106 days

i raked leaves mixed with snow last saturday. of course, since the weather turned to crap so fast, there was no where to put the leaves so i piled them up in the corner of the backyard.

i also removed the leaf catching screens from the ponds and installed the bubbler in one pond. as an experiment, and hopefully without casualties, left filter/fountain going in the deep pond. the fish did follow me around the pond probably hoping for some food. i guess they're not supposed to be fed in the winter--something about too much body fat or something can kill them. i once killed a mouse with kindness by feeding it to death. we'll see.

maybe january through april will be mild.

Is that mouse still in your freezer? I told my mom that story...the only part she reacted to was the freezer part...

PS: I had a very life-like dream last night about a fellow Uglycousin. I can't look him in the eyes right now, the dream was that life-like. The weird thing is his lips were pierced....three times. Wonder what that means? It wasn't you or UglyScott...

and the answer to your question is yes. hey, at least this makes me unique.
