    Looks like we're going home early today. Some reports say we can expect as much as 5" of snow. No big deal for most folks - but here in Houston it is definitely a big deal. Sewing room here i come. Of course, I'll have to stop long enough to build a snowsomething :P

    I am so envious. We were expecting about an inch, which really would close down San Antonio because the last time we saw any snow was in 1985. But the latest reports this morning are that we MIGHT get a few flurries. Darn!

    We had about 2-3 inches yesterday, with a little wind. Fortunately , no big drifts anywhere, but the guys were able to get the corn out on my son's land. Clear and cold last night, sunshine today, but still cold...not warm enough so the snow sticks to build a snowsomething. ( I like that term!) We still have about 100+ acres of crop to take out. I'll be glad when we are done!

    Smiling in Houston, also. It rains awhile and it snows awhile. Don't think that there will be any snowmen, it is turning to water here as soon as it hits the ground. I did take a few pictures to document this strange event.

    I want a sew day!! I am jealous. Sadly we just dont see that much snow in this part of Utah....just lots of cold. It was -3 on my way to work this morning. Oh how I wished I was home by the fire working on the baby quilt I am hand quilting!
