Icicles at sunset

The morning hadn't started well.  Poor Whip had an accident in the night and was feeling bad about it.  I let her into the house proper while I cleaned up the foyer.  The cats also hadn't been well during the night having tossed their cookies twice.  Whip decided to help me out by cleaning up that herself.  (ugh!)  I put Whip's bedding in the washing machine.   After it was washed and dried I tried to refit it around the batting but I stuffed the bottom layer in the wrong direction.  (At least that's my guess.)  There is a bulge in the middle of the bed now.  Pretty sure Whip can work it back down to her liking.  She and I walked out to the garbage can at the end of the drive to leave a bag of the stuff I'd cleaned up.  The drive is badly drifted.  Like I said I don't need to go anywhere this weekend but I'd promised Brother Russell to take him to a doc's appointment early on Monday. Didn't want to try driving out over these snow drifts.   Fortunately, even though we hadn't had more snow, Mr. Quinn (a/k/a the plow guy) came through around 10 a.m. again and cleaned out the drive.  He must have realized there would be drifting after those winds yesterday.  The temps are now below zero and the snow has created a crust on top.  That will stop the drifting no matter how hard the winds blow.
