OT- In the front yard today

We have a couple of feet of water in our front yard and Shorty andthe puppy thought it was great fun to play in it.

We almost had our own little Coppertone moment because the puppy was pulling on Shorty's swim suit.

Z- That's a GREAT pic of Shorty! I watched the weather on GMA this morning and they showed parts of Wisconsin that looked seriously-scary-underwater! I'm so glad y'all are safe!

Thank you. Now I'm grateful for the snow we had this week!!!

I'm also envious of Shorty getting to play in the water! Looks like great fun.

Glad you're ok and haven't floated away.

That's awesome Zebra! When I read your title, I thought you meant 'occupational therapy,' not"off-topic.' Here's why...

This was our 'OT' experience at last weeks baseball practice.

What a cute picture....brings back fond memories of going outside and walking in the puddles and the mud after a rainstorm!

The path of the tornado in Kansas (Wednesday night) was less than a mile north of where I grew up.....it skipped over my mom's parents' hometown & farmstead and all the relatives, and fortunately my brother lives on the opposite side of Manhattan so it missed him.
