Windows print to PDF

It's Friday and it's 4:02 PM. I have nothing more clever in me. I'm just ready to go home and pet my dog Lucy. Here's a poem about Lucy.

With fur like clouds, a snowy heap, 

Lucy the fluff, in slumber deep. 

A gentle giant, soft and white, 

A cuddly dream, a pure delight. 

Her paws like pillows, big and grand,

A wagging tail, across the land.

A loving gaze, a happy sigh,

My fluffy Lucy, reaching high!
