Dear Readers,
Yesterday I saw that Olive has a new tunic-length sweater, and I told A.Alpha that I should have one of those, too. It's bloody cold around here. So she took the brown Peace Fleece one and she ripped back the ribbing on the end and started knitting it longer. But she sure is taking a long time to do it. This is me, just patiently waiting.......
Tell her to hurry up, will ya? The weather forecast is for Extra Blustery today!
Shivering in St. Albans,
Mr. Jefferies
Well, Mr Jeffries, if Olive jumped off a bridge, would you jump off too? I think A.Alpha knows what's best for you and she'll get your longer sweater to you as soon as you actually need it. Now be sweet and give her a kiss, then let her get back to her knitting. There's a good boy.

Ah poor Mr. Jeffries. It is a bit chilly out, but nothing you can't handle until Alpha is finished. It's a dog sweater, so it should be done before spring.

Hang in there, Mr Jeffries! She's a fast knitter, it won't be long!

A Alpha will be finished before you know it.

Poor Mr. J, has to wait for a sweater. At least you have boots! Our mom does make us wear boots but only when it's more than 10 below and there's no sweater for my half brazilian belly right now so STFU!!!
Love and Kisses, Taffy.

I would be more concerned with being blown away! Today is super windy in the DC area! Perhaps A.Alpha could add some weights to the jacket!

It is 16 degrees and blustery in my neck of the woods. I do feel your pain. However, I'm sure you'll get your wardrobe updated soon. Maybe something with lead buttons to keep you grounded?

Tell A. Alpha not to forget the @#$#% edging!!

And it's getting colder! Fifteen degrees colder this morning than it was yesterday!

Mr. Jeffries,
Would you please tell our mother to knit us some coats? It's 4 degrees here today, and she put us out anyway.
Love,
Arwen and Chucho, the naked Chihuahuas
P.S.
We're back in now. We do our business QUICKLY when unattired!

you know you could always figure out how to use the toilet!

Mr. Jeffries - oh how you suffer so!
While being recent reader/lurker, I was unaware that you lived in St. Albans. There is a special spot in my heart for your town as my great-grandparents lived there and I visited several times as a wee child. Fond memories indeed! Not that you care about any of this, but I was all-a-tizzy when I saw those two words... St. Albans. [smile]
Anywho...I hope A.Alpha finishes lengthening your sweater soon. How are your paws? Do you need mitts too? You should not be expected to suffer through the cold winter.
