Good morning, everyone!! White stuff is making it look beautiful here. Just a wee bit...my son and DIL sound as if they're getting pummeled with snow in the DC/VA area...

Hope Barb makes it okay, Jenn...thoughts for a safe drive going out...
Vonn, you are a peach...you've had so many challenges...and still keep dusting yourself off and getting up again. Kudos to you, girl

My DD25 drove down last night...she wanted to attend the extended family get together, since she hasn't seen her cousins since the wedding, and their babies for a long time. I let her make the cheesecake we're bringing so she knows how to do it...she loves baking. It's hard to sit and let someone do my thing, tho It's the control freak in me, I guess.

Slept all night with the CPAP mask on...didn't bother me, but the stupid spasms in my legs did...of course, did I remember to take the additional medication the doc told me to take? Noooo... I'll remember from now on, tho, 'cause DH will make darn sure I do...

Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday...stay safe!

surprises today ...

first - went to pick up mail - I ordered some Aunt Martha pattern's from off of ebay .. I got to the UPS store ... and I got this HUGE box ... from some friends in Green Bay!!!

second - got home .. and my ceiling is dripping ... so I had to move a bunch of boxes ...

in the meantime, mail came to the apartments - with another box from a friend in Green Bay ...

dripping solved: the lady above me had a dehumidifier - and it overflowed and there was this puddle of water that made it thru her carpet, flooring, my ceiling ... solution: just let it dry out ...

disappointing news: received my answer from the Wisconsin Arts Board for the quilts ... $8000 grant ... only 7 out of 177 .. and I wasn't one of them ..

now - working at really reorganizing ...

I did pick up a frozen pizza ... woo hoo!!

it'll all work out as long as I keep my cool ...

btw, I did check doggie beds ... and mine would look so much cooler to make cat 'bankies' ... like 2 ft x 2 ft ... that should work!!

tkrik- I am truly blessed to have the boss I have. Her assistant is just as sweet.

White carp continues to fall from the sky. DS has dug us out three times and DD helped once. I haven't set foot outside at all today. I'm hoping tomorrow's first shovel out is the last one needed for this round. Actually I won't complain if it never snows again. Unfortunatly we've been lucky the last few years so I fear we are in for a nasty one this time.

I haven't gotten anything done today that was on my to do list. I did however clear out two places that needed clearing out. More stuff got added to the cyber yard sale pile.

The to do list keeps yelling at me.

Good morning all! I hope you all are having a great Sunday! You all know how much I love Sundays.

For all of you in the path of the NE winter storm, stay safe and check in when you can.

Not doing much today at all. I know I posted this in the MS forum but I seem to have tendonitis, possibly from spasticity in my arm. So I will be chilling again today.

I helped my mom make cookies yesterday. Usually my girls go over and help her but they are big girls now (LOL) and are busy with their own lives. My mom and DDs have been doing this since they were about 3 and 4. It was their special time with Grandma. My mom makes so many cookies and I told her I would come help. She has more to make and I'll help her with those as well.

Trish, helping with cookies is always a good thing - especially since the old rule is that the bakers get to taste test everything.

Weave, totally understand the to do list yelling at ya.

Vonn,

Everyone,

~~~~~

Hoping for a better day today. Last one was a bit rough. Crossing fingers!

Morning all! Nothing big planned today except maybe cleaning the basement. We are supposed to get a storm on xmas eve which could dampen my party. I'll have to keep an eye on it and make a decision by Tuesday what to do. Ugh. I hate when that happens because if you cancel, the weather could change. If you don't it could be bad for your guests. My brother is driving in from OK Christmas day. It will be nice to have him here for a few days.

Mom is getting settled in. Jim and I are too. lol

to everyone for a good day and for healing if your feeling down or not up to par.

Barb, hope you had safe travels.

Good afternoon everyone! Hope all of you in that snowy east are safe and doing well...my son lives near Baltimore...got 2 ft. He and his wife took their dog for a 3 hr. walk...the dog was in heaven. They adopted her this summer, so it's their first winter with a pet.

DD just drove off for cheesehead home...she came down for the extended family holiday party. She thought it was so much fun to see the young ones...little ones add so much to a family gathering, she said. I am happy that they're my SIL's grandkids...I'm not ready yet.

Sandy, I just watched the forecast on the Weather Channel...now they're saying freezing rain for Thursday...you know it'll change. They seem to have difficulty predicting these things this year.

Well, hope all of you have a good Sunday afternoon/evening
