Snow Joke!

So, that's what I get when I commit to making a blog post every day.  My  internet goes down and the sky dumps almost six inches of snow on me.  Someday I'll learn!

The parents braved the snow anyway, to stay the night before they had appointments locally.  Cleaning the house in prep for their arrival yielded several headbands I'd thought I lost!  Plus, I finished Mom's birthday scarf, and made a headband for myself out of the leftover yarn.  Nicely productive.  Bulky yarn does have its advantages, especially getting stuff done fast.  I made a scarf for a friend in two nights' easy work.

I love the snow when it's thick and white on the ground like this.  Talk to me in three days when it's half-frozen on top, black and dirty in the streets (and thus on my shoes), and thorougly dog-dug in my backyard, and I won't be so enamored of it.  I've got the ol' bag of kitty litter in my trunk, and I'm actually a really good driver in slippery conditions (thank you, front-wheel drive!), but I'm not the type to go outside and make a snowman.  I just want to look outside and see it softly falling as I think about not having to go to work the next day.  No luck on that today!  I made it in, but we're kind of on a skeleton crew.  Luckily, so is the patron traffic.

The calendar here at the work break station showed April.  What a dream!  But really, I've got too much to do to fast-forward that far.  Travel plans, luggage to get, paperwork to file... back to the grind before the fun!
