It's that time of year when we tend to act on our better traits--kindness, charity, love, sharing and our relationship with Deity to name a few. The Christmas season is such a wonderful time because of the things that Providence has done for us. Here at the Swetthaus we extend our warmest wishes.
It's also a great season for renewal. Even though the bird hunting screeched to a halt, we're holding out hope for at least another day or two before the New Year Holiday. New Year's Day gives us a benchmark to begin again. So, rather than feeling down about January, we're upbeat.

K-Lee and I are already plowing snow together. She has a cute little habit: When we are plowing and pushing snow into the banking, she leans into me and puts her head firmly on my shoulder/chest area. She braces her feet on the seat and leans right into me. I find that rather nice.
See that grassy area in the field? It isn't a landing strip. It's a section we've plowed in order to have an area for exercise and training.-- and avoid having to constantly struggle through knee-deep snow.

We still work on fetch, come, sit, down, whoa, heel, walking at heel, hold and anything else that comes to mind--though at 16 degrees F, the sessions are shorter. This morning before going outside, she fetched my socks which had fallen to the floor. Cool! Now I have an excuse for being a 'slob'. I'll just call it "training"!
Looking forward to what we can 'chronicle' in 2014, we send our best holiday wishes as we settle in for a long winter's nap!
