Winter seems to be back today – if, in fact, we’ve actually had any winter this year. Snow was predicted for this afternoon and, while I ate lunch, I watched it coming in over the water from the Island. So far it is only sticking on the rooftops – at least on the rooftop next door. I suspect if it keeps up at this rate it may stick to the roads and sidewalks later in the day.

I’m glad I got out for my walk this morning. We were going to go out yesterday but it was so windy and cold that we went for a drive instead. Pat needed to drop a couple of guitars off for repair. We seldom take any of the backroads that I’d love to explore but just being out (and in the warmth of the truck) was nice.

I’ve spent quite a lot of time over the past few days on my chickens. I’ve used a few fancier stitches on this block thanks to the new stitch book I purchased. Nothing too fancy but I’m enjoying it – for me the hardest part is settling down to start.

I’ve finished, except for the binding, my March card (just one birthday in March). I thought I might save the binding for my Thursday sewing visit but I think I’ll go ahead and do it now so I can cross it off my list.

I’m making excellent progress on the afghan. There’s another hockey game tonight so I’ll be even closer to a finish.
