March 21, 2022 – Spring
I edited the wrong one!!!! (The Editor went back to my February post, edited and published it, before realizing he was supposed to be looking at this one…sigh…sometimes good help is hard to find!) We are in the midst of spring coming in like a lion – the winds are whipping today with gusts up…
February – Brrrr!
But, baby it’s cold outside!!! We’ve been in the middle of some crazy polar vortex, like the movie The Day After Tomorrow! I don’t usually mind the cold, otherwise, we wouldn’t be spending our winters in Colorado. But this week has been beyond cold. I’m talking about waking up to it being 2 degrees outside…

So that’s what it’s called!!!!!! So, the last couple of weeks I’ve been “hibernating”. It’s what I call getting through the dreary winter months of January and February.

February 13, 2020 – Yarnability, Two Rivers Yarns & Finch Knitting and Sewing Studio
Well, if you bribed me with food!!!! It has been raining here ALL week (not complaining, I could be in the southeast where they are flooding)!
