The Way I Like It

The weather forcast Wednesday Night into Thursday Morning:
A Winter Weather Advisory for a mix of Rain, Sleet, and Snow. Accumulation of 1/2 inch of slush.

This is what I woke to~


It was beautiful!
Snow on everything ... EXCEPT the roads.
Even though I don't have to drive in it, I know many others do.

Yes, that's the way I like it!

The Drop Spindle

Back in November, my daughter celebrated her 16th birthday.
Dear friends gave her this for a gift...




A Drop Spindle with instructional booklet, and 2 bags of roving.
What a treasure!!!
A few years ago, I saw a lady with one of these at a Homeschool Convention. The curiosity of it has been in the back of my mind ever since. And now my daughter gets one for a gift.
Too Cool!!!

Things have been so busy for us lately, we haven't really had a chance to try it out.
But, we are determined to get to it! Hopefully this week!
