If it looks like a lamb...


 white, soft, kinda billowy, it may indeed be a lamb.  But if it starts to roar...


and it is March,  it very well could be a lion.

We are having weather.   It isn't a full fledged storm yet but it is a whiteout and very slippery.  I had to go out and I'm glad it was brief.  I am home but my car isn't.  It was a bit hair raising making the return trip.  The turn at the end of the driveway is obscure; everything is white.  I know there is a sharp drop-off and deep ditch on each side of the narrow access.  But I sighed too soon after the perilous crossing and the car did not respond to the steering wheel for the 90 degree turn that immediately follows.  I am slightly stuck.  I say slightly stuck because the front wheel is down and I am sure the Rooster would have crowed a bit and ...  Well, actually the Rooster wouldn't have found himself is such a predicament. lol  Anyway, I know when to cease spinning my wheels. He and my youngest chick can bring it on into the yard when they finish work.


But I am stuck.  And quite disgusted about it actually.  I had such a rush to get ready for my weekend away.  I did not anticipate getting everything accomplished, but I did.  This proves I can do it.  But on returning I felt again I had so much to do, errands/appointments on every single day interfered; but I didn't have that deadline so now I'm stuck.  Immobilized.

I had time to think as I walked down the driveway and back to an already late start on my day.  Maybe I should just throw a load of laundry in,  grab a good book and try again next week!



Many blogs have Friday Finishes.  I think I'd be happy with one finished thing.  So of all the things I have started and left undone, what could I finish on this Friday???  Besides a book, I mean!

Shaking things up



I had a tasty yogurt smoothie this morning that was much smoother than yesterday's sour cream one. lol

Then I tackled the freezer compartment of the fridge which should have been done ages ago.

Then I found 2 more skirts to hem and 1 to mend. Done! yippee skippy!


I had removed the offending row from my convergence yesterday and it is pin basted. I wonder if I should sprinkle a few of those large floral motifs around after I get the straight grid lines done?



What this all means is that I am procrastinating about the MQing that I really must get done, at least the straight line stitching for this week.


But I do actually get a very lot done when I'm doing everything but what I'm supposed to be doing. vbsigh
