more snow

http://www.modabakeshop.com/2011/02/summer-dreamin.html


At 4:00 AM last night I was still trying to get to sleep. There was no snow coming down at that time. and  I fell peacefully asleep. When I awoke this is the sight that greeted me through my bedroom window.



Beautiful sight. We stayed in today and rested from the duties of life and enjoyed the view from the windows..  
And the snow is still coming down.

We did nothing, I had some things to do personally and that was it. So I had a nice nap and then played on my laptop. I wish I was not always so tired out. It interferes with my productivity. LOL.

Tomorrow we'll get to go out for a while. It is better when we go out, it seems to energize me even if I get tired. Just hanging in there is so exhausting when you are in your eighties. I never thought age would be a factor but it is huge. 

Adam called today and we had a good old chin wag as his father's mother would say. She was English and had some great comments she used. Funny though my dad was English but he did not have those colloquialisms. He and my mom who was a Scot were very Canadian .  Both of them lost their initial accents except for the odd word here and there.




Pat Sloan's block is pretty in red , black and white.

I like this applique block and I understand it is in the latest magazine 100 blocks which is still not up here in the hinterland. I looked yesterday, no luck.


When I opened my laptop this morning this is what greeted me. It was from a long time friend. I like it.

Bow Tie blocks make a nice quilt. This pattern was  the first quilt I made.

Boy's Nonsense. Why it is in pink I have no idea but or course you are not pinned to pink :>)

Canada won the gold medal in men's hockey. Congratulations to our men and women who also won the gold medal in women's hockey.

So this is it for tonight folks.
Have a lovely evening.
Good night.
