Yes, we are again in the crazy depths of the freezing tundra. They shut down the schools again, both today and tomorrow. Anymore closings and they start tacking on days at the end of the school year. At this rate the girls will be going to school until July! And I'm not exaggerating (well not much anyway). The thing that is amazing or as my friend in Dallas says, "not natural" is we continue on with our daily lives. It can be -15 with a wind chill of -40 and while they close the schools down, the rest of us continue to find our way to and from work, go to the stores, and the really crazy few? They are jogging (I think running to try and keep their feet from freezing to the pavement) or cross country skiing. We live here, we don't hibernate (I keep lobbying for that at work, so far no takers), we go in and out of buildings and cars.
For those in the Texas area, who are popping in because they found my blog through the DFW Fiber Fest list of vendors, HELLO! I'm so excited about heading back to Dallas for a visit and adding in yarn and 3 days of fiber fumes? Can't get better than that. My girls and I are counting down the days until we get back home. I'm spinning every day as much as I can, between running around through the frozen air, shuttling the girls to and fro with their activities, and working my day job. Each skein I add to my basket makes me smile and hope it brings as much joy to you. We leave in 54 days....but who is really counting....ummmm that would be me!
