the snow last night

when i woke up this morning: view out of my window

yesterday, again

a thank you craft that I'm working on

the snow this afternoon. not looking forward to digging out.

at least crafts will keep me busy! More loom knit crafts.

tater, in her element

I wanted to share some photos of the past day and a half with you all. Isn't it amazing how much snow we can get at once? This hasn't happened since we moved here over two years ago. Tater loves it to so much! Being short definitely doesn't slow her down...she bounds and leaps through the 3-4 feet snow banks. I really dread digging my car out.

Counting on being snowed in this weekend, I was already prepared with groceries and craft items. I have been working on a frame order that I received as well. I'm loving loom knitting...it's the only kind of knitting that makes sense to me! I hope to have a few more new items in my shop over the next week or two...can't wait to show you all!

It's been a cold one here this week. We have had a couple of days in the negative digits and are expected to have at least one more day of it. Although this photo was taken over winter break with Ryan, it pretty much summarizes me how I am now: wearing gloves, drinking a hot beverage. Bundled up. Brrrrrrr. Anyone else experiencing some intensely cold weather this week?

I have an aunt named Sandy, which makes the name of this storm incredibly funny to me. My Aunt Sandy is a petite woman who kills with kindness and there's no way she could be this impossibly large storm that is approaching. So far today we have wind and rain, but I have experienced worse storms here. We are supposed to get more of it tonight and tomorrow, so perhaps I should hold off judgment until then. For now, I can enjoy working from home with the comfort of my snuggily dog and a bowl of curry. I have my flashlights, water and food. My gas tank is full. Here's hoping we don't lose power, but we just might. This is the current radar:

Look at those storms, coming our way! If you are being affected by the storms, too, be safe! I'll be thinking about all of us while the storm rolls through this week.
