Crazy snow storm with high winds

I was having a pretty good sleep til 3 am when a huge snow storm blew in. Yes it was windier then yesterday. For the next few hours I tossed and turned and tried to sleep but the winds howled and the trim on the barbeque deck thumped. H needed out at 5 am but hustled right back in her kennel after doing her business. Lexi's surgery is today; I worried about K driving out in this weather. She text before 7 saying they were going to drive slower and careful. The winds are 92 km/hr here with visibility to the paddock then complete white out.

I got up at 7 feeding H early. The whiteout stretched to trees now off and on but by 8 they arrived safely at the vet clinic. Lexi was taken in to get rid of this excruciatingly painful eye, good riddance. Kaylin, Devon and Theo arrived no long after for a cup of fresh coffee I made and some toast. I woke Shaina who joined us too. K works later today so I will pickup Lex and keep for the night. They loaded up and bucked the wind home around 9. It started to clear snow wise but he high winds remained. 

S was off to do her busy check in day. I posted my paint giveaway winner and got working on the blog. Oddly the sun came out which was so crazy to watch with the trees bent over in the wind. Next up was gluing jute on the vases. Once complete all were staged and photographed.







Shaina and I ate a bowl of soup for lunch then she was back to work and I the computer. At 2 we loaded up and headed to town. I dropped her at the gym then grabbed groceries for supper and a turkey for Easter. Next I swung thru Tims to get us a tea then onto the flower shop to choose flowers from Grama and Papa. For Kaylin's new business I chose a money plant to bring good luck, a colorful kalanchoe and double tulips for new beginnings for her and Lexi. 

For part of our Easter flowers I chose double tulips and will get more in the future, THANK YOU!!!

Then I was off to pick up the little miss Lexi. The vet tech said she did great and she was ready to go. We picked up Shaina and back to the ranch before 4. 

Look at this little trooper! note it is a mirror 


Britt and Cooper were out not long after and stayed to fed her horse, take a nap and join us for supper. Shaina got back to her work, I did some work, prepped dogs food (Lexi with her meds) and made us a tasty turkey taco salad for supper.


After supper S was back to her day, B stayed for a bit then was off at 7. I took Lexi - who we are supervising so she doesnt have to wear cone all the time down to sit with Shaina while I went out to check on the cats who were sequestered indoors today due to the crazy wind. They were happy to see me and soft/dry foods. The wind was still blowing but downgraded from the near 100 km/hr to a solid bluster with bite.

Inside I added Outlander to my computer work of blog and tutorials. Lexi was brought up to have cone put on, no scratching on our watch. I had her on my lap typing then moved her to my bed as it was getting dark for a good rest. I headed in to join her after 9 watching some Outlander and a short Facetime with Kaylin. I gave Lexi her meds around 11, Sheldon rolled in after 11.
