The BOY and Peek-a-boo.

snowing outside /my reflection

see those chunks floating


It is really higher than what this picture shows.

Snow Day! No yoga and all the schools are closed again..I love it but I do not have to do the shoveling- the poor boy does...

Started my day off with my mid-month Dish cloth Kal http://monthlydishclothkal.blogspot.com/

The ice on the Delaware in front of my house is breaking up and piles up like an ice mountain or glacier at the eddy or bend in the river where it gets narrow. ( the is why it is called Narrowsburg, Ny on the the other side) These photos do not do it justice.Everyone is stopping as they go over the bridge to look at the site.

Angora/ lambs wool striped scarf

Yikes.... this is a terrible picture with all the yarn dangling and the color way off.
While at the Cat Bordhi retreat I purchased some angora/lambs wool from Shadyside Studio Wools. This wool is so soft and hand dyed in pretty pale colors. It has spots where is is pure white and thick knobby stuff. I do not spin do not sure what you call them. I like them when I hit one of the sections. Once in a while I pick out things that look like rabbit poop or hay . No matter if it is poop- this is my all time favorite yarn ! .

St Patrick's Day

The Yulan St.Patrick's Day parade took place last Sunday. This parade is very different than any parade I have ever attended. I am not a city person but this is definitely a country type of parade with every fire truck and local business in the parade. It was a riot.. I took pictures.

I l ost a pound this week. It is going very slow --but at least I am losing rather than gaining.. Maybe with this spring weather teasing me I will get more energy to get out and walk.
