TS Nicole

The kids are off school today due to potential wind gusts over the bus road limit (35 or 40 mph). It looks like a rainy day for us.

Turns out the dog was not too excited to go outside in the rain.... until I put my rain coat on and went out with him. He did doggie zoomies, galloped around the yard, checked on the chickens and then finally did his business. We took him to the pet store last night and got him a new bone, which he is busy chewing on right now. That should keep him busy.

Today will be a game playing day with the kids I think. Domino's and Rumicube will get some attention. Maybe a puzzle will come out of a box as well. Hopefully the power stays on, but I did fill up water containers just in case and still have frozen blocks of ice in the freezer still from Ian. We have a well that runs on electricity. I am enjoying the cooler temps.... it was still in the mid to upper 80's until the storm came through and dropped to the high 60's and low 70's. 

Might there be some sewing as well? We will see.

Have a great Thursday everyone.

Stay safe and hopefully your power won't be interrupted! We are scheduled to just get some rain and a few 40-50 wind gusts--and of course, our propane generator isn't in as yet!! Hello guys--!!:(((

I was able to sew all the blocks for my 2nd web piece this morning and tomorrow I will do the rows...hugs, julierose

I just looked out my window and just now the Sun is out and the sky is blue for the first time in 2 days!!! But it is still really windy out there--we got lots and lots of rain--and lots of beach problems along the ocean they say!! I see that it will hit you as well--it is a wide storm!!
Have fun with the kiddo's--
hugs, di

Your granny squares are adding up Deb and your gorgeous star blocks as well. I can't help but think of my old days whenever I read your words with the toing and froing with lessons,etc. with the kids. Cherish these times when they are so safely under your roof every night. I know you do. I need to think of preparing better for an outage as well. Hope this turns out okay for you.

Hope the day turned out like you expected, with not too crazy wind and rain. Games and puzzles sound like a fun way to pass the time if you have to stay indoors. Your dog sounds like he is a hoot!

I hope you rode out the storm okay. It looks like some of the east coast took a bad hit. ~Jeanne
