Oklahoma Ice Storm

I haven't lost electrical power yet. My lights did dim a while back. So, while I can still function, here's a photo of a crepe myrtle bush outside my back door. Ice can be so damaging, and pretty at the same time.

Friday will definitely be an inside day. I'll stitch. Yea.

January Christmas Challenge Ornament

I joined the 2009 Christmas Challenge this year. My theme I chose for the challenge is deer/reindeer. So at the end of the year I should have 12 ornaments. Here's my first. It is the freebie offered by It's Daffycat. I love this little reindeer and hope to stitch it again before the year is over.

Today was a stay in day since our part of OK is covered in ice. Hopefully we will keep our power here. Some parts of the state are without it.

Here's a close-up of a limb outside my back door. It was taken early this morning. Tonight it is much heavier with ice. What fun.

I also finished the SBEBB Frosty Friends exchange piece today. I must say, it turned out really great. I want it for myself! Hopefully I'll get it in the mail before deadline Saturday. If the streets are clear, I'll be able to make it to the Post Office.
