I went to bed last night expecting a "dusting of snow." When I woke up this morning, the dusting had turned into 7 inches. Fortunately, we are closed on Mondays so I didn't have to worry about sending out the notice that we were closed for snow, putting the notice on the website and leaving a message on the machine. So I was able to enjoy the snow day. I did think of all the schoolkids who didn't get a snow day because school was already closed.
I had time to browse through other people's blogs. I was highly complimented that Jane of Chilly Hollow mentioned last week about our St. Basil's class. I also learned that Carole changed her finished piece from her original due to a change in threads. I also hadn't realized that the piece is 10 years old.
Tonight I plan on stitching. I am working on the small oval version of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree. I was supposed to have it finished ages ago. I have discovered that it's good to have small projects to work on, particularly when working on much larger pieces. Currently, I am taking two Tony Minieri classes - Footsteps of the Pharoahs and Patterns of the Orient. Both require me to concentrate because they involved counting. So it's good for me to have an alternative.
