    Well...no more blizzards anyway. We do occasionally get hurricanes with high winds. Just saying... Lots of quilt shops though! :-)

    That sunshine was beautiful yesterday wasn't it? The sky was such a vibrant blue. Did you have hoarfrost? We had it covering our birch trees and it dusted off onto the ground and looked like diamonds falling.

    Get everything done today and tomorrow because come Thursday and Friday we are in for another one. It is supposed to go up to 38* on Thursday and rain - right at going home time! And then drop down in temp from water on the streets to ice skating time! We just got our alley plowed from the storm on Saturday! I have never been so shovel-sore in all my life. Happy New Year!!!

    You could move to the mountains of N.Ga. We get about 2 weeks of real winter, long spring,fall, and summer. Really don't think I could do a Mich winter again....ever....long dreary, cold. This is God's country.

    Here in FL we may not have snow but Hurricanes we get and if you think waiting out a snow storm is bad wait til you have to wait for all the electricity to be rerouted and turned back on! Just kidding, it is way better than snow!

    Really sucks that you've got all that moisture and we really need some. Not that much, but still, we are so dry the wheat is almost gone.
