Snow--Instead of ICE?!?!

According to the weather forecasters, we're in for some snow--at least six inches--starting tonight through Sunday morning!! WOO HOO!! Now, I know that some of you have had more than your fair share of snow and wouldn't be very excited about this.

But, we haven't had our first REAL snowstorm of this winter yet. In a way, I'm looking forward to it--though I do have some plans that will not come about if this snow does arrive.

If it does arrive though then I'll have a chance to catch up on some things that I've been meaning to do and have put on the backburner--like do the last day of my first KAL of the year, start my next KAL, and finish the reconstruction of my blog!! I still have all my CHRISTmas projects listed here!! I really need to get this updated!! There is more to do, of course, but the list could go on forever.

Here are two pictures of what our winter has been so far:




As you can see, it's been ice, ice and more ice!! I'm ready for a little of the white stuff falling from the sky!!

Christmas Progression

So far, the rugs that I posted several days ago have done nothing but frustrate me. I have almost completely started them over twice. After doing this the second time, I set them aside for a while. I know myself enough to know that when a project is frustrating me, I'm best to put it down, move on to something else and then come back to it later.

I think the reason it is so frustrating to me is the many color changes. I'm thinking of a different way to do this to make it a little easier.

What have I moved on to?

I have started LIndsay's second market bag:


Today I went to the store to buy the circular needles I needed to make Cara's hat to match her scarf. I couldn't believe of all the needles that I have that I didn't have this size!! So that will also be in progress--hopefully by the beginning of the week.

I know that some of you think I have forgotten my Kitty Tracker, but I have not!! So, here is kitty moving along:

Thank goodness I have finally reached beyond the 10 pound point!! It seemed to take forever!! But, what you have to remember (and probably most of you don't know) is that last year at this time I was almost 50 pounds heavier than I am now.

And yesterday and last night, we had our first snow!!


I took these pictures yesterday outside of my office before I went into work. Not a lot of snow, maybe 1/2 to 1 inch, and then just cold enough to make the road a little icy last night. We've had flurries off and on through the day.

Back to the Christmas projects now!!

K--that's all for a while!!

Summer Sky

Ah, yes!!! Another project completed. Snowed today, but not enough to close our office. We did leave a little early, but not as early as I had hoped!!

I love the colors in this--reminds me that summer is on its way and MAYBE, just MAYBE a trip to the beach!!
