Even sick, sick, sick, Sophia can still attempt to eat one of the caramel apples
Jurnee and Rusty made for us tonight. Yes,
Jurnee is on the mend. Still coughing a bit, but her aches and fever have been gone since Monday morning. Mild case of H1N1? Or not at all, I just don't know what to think. Definitely flu. I bet the little cutie lost 5 pounds, but she is doing cartwheels tonight.
On Monday it snowed all day...very wet snow, but seriously October 12? It snowed again today, but I hear it should be about 55 degrees here by Sunday. Gotta love the changing seasons in Wisconsin.
And the bear paw...so here's the story, last Thursday night for whatever reason Rusty did not lock the patio door. Now if you know Rusty he is so anal about checking the doors, I often get annoyed. But of course I NEVER check since I KNOW he will. Anyway, when I got up on Friday morning, I noticed the patio door was all steamed up, not typical, so I looked more closely and
hmmm...the inside door was about a foot open wide, and the storm door was shut, not locked. So, I just closed the door and walked away. I made my coffee, turned around and since the condensation on the door was changing, warm and cold, (I am not a chemist, but anyway) I took a double take and there was a paw print on my door. One very definite paw print, and one that sort of slid down the door. The neighbors have two
dachshunds, not their feet, definitely too large for a bird, cat, squirrel, chipmunk, raccoon, turkey, fox or deer. A few people looked at my camera and EXCLAIMED, "that's a bear."
Needless to say, was I just annoyed that my computer got a virus last Thursday night, and I thought I could get rid of it...NOT, but I couldn't blog this:( My computer is saved, some of my more recent photos are not, many of the family photos I did get hard copies of lately...whew! But my new jewelry and stitching photos are gone. So I will be a photographer tomorrow for sure, if
I am feeling better. Yes, the yuck struck me yesterday, not sure how bad I have it yet, as I am still able to function, as long as the coughing is quiet or slow.
And best of all, tomorrow I am finally going to make it (if I feel better) to this little art gallery about 15 miles away, I have been trying to get over there for weeks but stuff keeps happening. I would love to get there if I can though, as it seems like my dear friend Liz is successfully filling the place. It is the
Tomorrow River Gallery and Gifts, check it out if you are ever in the Amherst area!
Finally finished the "Strength" tree from Monster Bubbles. (I tried to link it, but the site is unavailable.) This was a difficult project as the tiny cross stitches almost made me go blind! But I am so glad to be done!
Notice the Jets hat, Rusty's contribution:) The weather has been so beautiful for March in Wisconsin 30-40 degrees and sunny.
Looking out my dining room window this morning- beautiful. No school- yeah a true snow day!
These are just a couple of the new bracelets I have made. The one above can be found at the Tomorrow River Gallery & Gifts, and the bottom one-well-a barter for my friend Becky.
Happy Shoveling everyone!!!!

These are some birds in progress- I will have many tweeting results to show later this week!
It has been snowing, and the girls are so excited! Especially Sophia! She wants to be out in it all of the time! As I recall, she was also like this last year! Hopefully it won't be too cold to play outside! But of course, the snow did melt, and will come and go again a few times probably before we are inundated with the "pretty" white stuff!
I could not get Sophia to look at the camera no matter what I did! But these two girls are beginning to really enjoy each other! It is so fun around here! Jurnee drew her face by herself, and of course Sophia had Daddy's creative hand!
Now I know you will think I am crazy but there was snow falling down like crazy on Monday afternoon, I could not get a photo of it for anything, but if you look really close and imagine, well, you'll see it!
Yesterday the temperature in central Wisconsin was in the 40s (f) tonight, just 24ish hours later, I guess it is something like -1 degree, with a wind chill of -40 degrees expected tonight. Well, that is Wisconsin for you ( or me...hee hee.) But anyway, we had a great time with the girls yesterday outside.
sister's shower in 4 weeks, so I am feeling pretty good about not procrastinating.
