IT"S NOT SUPPOSED TO SNOW ON MY BIRTHDAY!

Now, I totally 'get' that lots of people love snow.  Simply put - I DON'T!  It's pretty, but in someone else's backyard.  I suppose I could move down south but I know that won't ever happen.  So, I put up with the weather from November through March.  That's only 5 months and usually it's only for 3 months because most of the time we can dodge the snowy weather in November and March.  But, really?  Snow on my birthday?  The one day I take off for me?  The one day I like to head to Lancaster with my BFF and stroll up and down the fabric aisles?  I know, I know.  They are only calling for a dusting in the morning but when you don't drive in it AT ALL and it will take you an hour and a half to get to Lancaster, well, I am not a happy camper.  We'll see what the day brings tomorrow, it might not be a total wash-out after all.  I will see the glass as half-full tonight and hope that it's all just a mistake on the meteorologists part.  The worst case scenario - I stay home and sew all day!!

Today is Training Day 6 for Katie and she was working with the pugil sticks today.  Bet she had fun whacking someone else today!  She sends home letters that are funny to us.  15-20 second showers and her bunk mates are smelly?  Haha!  I bet she is smelly too and just doesn't know it!  Almost at the end of another long day for her.  Every night at 8:00 I say good-night to her in my heart. 

My quilt frame is downstairs finally and I can't wait until I can get it set up.  Dear husband told me that he is almost ready to put up 2 walls for me and once they go in, I can move a few things around and get started on setting up the sewing room.  It's a good thing I get a long Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday - lots of time to work on that little job.  

I did work on a baby quilt on Saturday and just have the binding to finish.  I also got 10 sets of material cut out for 10 snap bags.  I'm getting paid to make 9 of them - score!

Gotta scoot!
