    Funk's are wonderful things to be getting out of!! More power to you. Hugs and smiles and happy quilting.

    As an escapee of all that weather, I can remember very well how you feel. The first few storms are great to catch up on your quilting projects. Then things start getting a little funky and you need an escape, any where if just for part of one day to bring you back in touch with the outside world. That did something to reset my confinment attitude. The one thing that always gave me the greatest hope that I would survive was when The Flower Show came to Boston, MA.
    and they didn't have it last year... and i don't think they are this year.... i agree, it was a great reprieve!

    WOW!! I loved the pics. Here Saskatchewan, Canada we didn't get as much snow as all of you did, but we've had a couple of very cold days, minus 30s. That bothers me more than the snow. I remember way back we used to get a lot more snow.

    Well everybody. Hurry and get caught up on your chores. Another storm is coming and if caught up you can use this one to have some quilt time provided we don't all lose power. Battan down the hatches this one sounds like a really nasty one. They said it will affect up to 33 states. Winter can't end soon enough as far as I'm concerned. yuck. :-(
