Snow Day

It snowed last night ... oh yes it snowed!  DH measured the snow in the driveway, where there was 10".  This is a shot of our patio table on the deck.

All the schools here, including the University, are closed.  Even though I won't get paid (since I'm part time), having a snow day is still welcome news ... having an unexpected, unplanned day off is always a pleasure!

I'm going to do some quilting today ... I'll piece the star blocks for T#4's big girl quilt (hopefully I won't have to rip as much as I did in completing the first star block - ha!).  I also would like to start quilting on the doll quilt I made out of some leftover blocks of T#2's big girl quilt; I didn't finish it when I made her big girl quilt because she wasn't into dolls then ... but she got a doll at Christmas that she seemed to really enjoy ... so perhaps it's time to finish the doll quilt.

  3. What a great plan to fill in those hours that you will not be working. We saw the Sun for the first time in days but snow is on its way again tonight. Maybe it's coming from your house.

  4. Yikes! I would say you did get some snow! They're calling for accumulation in our area today. One weatherman says only an inch, while another predicts 3 or 4!

  5. Hi there, This shot looks like it could have been taken of my back deck. We had a light dusting yesterday but none today but it was sure cold!!!!
    Have a wonderful day.
