It is suppose to turn to freezing rain this afternoon. That is the worst. I would much rather have snow. This winter is already too long.

That's the best part of a snow day. I am in my cave working on C'mas gifts. A lot of our gifts go to Canada, so I need to get them in the mail this week or they won't get there in time ....and you know the grandbabies will not be impressed if Gramma is late!!! LOL. Patti

I know, that's why we went to Bend yesterday to finish up shopping for the Grand babies in Oklahoma. I have to get that stuff wrapped, packed and shipped by Monday. I still have to finish the binding on Bella's quilt and make one of those shopping cart cover thingys for her.

I woke up to a light dusting of snow. Not enough to cause troubles just enough to excite DGD.

Oh not the freezing rain, yucky! It makes all my joints hurt so I can barely walk, and then if I try I usually fall, and I have a bad habit of breaking things when I fall. Geez it's hell getting old! LOL

Well we had a blizzard night before last and yesterday, 30-50 mile winds only about 1-3 inches of snow. The Hills area, about 25 miles from us, got 2 feet of snow. Good sking and snowboarding. Just stayed home, the kids were home still from the Thanksgiving break. We ate all day long as we still had so much food leftover from turkey day..Blessings

This has been a good snow day. I finished the last of the pillow cases to go to Canada, quilted my mom's lap quilt and am now hand stitching the back of the binding on. Yay for snow with wind. :)
