So my buddy Loup Graham had this idea of singing winter songs to think of snow and forget about all this heat. We decided to each write a poem to a Christmas song. You can see Loup’s at his blog: loupslifelessons.blogspot.com and decide which you like best. Loup says his is better, but I know mine is *snicker*.

I tell ya though, this really did help me think cooler! I remembered all the fun we had last winter running around in the snow and ice. I would bound out the door and Jenny would chase me around and around the yard. It was great! Then I’d lie in the snow like in my picture. Ah, the good old days!
.
So read our poems and see if it doesn’t get you to thinking about cooler days. I’m counting the hours until those days are back!

I’m dreaming of a snow-covered landscape
Just like last winter’s don’t ya know,
when it didn’t stop snowing,
No grass was showing,
The ground was frozen to the core.
I’m dreaming of rolling in snowbanks
and licking ice from off the deck.
Oh to run and play and frolic
On a day that’s not hotter than heck!

Can I have snow and you have air conditioning?
Ahhhhh, I feel so much cooler already. Cute one, Rumps. I like it. Can’t wait to see what Loup has to say.
He’s probably sitting by the pool sipping on a drink with a little umbrella stuck inside….*snicker*
It seems to be hot everywhere these days! We thought you might like to watch a video about a hot dog (pun!) and it could give you ideas. http://cuteoverload.com/2011/07/25/not-such-a-hot-idea/
It probably works better if the water stays in the pool though.
Love, RainbowCats
Hi Rumpy! Gus has returned with his indoor pool idea! We wonder if his mom made him pull it back outside!? http://cuteoverload.com/2011/07/25/not-such-a-hot-idea/
Your person doesn’t need to worry about her phone app. At least she has one. Our people use GeezerPhones, but only for texting. Whatever that is.

Oh, yes, we are wooing and singing together right now in the hopes of being cooler!!! Cute post!!! Stay cool! PS – LOVE your background pic!
Oh Dog! Thanks!!!
