Bit of Snow 2-19-2025

By

I realize this isn’t much snow,
but it is a snow.
I wanted to show we got a bit of it.

Wishing you all a warm rest of the week.

 

 

WIP Wednesday – Shawl – Daffodils

By

I’m crocheting a new shawl using a new type of yarn for me. I’ve reworked the pattern a few times and raveled out the started project 4 times. I think I’m finally at a happy place with the way it’s going.
I’ve not used this yarn before. It’s ‘Red Heart Unforgettable’ Meadow color. The yarn is super soft. I love the color.
The pattern (of the moment) is a simple V-stitch. I like how it looks, so far.
I ordered 50 yellow ‘Dutch Master Daffodil’ bulbs. They arrived this morning. I’m so happy to have them here. I’ll plant them soon. They won’t bloom this year, but hopefully next year they’ll make a pretty showing.

I’m still working on my diamond painting. It’s coming along, but it’s time consuming with all the many colors.

The sun is shining, and the temperature is a comfortable 77°F. It’s such a nice day.
I know there’s some freezing weather moving across the states. I wish the warm winds of Springtime would blow into your areas and chase the winter cold away.
Take care and stay safe.
Have a pleasant rest of the week!

Bit of Snow for Christmas

By

Here in my neck-of-the-woods, we got a bit of snow the 23rd of December. The -20° wind chill was the worst part though.
The wind flipped over my 4 deceased mums that I had left on the porch. I plan on tossing them away sometime.
The wind has calmed down. The snow is still laying around, but thankfully the roads are clear.
I know it’s not much snow, but for me it was good to have a manageable bit of snow on Christmas day. Snow always seems to add an extra bit of that ol’ holiday magic. ☃️
The temperature stayed in the single digits, until Christmas day, then it warmed up to 25°F.
Rumor has it, the weather forecasters predict, that it’s going to warm up to the mid 50’s by next weekend… We are hoping for it to be so.

My heart goes out to all the folks in the regions who are in freezing and/or blizzard conditions. I hope you all are bundled up and hunkered down and make it through this horrible weather safely.
I send you all my warmest thoughts for a heat wave to thaw out your regions and life gets back to normal soon.
I pray the worst of snows and freezing cold is over with for this winter. 🙏
Stay warm and safe. ❤️
