happy little trees

A month from today is the first day of spring. I am so tired of the cold, snow and ice. Today at work I was carrying a large bucket of water in one hand and two bowls of fox food in the other. I was walking downhill and hit a patch of snow-covered ice. Next thing I knew I was on my butt with my feet above my head. My only thought was that I just spilled about 3 gallons of water and that it was 10 degrees and windy. I had to MOVE out of that water! Fortunately, I only got the bottom of one pant leg wet. I spilled the fox diets all over and had to remake them. Grrrrrr. It was a pretty spectacular wipeout. Nobody saw it :) I hate winter.
