  Go figure, but I know that everyone is having a sale on snow blowers.  I see guys driving around with snowplows hanging off both ends of their trucks.  What's that old saying, nowhere to go, and lots of time to get there.  The cook at Tip -a- Few Tavern at Franklin and the River was talking earlier in the fall about getting his truck ready for the snow season.  Looks like it didn't need to be rush job.  I got to use my new snow blower once so far.  I doubt that this will be a lasting condition, but I do know that people here are saying this is the least snow since 2009.  It turned out to be a righteous decision to stay in town this winter.  Oh well, time to get ready to go.  Later.
