Snowed All Day

This morning, I was getting ready to head to the museum for our presentation. At the time I left, it started to snow. We were at the museum around 11:15 am. It was coming down fast. 


Two veterans canceled and one called to see if we were still having it. I told her it would be quick and not to bother coming in. This is bad for our area and people around here don't know how to drive in this. We were just getting ready to do the presentation at noon when Chip said to get everyone out and go home. So, we canceled the presentation and asked everyone to head home because the roads are bad. One veteran's son was making a big deal out of him taking time off to come to this and he wouldn't be able to come back. So, we did a very fast presentation and sent them on the way. At least we got one veteran done. We cleaned up and headed out the door. The blue fabric Debbie brought for me was missing. So, we looked all over. Even sent an email asking if anyone saw it. We will call tomorrow and see if it was dropped or something. I brought Donna home as she lives close by. Called Patrick to tell him we were on our way home. 

Took it slow and steady. Slipped twice and not enough to do any damage. I did watch a few other cars and trucks slide even worse than me. And those were 4x4s. lol Made it home in 45 minutes. 


It was still coming down. Mom canceled tomorrow. Our backyard looked pretty. 


But the front yard was even more snow. 

I played a few games and then worked on my cross stitching. I wanted to do something today. I could have gotten the backing and batting for the two quilts that were given to me, but decided not to go downstairs where it's cold. lol 


I worked on his face some more. I have it done now and need to add the hair and greenery. It's coming along. I'm excited to finish this now. 

Our BE seminar information came in yesterday. Patrick was looking at the classes and to be honest with everyone, I didn't find one I wanted to do. Yes, they are pretty. Yes, they are educational. yes, I like the teachers. BUT, is it something I would hang on my walls? Nope. Is it something I would want to work on after the class is over? Nope. Do I want to spend money to be with friends? Yes. Do I want to spend money to do this in a motel? Nope. I don't think Sandy will be going either, so it's not going to happen for me. 

Let's see what tomorrow brings. Debbie and I were going to Gee Gee's in Yelm for panels to work on. At this rate, we won't be going there either. This is the second time we canceled. 

BUT all in all, I was able to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
