What a storm! I haven't seen anything like it in a while. It rained and rained at first, and I doubted the weatherman. We even had mini puddles in the backyard. But then the wind came and the temperature dropped. We had a half inch as I went to bed Sunday. Not bad, I was thinking. So why close the library and school already?
But then I woke up to lots of snow swirling everywhere. And nothing is going anywhere: no traffic at all. And white and more white snow over the ground, over the streets and blowing like crazy. It didn't stop till the afternoon.
Funny thing though, the birds were busy in the backyard eating seeds from the birdfeeders. All except the robins who were fluffed trying to stay warm. They at least at the leftover berries on the crabapple tree.
The remainder left from the storm is surprising to see. With all the drifting, it is hard to determine how many inches of that white stuff. At least it isn't 31inches like a couple hours north of here. Interstate 94 was closed with accidents and people stranded in the daytime over 5 hours or more.
So I have done a little sewing:
And I do have some cross stitch to share. I keep at it each night with my hubby in front of the television. This has been about 2 weeks worth. The leprechaun is from Not Forgotten Farms.
The stitch below is a reprint from the Prairie Schooler.
