Drama Teen got a snow day out of it. I'm sure you will be ready to see the sunshine when it finally arrives. I'm ready for a little her, it's been so gloomy. Hope you've gotten in lots of stitching during your snow days.

She keeps a puzzle going either on her kitchen table or on a card table. The latest one "only" has 750 little pieces but to me they all look exactly the same!

The temps don't go below +25C at night, so our air con has been going 24 hours a day for days - very unusual. My sewing room is downstairs too, and by far the coolest room in the house, so that is where I have holed up lately. Amazing to see all that snow that is happening on the other side of the world. Cute jigsaw - I love them too, so totally get your obsession.

But then this week we had two days in the 70's, and now it's in the 40's. Hard to know how to dress these days! It's been gray outside which makes me want to huddle up and be lazy and read a book - but no no no, can't do that!!

Last night there were very high winds (peak 58 mph) and today it got up to 50°. What little snow we had has melted. The trouble with too many snow days is having to make some of them up later. I love jigsaw puzzles, but don't have room to leave one up, so I spend way too much time doing them online at Jigsaw Planet. The ones from the Quilt Show on Fri and Sun can be a challenge.MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307622517630413687.post-82715786719043841222017-01-11T17:32:04.204-07:002017-01-11T17:32:04.204-07:00What's another obsession!

They are not a good fit for boating life since the pieces would slide around in heavy seas :)<br /><br />We're near New Orleans right now, where they say there are four seasons in one week. It's true, too! A few days ago, the temps dropped into the 20s overnight, which is darned uncomfortable in a steel boat. The walls were sweating condensation and the quilt room was too cold to sew because we were at a dock with minimal electrical power to run the heaters night and day. We barely had enough to run the electric blanket to be able to sleep :(<br /><br />But now, four days later, it's in the 60s and up into the 70s for the rest of the week. I'm having a bit of temperature whiplash, LOL! The daily dilemma is how to make the bed...one blanket? Two? Three plus electric?? :)Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307622517630413687.post-60168781680628112222017-01-11T14:17:02.316-07:002017-01-11T14:17:02.316-07:00Don't know how I would handle those snow days....Don't know how I would handle those snow days.

And your puzzle i do understand...i do.. I get a little obsessed with them too..... truth be told..lol Working on the house i have not had the chance to just do a puzzle and i miss them... I never know what to do with them afterwards... do you have a plan to do something with it? Glue it together.. frame it ... hang it on a wall??? It just always breaks my heart a little to break it apart and put it back in the box... <br /><br />Well you might not want to hear about our weather... Arkansas.... the last two days we have been in the 60's..yes 60's .. crazy in January! The wind has been roaring thru our pine trees and yes they do roar....and starting Thurs night we are expecting 4 days of rain which we need very badly...our Beaver Lake is very low and its our drinking water... <br /><br />I've been sketching but not much else creative wise... made a few postcards...working on the house keeps me from doing too much..Enjoy your snow days Val...

It would be cute framed and hanging in your studio.<br /><br />I'm happy to see you are making progress on some WIPs.<br /><br />I work from home so the weather really doesn't affect my daily routine...unless we have one of our infamous summer storms that causes us to lose power.
