He does great work doesn't he? bravo Robert!

Themamahauser is mean and evil and oh ok fine no she is not she is also my friend and I too am very fortunate to call her this. She does terrific work and you will just love her Retiredfirechief! I have worked with her on two round robins and boy her piecing is on target every single time. You won the grand lotto this month!!!

Now onto ME. I am frozen solid. One big frozen brick of me! its -20 this morning and will not go above -6 today. Lucky us. And I have to GO OUT IN THIS? yikes! My DH has opened the front door TWICE this morning to stand out on the porch and smoke. That is one mean addiction if you are willing to hang out in that weather! I plan to sew all afternoon in my nice warm home. Now that is a great idea I think!

We hit -45 today. I have not been able to do anything with my hair other than a simple braid because it's so cold that if I wear it down, I get haircicles and they break. If I wear it up in a bun, the bun freezes and I get a migraine before I even get to school. My husband says, "You could blow dry your hair, dear." Quite frankly, that's too much work and would require me waking up even earlier for school. I have sacrificed beauty for sleep (isn't it usually the other way around?).

Be thankful you're not wearing skirts and hanging out in a 3-story brick building whose boilers go on the fritz with regularity.

Kelly-- Oh my gosh, YES. I'm so glad you get it too!! I couldn't tell you the last time I dried my hair. I'm guessing it was sometime in 2011. I pull it up into a bun when I go outside, then on my way to work in the mornings, I turn on the heat full blast and dry it as much as possible.

No one else gets it! I have really thick hair, so it would take an extra hour (at least!) to dry it. No thank you!
