Light rain here. 
 

We are going under a Winter Weather advisory at 1 pm. 
Cold and snow. 
We are in the zone to get up to 6 inches. 
No wait 4 inches. 
Um. Really 2 inches. 
 

It really depends which TV channel you listen to on the weather prediction .  
 

Love the consistency. ( Not)

 

Be safe whatever happens.

We celebrated Christmas this weekend with the family.   This is the GKs table.  Finnley sat at our table and Lottie didn't want her pic taken. 

 

The kids were here from the beginning of the day and the last left right before 11pm.

We loved having them.  Lots of fun.   I have to say that when the day was over I had a new favorite Christmas Carol....... Silent Night!  😆 

You are blessed with such a beautiful loving family.

I want to sit at That kid table😊

Finished my last 2 ornaments for this year today while it downpoured outside.  These were the fanciest I did.  For anyone interested check out Ornament Girl.  She has many different patterns, most of which you need to buy, but this was a free one I got to try them out.  May buy one for next year not hard to do once you get the hang of them.

 

 

These are really beautiful. I can barely thread a needle!
April's got talent!😁

To all who have a bad weather prediction.  I hope it will not be as bad as advertised.

Those are so pretty.  You are talented!

Really nasty here too. Our power went out a little while ago. I had planned to spend the day baking and doing laundry. Hopefully, it comes back soon but I know they will have to wait for the winds to calm down some as the utilities can’t do line work if the wind is over 35 mph.

Beautiful, April!  Love them!  Did it take long to make?

 

These were the last of 10 I made, these took about 2 recorded Hallmark movies total so 4 hours for the 2, the first ones definitely took much longer.

Stay safe, we had that weather yesterday.  Never lost power but did have a tornado touch down about 10 miles south.  Every device possible wrnt off with a warning.

No needle required, they are squares of fabric pinned onto a Styrofoam ball.  About 200 pins in each one!

We had your wild weather last night.  We were watching TV and heard a loud bang towards the front of the house.  We looked inside and outside, but couldn't find anything.  I thought something had hit the front porch.  This morning I found it... an expensive bottle of wine we bought as a gift had rolled off a tall chair onto the wood floor.  Thank goodness it didn't break!

Stay warm. The consistency is like Royal's.

@akcruz April, those are so nice.  I remember my mother made similar ornaments except using ribbons and pins around a styrofoam ball.  

 

@Ozark_Kid John, what a lovely picture of your grands!  

 

The weather in SE Michigan is snowy, but we are not supposed to get any accumulations.

Crazy rain & wind here last night & early morning.  Finally calmed down the past hour.  Fortunately never lost power & just a few small branches down & a very soggy yard. 

 

Calm skies should be coming your way in a few hours. Along with colder air. Temps already dropping from a 61 F high this morning to low 30s by tomorrow morning

Whaaat? I'm just a sitting here. I wasn't playing with the Christmas tree while you were busy ignoring me.

We made it through the night.  I was worried about the basement but all good so far🤞. Still raining but warm.  Now we are dealing with the blood pressure issue again.  Charlie felt weak and had stomach issues.  He took his pressure and it was so low.  It goes high then low, no rhyme or reason.  I guess I should be happy with a dry basement🥴

Travel agent just called , we are booked on MSc seaside again in there yacht club, drink package, WiFi and OBC included , they gave us a ten percent discount because I am a veteran, price is fantastic. I am definitely having a good week so far.

That is so frustrating and scary about the blood pressure.  I am glad you didn't have problems in your basement.

Hope Charlie feels better soon. Glad your basement is dry. I have a little seepage but nothing bad yet. Hope it stays that way since I can’t wet vacuum it up.
