I now have a computer. Number 3 son Anthony lent us enough money to get me one. That's another blessing I have, all of my children are nice people. It is wonderful. Both having my own  working computer again and having such nice sons and daughter, also nice son-in-law Leon. And all these beautiful grandchildren.

These are the finished clues in the mystery quilt, I have to keep everything put away because if the traffic that goes through the dining room where I sew, for another five days I will quilt like crazy on Allatierre and then next Friday I'll be ready for the next clue on En Provence. I am enjoying the process, so far there is nothing new that I haven't done before. It does make me venture a little out of my comfort zone because I haven't used these colors together before, but it is good for me. I am hoping that the next clue will challenge me skill-wise, after all we don't want things too easy do we?

We got our snow, it actually started yesterday but hasn't snowed heavily; it didn't need to. It is still very cold, and I am under the covers with the heating mattress pad on and my feet still are not warmed up yet even though I have heavy socks on. This is nothing new, and I still live through it every year, and it's only--how many more months until spring?
