She's At It Again.....!!


This was the look on Max's face after i jerked the bed sheets out from under him this morning.....
Had to get them in the washing machine....!!

You see......i have a touch of OCD when it comes to approaching snow storms....

The laundry ....... must be done!!

So i rush around the house.......grabbing up sheets....dog blankies.......kitty blankies......people throws....towels........and then the underwear....jeans....khakies.... and shirts......!!

Doing load ..... after load ..... at a frenzied pace.....

Can't be caught in a snow storm with dirty underwear...!!

Stay warm and Enjoy

In Between.....


Yep....we're in between snow storms....
Time to take stock and re-stock.....

So.....there's CityBoy...breaking up the ice on the curve in the driveway....


In an attempt to get the car back up to the house......

That way i don't have to walk down the drive........ahhhhh!!

Seems there is something at Radio Shack in Boone that he can't live without.....
knew there was another reason for the shoveling....

Then it's off to the bank ...... post office ...... the food store for me ..... exercise for him ...... the library, maybe ....... the electric company.......

Ohhhh........you know the routine......

'Cause....there's another one on the way...!!!

Stay warm and Enjoy

View from the Ice Bowl......


Actually...this is the view from the back door......from the bottom of the drive way.....


"The Ice Bowl"

My poor little light.....it's got a topping of snow.....


View to the left....there use'ta be a gentle downward slope to a dry creek bed....

Ahhhhhh......maybe i'll find it again in Spring.....

Hello.....big-tall fur trees.....

How do you like your coating of snow and ice..??

Note pitch of driveway.......this is about halfway down.....on the curve....

Good Morning......hard woods....!

Having trouble holding up your branches today...?


Almost to the top of the driveway......

Don't think we'll be putting the cars in the garage for a few days.....

And it's still snowing..!!

Stay warm and Enjoy

What's Happen'n.....??


This is what's going on at my house....SNOW....hummmm....go figure!!

I started just before midnight and hasn't quit yet.....


Looks like about 6-8 inches so far...
And the flakes are so big and heavy......i can hear them hitting the trees
......the front porch ...... the cars......the ground.......the dogs ......the cat....

Suppose to stop sometime this afternoon and turn into rain and ice.....
And then.....the dreaded......"Wintery Mix".....

yahhhhhhh!!


Well.......think i'll snuggle in with Max...

Stay warm and Enjoy

Building the Stash......


Oooops......loaded the pictures backward.......oh well!!

Here's the back of my newest table runner....this fabric is named Western Flower and i got it somewhere in Atlanta at last years shop-hop......i like it....it worked preddy-good!!


I think i bought this pattern and fabric...Zippity Doo Dah by Mode..... as a "kit" ...... can't remember from where......might have been Green Fairy Quilts....
i am getting old....and the memory is the first to go....


It's a little bit too Americana for the little cabin in the woods......
I do like the pattern and will make another for me.....
Maybe next snow storm.....

So in the gift stash it goes!

Or maybe send it to the female child.....

Decisions......decisions....decisions.....!

Where's that flipping coin when i need it....???!!

Enjoy
