Hi nygal - I'm on Long Island - middle of the south shore - we got about 18 inches of the white stuff overnight and I'm exhausted from all the cleaning up!! No sewing for me today - just a nap!

Wish I had a good excuse to quilt all day. Instead, DH and I finished putting in two new square foot garden frames and filled them with Mel's Mix, and started 3 buckets of potatoes. Trying to get the "hot" work done before it gets really hot and humid next month. I just hate to sweat! Enjoy the snow.

I have gotten to sew the last 3 or 4 weeks on the weekends. SIL, Husband and Son put in a new ceiling in Dining room and kitchen. SIL is finishing up the mudding, taping and sanding. What a mess, it will be very nice nice when it is finished. Guess I will prep and paint it. I'm very tired of the mess and dust.

As a followup to my original post.....
We had a foot of snow, but the storm has passed, the drive is dug, the sun is shining, its-20 and they're calling for rain tomorrow!!!
I DID gets lots of delicious work on a quilt done, though!

We had about 24" of snow here in Lowell, MA. They just plowed the parking lot of our apt. complex - yesterday they just did the middle, but today my husband had to finish digging out and move the car so they could finish plowing. I had a great weekend quilting a kit I've had for some time and it's now finished ready to see if it needs a border or not, then to the quilting. The snow isn't bad as long as you are on the inside looking out and don't have to be anywhere.

I'm sewing today Sunday. It is snowing here in northern Minnesota and we are in a blizzard which will snow about 8 to 12 inches. Not looking forward to it but hey I can sew with no interruptions. Hope the electricity stays on.
