Goodies in the mail

I had a very nice package waiting for me at the post office today, it is from a dear friend in California and boy she sure sent some nice goodies....I got 4 skeins of yarn, Starlette, that is so very soft and I love the colors, Willow and Soft grey...a little angel, a little aromatherapy set, and a Wonder knitter by Clover...I can't wait to play with the wonder knitter and it will be soon, since I plan on making another felted bag...And the yarn, Hmm I am trying to decide what I am going to make with that...



We took Brooke to the dentist this morning, and come to find out, after an x-ray, is that she is teething, her permanent molar is just below the gum line, and so that is bothering her, not her tooth...Also found out that she has a "cross bite" and when she gets older, she will have to wear braces to correct that...Funny how on numerous occassions I have mentioned the fact to 2 different pediatritions about the fact she does not bite down correctly, and they both have told me that there is nothing wrong...So now I will bring it up to her new pediatrition and see what he says, and if he tells me nothing is wrong, I will have an argument for him...



It has been snowing since noon today, nonstop...The roads are terrible, and they have given up on even plowing them, it is coming down so fast and of course drifting. We had a truck go off the road, right in our yard. It was a little funny, because it was a 4X4 and tried to get out on his own, only to make matters worse, that they had to call a flatbed to get it, I think they messed it up big time. That is what these crazy fools get for thinking just because they have a 4X4 that they can go fly down the roads. Jack, the kids and I went out and had a little snow fun after dinner. I wanted to turn the car around and Jack decided to snow blow the snow that was already out there, that way we can hopefully get out of the driveway in the morning...But just a half hour ago, I went outside to clean off the steps and deck, and you can not even tell where the driveway is again, and I walked through it and I would say that there is at least 6 inches where we did. So I then ventured into the yard where the snow had not been disturbed since it started and it was over the tops of my boots, so I would say that there is about 13 inches of snow, and it is not suppose to stop until the wee hours of the morning (like 3 hours from now)

Jack and I have to make the 38 mile trip into Flint tomorrow morning for Bankruptcy court. We have to be there at 9a.m. and so we will be dropping the kids off at my parents about 7a.m. We have no idea what the roads will be like and even though most of the trip is down the interstate, it is a well known fact that I-69 can be a very trecherous road in bad weather. It sits so high up that it will ice up in a second. I will be taking a project bag with me, so that if we happen to be extremely early, I have something to keep me occupied. I will not be able to take it into the Federal building, because I will not be able to take even my teeny tiny little scissors. Hey I can not even take my cell phone into the building. So I get to leave that in the car and take the chance and pray that no one steals the car. (they can have the car, just not my cell phone) I have also decided that I am not even taking my purse, I will throw my ID in my pocket, that way I don't have to worry about have forbidden articles in it and will not have to even think about leaving it in the car.



Well I think I will hit Post and go back to making some Kitchen Sponges, I want to get a bunch of pairs to put on Etsy.



Hope everyone is safe and staying warm from all this dreadful weather that has hit our country in the past 24 hours...



Have a blessed night..................
