Plans for a snow NH day

Jan 18, 2011 11 Replies

Is some serious stitching time. No school today because to the forecast conditions for later today - ice/sleet. UGH



I do have some house work that needs to be done and some mending and mounds of laundry. And then STITCHING. And reading (latest Marcia Muller) and some fantasy gardening - I'm drooling over some yellow Siberian iris and a couple of new coral bells that would suit the revised long beds wonderfully.


Did get to work on my purse project yesterday at DD's dentist appointment and while she had hockey practice; it is an Australian kit of a yellow flower and a paler yellow fabric.


Maybe today is the day those baby dragons come off the Qsnaps for ever!

Figures, I heard we expect snow tomorrow - can't you ever learn to keep your snow where you're at Cheryl ????

We had ice today. I gingerly walked down the driveway for the papers. Sun's out, starting to melt it as we go up to 40. The trees are all now dripping. Of course by the weekend we'll be in the single digits with snow Thurs/Fri. The weatherman refused to discuss Sunday's weather. Go Steelers!!!

I've gotten the Xmas ornaments assembled, started on Fractal 53 again after deciding I needed to do SOME STITCHING, not just finishing. So the needle case awaits.

Off to make vegetable soup, read a few chapters of William Least-Heat Moon's Road to Quoz and do some stitching.

Same here. But because it flurried/sleeted/iced last night. Roads dangerous. Concern that it's finally going to warm, melt, and then do it again.

Hmmm - sounds pretty good = the fantasy gardening. Ditto here - laundry, mending (DH got pinged 'cause his old ref pants are kinda torn, need to hem new ones). And stitch. Fantasy painting of house and garden movement of plants - dreaming if I actually get a real job then we can hire someone to move some trees, etc.

Sounds good. I did a Cheryl, and stitched on my Mill Hill beads & buttons Martini kit while in frozen ice rink.

Nice thought. I'm going back to work on a proposal piece I'd punted 'cause we just found out the due date was not yesterday, but end of the month! Woo hoo.

Have fun to all of us. Just made latte's for DH & I - so we can sit, and I can stitch - when I go back downstairs.

I'd prefer it had stayed somewhere else too!

So fix it and we'll both be happy. I see on Channel 7 they are busy cancelling all evening events. On their weather map (they actually do show NS usually on maps of NE somehow NS is omitted) I can see the snow just about reaching Brier Island.

Mutter mutter - just have to hope it veers off and trundles up to Sharon in NB !

I was surprised to see my daughter was on Facebook today, when I checked in. She is in Maryland, just north of DC. She said she was "iced in" and couldn't safely get to work. Nasty everywhere, I suppose. We had tornado warnings and heavy rain yesterday, down here in Florida.

I'm wondering what the AM will bring, more delays or cancellations and DD has an orthodontist appt first thing. MOAN

We didn't have much snow, but the wind blew like crazy and it was waaaay below zero wind chills. I got 2 baptism cloths done, most of a third and have one more to go. Then on to Carol Singers!

Saw you got them done.....congrats!!!!! Will be waiting for the pics....

I really didn't mean it about Sharon in NB but we are to get RAIN ! lol Think I will stay well clear of her now !

Could you fax me a bowl of that soup?? Sounds yummy!!

just me, Cathy from KY in CA

I'd love to but DM and DB would fight you for it. Wasn't cold here but it still tasted good. Will taste even better the second day.
