Hi, Wren!

Hi, Wren - thanks for the comments! I know I've been incommunicado for awhile now, and since I know you don't check email, but you've been checking the blog, I thought I'd say 'hi' here. I'm sending you a letter one of these days - snail mail, I figured that would work. (Wren is one of the original Mootstockers I met online 11 years ago, and lives over in the Sandusky area, where they actually have weather on a regular basis - not only snow like this, but tornados, floods, and I think last year there may have been a hurricane. She has a pack of Shih Tzus who greet you at the door and surround your feet, forcing you to adopt a manner of walking to get into the house that has become known as the Shih Tzu Shuffle. She also inspired me to finally learn to knit.)

Tyler gets a 'snow beard' because he likes to play submarine - he sticks his nose down in the snow till only his eyes and the top of his head are showing, then runs around like he's tracking something. I don't know what he'd be tracking under 16" of snow, but ... he's a dog, what else can I say? Probably some cat that crossed the yard six months ago.

Well, it's Friday - and I promise to have more 'fiber artsy' reports and pictures by the end of the weekend. Things have just seemed to fall apart the last two weekends, for various reasons, but this weekend I swear I'm getting some stuff done ... quilting, working on garb, knitting. I've gotten a lot done on the log cabin blanket, just haven't gotten any new pictures taken.

Speaking of knitting ... I've got some time before I have to get ready for work, I think I'll go knit. A great way to start the day.
