I decided to catch up on my Raggedy & Friends blocks first. This is block 4 completed. I have block 6 embroidered and patchwork pieces cut out. Tonight I worked on embroidering #5.
We had a 3 day blizzard to end 2010 and begin 2011. It started Thursday with flurries and wind. Friday was the day with the most snow and high wind. We stayed home New Years Eve--we usually do. lol We actually stayed up past midnight. We watched a movie and it didn't get over until 12:15. Saturday morning was very windy, but suddenly after dinner it went down and the blizzard was over.
At times I could hardly see the road and not the trees at all.
We had a bank on the deck to shovel off.
The barn doors were snowed shut.
Nobody in the dog house--completely covered up!
Today, Sunday the sun was shining bright. The white was blinding. Sunshine makes me feel so much better.
DH got the snowblower hooked up and went to work. It attaches to the back of the tractor and he backs up into the snow to blow it out of the way. He cleaned out the calves' yard and made a spot to feed the cows tomorrow.
It was -10 F this morning. January is my least favorite month--it's usually the coldest month. When it's cold that makes me want to bake. I made buns and cookies. It warmed up the kitchen nicely.
Happy New Year to all of you!
