Winter Returns
After a very mild January, wintry weather blew in with February. It’s been a little cold in the mornings but afternoons aren’t too bad. The groundhog does really mean much down in these parts – there is no way that winter will last six more weeks down here – the average highs are moving towards the low 60’s so even if we do get a little wintry weather it won’t last long. It looks like we might get some flurries on Saturday – but beautiful weather returns for Sunday.
I made a blanket last night. My husband wanted a fleece blanket for the bed so I found a really cute fleece fabric on eBay – medium gray with black and white dog prints. I got a big grin from my husband when I showed him the fabric. Armed with black blanket binding and my trusty Singer, I made a blanket. I know how to sew but prefer to stitch straight seams. I have another blanket that needs the binding replaced – I’ll save that project for the weekend.
I’m still working at the cookie and muffin factory. You could tell that they were baking chocolate chip cookies this afternoon as I walked out of work. That was pure torture! I’m starting my third month there – this job was supposed to last only three weeks. I like working over there so I don’t mind the extension…
I have another temp agency that is courting me. Although I like where I’m working, I am still a temp and will always listen to offers. <grin>
I’ve been reading the King James Bible and I am in Revelations. I am just about done with the New Testament but I still have the Old Testament to read. This system really works for me, but I didn’t come up with it. I heard it on Real Life Radio with Pastor Leo Giovinetti (http://www.mvcf.com)
Still stitching. I’ve picked back up the stamped piece I had been working on late last year. I’m not really fond of stamped cross-stitch but couldn’t resist the cute design. The sooner I get this piece done the quicker that I can get back to doing what I love – counted cross stitch!
Hope you all are staying warm!!
Take care & enjoy,
