What's wrong Northern?

[Northern Rose]

I have shoveled snow twice today and it is still coming down, baked oatmeal raisin cookies and have cinnamon buns proofing right now and still have 4 loads of laundry to so.  I want this winter nonsense to go away so I an srt my plants for my garden already   

What is really irritating me is that TSN keeps cutting away from classic canadian curling open finals and the canadian juniors curling to update other sports

  The oatmeal raisin cookies and cinnamon buns sound good, the shoveling doesn't.

Riley this morning was in hunt mode in the snow.  You could tell he was hearing something has his head would slowly go to the side and he was standing still.  Then he pounced and stuck her head into the snow up to his neck.  Head comes out and in his mouth is a mouse that is still squirming.  I was watching him from the kitchen and opened the window and called his name.  He looks at me and will not let go of the squirming mouse.  I told him if I had to come out to open his jaw he was in deep trouble.  He finally drops the mouse which takes off.  He has been mad at me all day.

  Cinnamon buns and cookies!!! I'm sorry you are having such a lousy day and horrible winter. I wouldn't last a minute up there.

I hate it when you are trying to watch a sporting event and they break in for other sports that don't really mean anything at all (like when they break in on figure skating to tell you who won snowboarding in Timbuktu) 

I hope your curling teams do well though.

Oh I don't know what I would do if Josef ever caught a mouse. Poor Riley, he just wanted to play with the mouse.

GAG!! Rachael Flatt is skating her short program. Poor girl fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

    I have never heard that expression before, but can assure you I will be using it.           Riley is a little hunter also, Zoe caught a mouse one day, and she dropped it, because I screamed so loud, I thought she just had a lizard

  For anyone interested, here is a story on the US Figure Skating website about our adult skating club I skate with. I just found out we made the website.

No other sport can you yell at the tv to sweep and hurry 

I hope our curling teams kicks ice at the olympics!  and if we don't then I hope Scotland wins.  The chinese have been focusing on curling and have some good teams now as well but I am not cheering for them.  We need a Tonya Harding in curling to bring some spice to the sport for the networks to cover it better    A good old fashion shin whacking chase across the sheet of ice would have no commercials by TSN

The whole saying is she wasn't beat with the ugly stick, she fell out of the ugly tree   

I would die if he tried to get a mouse

  Tonya Harding of curling. That would be fantastic, broom to the shin or rock dropped on a foot would make headlines!!

I bet curling gets more exposure during these Olympics than usual. I love curling.

He leaves their little bodies lined up by the balcony door if I don't yell at him to drop them.  He caught a baby squirrel last year and now hunts them as well.  I had to pry his jaw open to let the squirrel go.  He also caught a magpie once.  Now that was messy!  Looked like I had a bird plucking contest in the yard.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Vernon Davis is headed to his first Pro Bowl and his first Olympics, too.

 
The star San Francisco 49ers tight end will be an honorary captain for the U.S. men's curling team next month at the Vancouver Olympics. The opportunity came about after Davis gave curling a try in November and loved it.
 
"I'm excited for the opportunity. It's quite an honor," Davis said Thursday. "I look forward to going to the Olympics and being an honorary captain. And I look forward to learning more and meeting those guys and finding out what their practice is like."
 
Davis, who last Sunday tied Antonio Gates' NFL record for touchdowns by a tight end with 13, shot several curling public service announcements this week at 49ers team headquarters and with the San Francisco Bay Area Curling Club at the San Jose Sharks' practice ice.
 
"I got a chance to really show my personality, and they let me do what I wanted at the end. I had a blast with it," Davis said.
 
Those PSAs will be used at curling clubs around the country to help promote the sport's growth.
 
Canada boasts about a million curlers, to only around 15,000 in the United States -- mostly in the Midwest. The number of club curlers around the U.S. has grown significantly since the 2006 Turin Olympics, and the hope is there will be another boom after these Winter Olympics.
 
"We're definitely honored to have someone of his talent stepping out of his normal space on the football field to help support the sport of curling," Rick Patzke, USA Curling's chief operating officer, said in a phone interview Thursday.
 
"Everything I'm reading, his talent on the field speaks for itself, but it's inspiring to see what he's doing outside of football, giving back in all the causes he's supporting -- including curling."
 
The target dates for Davis to be in Vancouver are Feb. 19-21.
 
As part of his gig, Davis will meet the team and experience life in the Olympic Village, attend a match in Vancouver to support the Americans, get to enjoy a VIP curling experience at the Vancouver Curling Club and receive a one-day pass to the U.S. Olympic Committee's USA House.
 
The 25-year-old Davis finished his fourth NFL season with career highs of 78 catches and 965 yards. He will start for the NFC team in the Pro Bowl on Jan. 31 in Miami -- on his 26th birthday.
 
His Olympic experience will just be another highlight from a very special year for Davis. He's insisted all along he only needed opportunities to become a big-time player.
 
"It's been quite a run," he said. "I'm not surprised. This is what I expected. Sometimes to get to a certain place, it takes time. That's been my case. But at the same time I'm very happy about the opportunities."
 
This is a first for the curling team to carry an honorary captain, though the curlers have partnered with the Green Bay Packers on projects in the past.
 
"It's a great opportunity for the sport to have a Pro Bowl-type athlete interested in our sport," U.S. coach Phill Drobnick said. "We're really excited to interact with someone who has worked so hard to raise his level of play in his sport and become undoubtedly one of the best tight ends in the NFL. This is definitely something great for the sport of curling, and the team looks forward to seeing him in Vancouver."
 
U.S. skip, or captain, John Shuster is headed back to the Olympics after capturing a bronze medal at the 2006 Turin Games -- the first ever American medal in the sport and first in a major men's competition since 1978.

  how horrible. My other blue heeler Puddles would catch Mockingbirds in flight and cats if they got in the yards. Thank God I had a husband at the time that would deal with the aftermath. (the only thing he was good for)

Although Josef and my other dogs drug a coyote carcass out of the woods and set it on the deck when I lived in the country. that was disgusting.
