A Skulk

I may be a Vixen, but I'm not in a skulk (or a leash.... oh, that's kinky)!  ha ha ha
The wonderful world of Google says a group of foxes is a skulk or a leash.  AJ and I were talking of foxes because we have many running around the Cove here this fall/winter.  Actually lately I haven't seen any - which apparently works for me and Jax!!

There are fox tales going around.  AJ came back from a meeting where a woman was saying her granddaughter (about 4-6 yrs) was at the front door screaming because a fox was at the door.  The woman went to the door, saw the fox going around the house, she went to the back patio door, saw the fox, and it went to the front door again!  It wanted to get in.

Other one, my friend Joanne was walking Teddy and Chole (both Havanese and Teddy is half brother with my Jax).  She turned around and the fox was following her and the little dogs.  She stamped her foot, tossed a stick, it still wouldn't back off.  Then a person in her car came up and honked the car horn until it left - Joanne said she was almost home, and the car woman followed her to make sure they got home safely.

So I'm now walking, and taking Jax out carrying an air horn.  I hope to never run into a fox!  Thing is, there was a fox coming around our bird feeder for quite a few weeks.  I even was out there one day with Jax when it sat and looked at us.  I didn't think much of it as Jax was on the deck locked safely there with me.  The one neighbour has a big boxer - rarely out and now a new neighbour moved in on the other side of us...with a big golden lab.  So Jax is between two big dogs.  I wonder if that's helping - haven't seen the fox since the new neighbour moved in. Or they are hibernating.

Yesterday I started back on the eggs.  Made up pancakes, waffles, muffins to freeze.  Had grill cheese for dinner (waffles with cheese in the middle)  added lettuce and ketchup in it too.  Breakfast was an omelette, and  Lunch was a grill cheese too.

Today:
Breakfast - shake with hemp seeds
Lunch - cabbage salad and chicken and egg muffin
Dinner - salmon, green beans, broccolinie..... and just wanted something - jello.

Tea was in all that too.

Tomorrow will have more eggs again.  Not doing the egg fast per sec, more increasing the eggs.

Snow has started tonight.  There's a snow storm coming tonight / tomorrow.  I hope it will be cleared by Saturday morning as we plan to see my mother.
