Thanks for the support. I haven't even looked for the bulb yet. I heard the sofa calling my name, and answered with honor. The snow began at about 2130, and should continue through the night. Schools are on a two hour delay, but unless it gets really warm, I seriously doubt that they'll open at all. That gives me more time to get ready for this weekend's retreat.

Not sure what I'll work on. Probably the new cat quilt my daughter wants for her birthday at the end of this month. This will be a quilt, shams and curtains project. Kinda hard to make it as a surprise, as her room is next to the sewing room. With four days of dedicated sewing, I ought to get most of it finished. She'll see it once I get it racked on the frame. Don't think I'll be able to hide that.

So, to that end, providing we maintain power, I'll print the patterns, mark rulers, cutters, etc, and pack my bags and machine.

Now, to get a little light on that old machine, if I can't locate it, I wonder if my LQS has any. They have a nice assortment of belts, bobbin cases, and other necessities for the old girls. Perhaps they can get the middle age girl a bit brighter - but they too, will probably be closed. I have enough other machines to light up my life. The 201 was the only accessible one which would go through 6 layers of fleece and high loft.

Oh, another calling - this time it's my bed.
