It’s hard to tell how much snow we got because of the drifting, but probably only about 4″ I’m guessing. It’s lovely with it’s long blue shadows and diamond sparkles where the sun shines, but it is COLD! I thought about bundling up and going out to take pictures, but staying inside where it is warm won out.

Actually, I have not been out the door since Sunday afternoon when I attended the Topeka Civic Theater’s Christmas show “It’s A Wonderful Life- The Musical”. I was pleasantly surprised, it was better than I expected, better than the movie, but too long!

It’s great quilting weather and since my sewing machine seems to have recovered from the bad thread incident I have made good progress, though I am far from done!

My life this past week has not been very exciting, but this afternoon I will venture forth to do my volunteer hours at the Topeka Art Guild Gallery. It will be good to get out…..

Merry Christmas from our house to yours!

And a prosperous New Year…..

When I called to complain, I said that the least they could do, since they ruined Christmas, was to come and install the set the next day while my husband would be out and thus salvage an element of surprise. Through a series of being put on hold and talking to different people each time we went from “No problem”, to “Impossible!” I finally accepted the offer of a late Friday installation, so imagine my surprise when the phone rang Thursday morning just after my husband left for his appointment – it was a GeekSquad guy saying that even though he was a computer specialist, he would like to come out right now and install the TV. YES! All’s well that ends well.We had the bigger screen in time to watch the Kansas weather turn bad again……..

We’ll have a white Christmas!
