Right now, the book is pretty much all I'm thinking about.I promise a better blog tomorrow.Stay warm and safe and be kind to each other.We're all we've got.

That's how the snow looks in this welcome and wonderful sunlight. As though someone sprinkled the whole world with silvery glitter. Gorgeous.I was a little under the weather over the weekend--fighting off a cold. Hence, I didn't accomplish much--I mostly vegged around...

While I wait for my shipment of Friendly Plastic to arrive (I'll bet you think I'm kidding, with the word 'shipment'--think cargo container), I'm experimenting with a paper quilling kit I bought on the last run to Hobby Lobby. This is actually quite intriguing. There...

I love this stuff!It's shiny. It's messy. It comes in a million colors, and there are all kinds of how-to videos online. Yeehaw!!!Check out Cool2Craft.com for some interesting stuff.And now, to work. Not much in the way of news, but there you go. I promised not to...

Snow! It's beautiful, it's several inches deep, and it's still coming down. Good thing I already bought the turkey. :)We saw a cow and bull moose passing the fence yesterday, a lovely sight in the snow. These animals are truly magnificent, though I certainly wouldn't...

The stuff is coming down in earnest now, and it's beautiful. Easy for me to say, I know, because I don't have to go anywhere. Sadie may be having a snow-day today--depends on how her "driver", Jen, feels about the state of the roads.The weekend was a restful one for...
