Fabric considerations for the 4th grade 'space' quilt.

Ohhh yeah.

Yes we can!

Can we make it up the hill?

let it snow - Indiana 'Icepocalypse' 2011

We've encountered a spot of bad weather here in central indiana.
Tuesday was mostly sleet with a nice crust of ice equally about an inch or so of the offending white stuff.
After their day with me at work the boys had fun trying to chip the ice off of the deck railing around the house.



I've also got some pictures from today's commute to work to share:


Above is a view of the road in front of our house- not a plow had touched it in about a day and a half.


Here is the main road, but it was more open to the blizzard-like winds we've been having- creating some visability issues. Not too bad, however. I'm holding out for the drive home to see how the drifting has settled in while I was at work today.

My favorite blogging tool

Lauri graciously invited me to contribute here several months ago. Until today, I couldn’t think of anything suitable to post and felt guilty about not participating. So here’s something that might be useful:

I have no way of knowing, but I suspect most people who use Blogger.com for their blogs, compose their posts within the Blogger online software. That’s what I did for several years before I discovered Windows Live Writer.

It comes as part of a suite of free software from Microsoft called Windows Live Essentials and gives me much more control over sizing and placing images and videos. If you’re using a Windows operating system and want to try it, you can check it out here. The suite also includes Windows Live Mail, which makes it a breeze to manage multiple email addresses.
