That’s right we in the south are being hit with a very cold January! I know y’all in the north laugh and say toughen up – what you have is not cold 
That’s ok, if it wasn’t for the fact that I have been living in central Arkansas for 30 years now I would be laughing with you. I have gotten used to mild winters! I don’t mind a little bit of cold and a little bit of snow – I grew up by Lake Michigan in Wisconsin I know very well what it is like! This is unusual for here.
this is our forecast for the week, it left off Thursday night - it is supposed to get down to about 1 degree!! lets hope that changes
We woke up this morning to another light dusting of snow – not a lot by anyone’s standards. The squirrels thought they needed some food and tried to get into the bird feeder so I threw a bunch of bird seed on the ground for them so they would leave the feeder alone – here they are pigging out.

Today's snow - I haven't even gone outside and it is 2:55 PM - somehow I don't think I will make it outside today it is only 26 degrees and I bet it starts to drop soon.
I will brave the weather tomorrow no matter what the temperature and go to the library to stock up on more books – I am down to re-reading books off my shelves – surely I can find something new tomorrow. Also seeing as I will be out I will run over to the fitness center and get some exercise – I need it as I haven’t been out of the house a lot the last 4 days! But I have gotten more sewing and knitting done. I am down to finishing one sleeve on the sweater – maybe 16 rows more need to be done and then I can put it together. I have more strips sewed and cut to make four patches out of and I also got in an hour of quilting this morning on the Christmas Baltimore Album which I have really neglected since I put in on the quilting frame – I only have one border quilted and so much more to go.
So for those of you who read this how do you feel about the The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims? For $42.95 you have a year’s membership to use the site and access to patterns and quilt shows (tutorials?). How do you like it if you use it — and — is it worth the price? Please leave comments so that others can see what you all think about it too. I am tempted as I like some of the patterns that have been on this site.
