Still no high speed
I won't be able to have this internet problem fixed until Wednesday. Wednesday?!? ::sob:: That's when the service guy comes. So, I am stuck with dial-up until this is repaired. I hate dial-up. I got spoiled with my high speed connection. Now, I am lucky if I connect at 31,600! Eeek!
Weather-wise, it is cold. REALLY cold. Really REALLY cold. The girls and I will be inside, playing games, doing some arts and crafts, and relaxing. I think I might even be catching up on some long awaited crochet projects.
I had stopped crocheting before the holidays. If I have to trace it back to when, I'd say right after Dad died. I don't know why I had stopped. I just didn't feel like crocheting. It didn't feel right for me. I know - weird - but the thought of sitting with a project just made me crazy. I didn't want to do it. I didn't even want to go look at yarn or even buy any yarn. Of course, I owe my mom two crocheted items - a wrap made with black chenille (the thin Lion Brand chenille)and another wrap made using Patons Allure in sapphire.
I'll be popping online to check my email. ::sniffle:: I miss everyone.

Oh, so sorry about the connection. At least you have dial-up!! You could be going through full-blown internet withdrawals had you been cut off cold turkey!
We are twin souls, I do a lot of needlework, too, including needlepoint, cross-stitch, knitting, and crochet, just don't tell anyone...

I cannot imagine trying to live without my broadband at this point. Once you go high-speed, there's no going back.
My kids are jealous of your snowstorm. Living in Alabama, they have yet to experience a real snowstorm. If we get a dusting around here, it's a major event that closes down the schools, but it's not enough to have fun with. We had one snow when my daughter was about 3 or 4 that gave us enough to make a snowman. But our son was an infant at the time, so he's still waiting for his first real snow.
Maybe I'll haul the family up to the mountains one weekend just so they can see some snow.
Stay warm!

Ugh...dial up is the pits. I don't know what I would do if I had to go back to that again.
Stay warm. I'm told it hasn't snowed here since the late 80's. I can't complain about that.

We miss you too. Get up to speed soon.
