In a Blink
My cousin from Finland, Minnesota, had just texted me a photo this morning of the blowing snow they were having and had had since during the night. I texted back that we had no snow to be found. In a blink of my eye, the snow started here and it blew and it blew itself into a mini blizzard.
KNUJ kept me up to date on all the closures as they took place. I was warm and comfortable in the studio as the wind continued its howling. I came upstairs at two and the snow had stopped and left our concrete drive wet but bare. The several days of warmth that we had had didn’t allow the snow to stay on the concrete. With that being said the yards are covered with clean white. The radio went on to say that road conditions out in the open were not good. What is out there is now in freezing temps.
The binding of the Christmas placemats has been finished. The sewing of snowflakes on them is going to be on hold for a bit. I have several mini stitched out designs to make into pillows and then get them stuffed. I don’t like UFOs. Finish them up before starting something new.
I peeled the remaining cucumbers for supper also using up the remaining purple onion. We are having a lasagna dish for supper that Carrie had brought for us on Sunday. It just needs to be heated up. An easy supper makes for a happy homemaker . . . me.
Today is Ash Wednesday with many churches in our area having cancelled services for this evening. So the Lenten season begins.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
