Enough Already......

We had more snow! Yippee!  That was a bit of sarcasm. Actually the snow is not so bad, if you don't count the fact that our road is last on the "to be plowed list". Here is what happens if you let your insurance lapse and you can't get your vehicle out on the road regularly.

We decided it was high time to clear the snow off the roof of the trailer.

I am surprised the roof hasn't caved in yet.
This proved to much more strenuous than I anticipated.   Luckily for me Terry broke the second rake and now I am taking a break and making some lunch. Much less strenuous.

At least the view is good from up here on the roof!

Fire Flowers and Not-So-Happy Fowl

 Well...I pulled out some wool roving and spent an hour or two playing and this is what happened. A flower was born. Not quite finished I don't think. Stamens perhaps or even a tiny fairy nestled in the depths of the petals.



Fire Lily


My youngest son was wanting some licensed merchandise...
which I do try to discourage as much as possible. I decided to indulge him in my own way. Hence the Not-so-happy Fowl.

Well that was fun.

Weekend Wandering






I am gathering momentum to get to work on some smaller projects that my smaller space will allow. I have located some supplies in our mountains of boxes, and picked up some new felting needles. Lets see what happens.
