Snow has starting falling this morning. Cars already covered. Joanns fabric store was jammed last night as everyone was getting yarn anticipating all the snow today. I am off till Saturday thank god. They did not close store as of 10 last night but I am sure they won't be open today.

Bootsy, be safe and warm. My immediate area dodged the bullet. Ice and snow to the east and west of us. Myrtle Beach and Savannah, Ga. has snow as well as all along the coast of NC! We still have the bone chilling cold, but I'll take that. Thank you, Lord, for little favors. Fingers crossed, the wind is supposed to kick in this afternoon.
Everybody in this storm's path, I'm thinking about all of you. Stay warm.

We are pretty to use this bone chilling cold here in the upper Midwest. For those of you that this is relatively unheard of it has to be horrible. We have heavy winter clothing and snow plows for the roads. Can’t imagine being without the basics and enduring this cold and snow. Be safe

Last year when we went to Green Bay, I could not believe how well they are at plowing those roads. They were so quick, the only evidence of snow was the pile ups on the walkways and parking lots. Yes, the upper midwest is set for snow.
We have dodged the snow so far, it is supposed to hit us this weekend, sure when I want to go to the quilt shop.
I have my fabrics cut and ready to put in the baggies, made my little tags for inside on directions, now to get the labels for outside ready to go and off in the mail by tomorrow most likely. This way, they have a couple weeks to get over to the east coast area.

On our local news yesterday, they were saying Florida was putting out sand on their roads where the snow was. This stuff is unheard of that far south! We're just not prepared to combat it like the northern states are. Here in NC we do put salt on the main roads. Other than that, you're on your own!

Just back from yoga and a "side trip" to a LQS for a single yard of turkey red only that I need for a project. So of course, I bought 2 yards of it and a spool of thread and 4 yards of another fabric that's 40 percent off. Besides that, I'm also rethinking my fabric choice. I have had some yellow for several years that I've wanted to pair with white for a sunny quilt. I may switch to that and make it super easy on you all. Simple two color quilt. We'll see. Turns out there's a bit more buried in my stash than I realized. Oh, dear. Also, I found some beautiful fabrics that would pair well with Jaba's green, I don't have anything that will work well, so once I get her F8 in my hands, I'm going to shoot up there again to grab some. When you must, you must.

We have beautiful sunny weather again today, and it's starting to creep up towards 40. That means broken water pipes are thawing out and leaking. We have a standing spigot up at the front of the property that was wrapped really well with foam insulation, but hubby says the water in it still froze and blew the top of it off. So now he's out there dealing with plumbing repair. We have no water pressure here at the house. But we are in better shape than a lot of people. Hope all our Boomers are safe and warm.
