I am a little excited, we haven't had this much snow in years. Also I have some of the mottled pink fabric next to the cat-print background in a quilt top my mom made me in the early 90s. I love it so much!Amanda Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09588299764301629312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-85159412346129908612021-02-14T20:41:23.630-05:002021-02-14T20:41:23.630-05:00And Lola!And Lola!Margacathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03808752152332112253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-89862936189627859762021-02-14T09:06:51.883-05:002021-02-14T09:06:51.883-05:00Freezing and icy and snowy weather here in Central...Freezing and icy and snowy weather here in Central Texas!!!

They are rubber things you slip on boots and shoes to keep you from falling on the ice. There are springs on the bottom as grips. They work really well. Buy larger than they say,easier to get on and off. I live in the mountains if NY and we get some pretty intense weather. I don’t think we bounce so well as we get older,LOL. Who wants to bounce on ice, anyway.

Worry and anxiety are constantly part of my life now. I need to take hold and not let these feelings control me.

We're due for the ice today in Maryland. Looking forward to seeing the blue scraps shape up. I put a red gingham from a tablecloth as a skinny binding on a quilt, with tiny dark green corners.

Spray on ice on car windows. You can just see the ice melt and loosen from the glass.
