I love it! You are a hoot. Thanks for the smile. Go in and make something pretty in your sewing room. Cute.

Default Spring??

She certainly did NOT hold up her end of the bargain for the first day of spring!

So...I might as well put back on my sweatshirt, sweatpants, fuzzy socks and grab another cup of coffee and hole up in my quilting room! THAT is what gives me a 'spring' in my step!

I'm in Northern Minnesota also. 0 degrees this morning and 2 feet of snow.A perfect day for quilting.

I too, live in Minnesota. I am sooo ready for Spring! But, then comes road constructiona and bugs. I am so tired of having to walk like a 105 year old when I'm outside since the whole yard is glare ice. I tried to walk to my Jeep with my sneakers on, I got 2 steps from the deck and carefully turned around and went back into the house to put on my snow boots. And guess what, more snow coming! I just keep telling myself, spring will come!

Yep, I guess I cannot complain about the mid 60's we have been having this week. At least your weeds are not growing like well WEEDS!

How long did it take you to warm up after putting your sweats and fuzzy socks back on and drinking what I would guess would be several cups of coffee?

I love your picture.

Well, We've had our air cond. on today, also in the car. But, boy, when you have nice summers, we'll have blazin' hot summers. Guess we'll just have to go with it. Not much we can do about it.

Snow here in Massachusetts too. We had another storm yesterday. It's cold too. We are way below normal. You are right--might as well quilt.
