Some Rain
Some rain right before the snow started last night. The temps plummeted in the low 20s. Yup . . . it was icy under the snow this morning. We had a good three inches with the wind blowing from the northwest when I went to bed. Looking at a streetlight the snow could easily be seen.
Randy was over with his long green line fairly early. It is three this afternoon and our concrete drive is clear from the strong beams of the sun. I have our front deck cleared as well as the back door to the garage.
When I read a paperback book and tear each page off as I read it for lack of being able to hold a book, around my cherry red chair and book stand, it is worse than a shredder with fine paper dust. It was time for a cleanup job. I wear fuzzy slippers in the house. We have one rug in the house and that is in front of the toilet. My fuzzy slippers catch all the fine shreds of paper and pieces of thread from stitching and then deposit that on the bathroom rug. It is no wonder, Dennis shakes that rug almost every other day. Oh well. It is all doable for me to feel the contentment of reading and stitching.
After the last large cross stitch item that is still waiting to be framed down here in the studio, I did several small projects that I want to make into pin cushions. I have them down here in the studio, sizing them up for backings. With my scrap bin, that was no problem. I also had scrap pieces of woven stabilizer to iron onto the back of the stitched out items. Those soon-to-be pin cushions will be my tomorrow project.
With that I take my leave. ♥
