Merry Christmas

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas. Brian decided to work to let his co-workers have the day off and be home with there children. So that gives me the time to blog and wish you a Merry Christmas.

It has been very interesting week. On Saturday it started to snow and I was very lucky that the customer service had booked rooms at a hotel room and I was able to stay in one. On Sunday morning I had to be at work at 0430, but since no flights were making it out I didn't have to be there until 0530. This is what I saw when I finally got to my office. The window has a lay a of ice on it and my car had ice and snow all over it.

Sunday I was able to stay again at the hotel and I did not have to drive home and back to work at 0430. I really wanted to go home but I'm glad that I didn't because around 1100 the snow started again and did not stop. So when I got to work on Monday this is what my car looked like. They finally came and plowed our parking lot after small FedEx trucks and hotel vans keep getting stuck in front of our office. Now they just piled the snow taking up parking spots. They were unable to clear it all so when you pull in you look for a spot that does not have high snow drifts.

When I finally made it home on Monday this is what I came home too. This is the walk way up to my front door. The worst part of my drive was getting in and of my house to the main roads. They keep them clear so we all can make to work and back home again. The rain finally showed up yesterday but it is making it worse out there in front of our house. Now we are getting standing water all over the place.

I hope every one is staying save and warm and everyone is having a wonderful Christmas

Snow Snow go away

I'm very thank you that today is my day off and I have the next few days off. I feel really bad for any one that would have to go out and drive in this weather. I was very thankful that on Sunday things were not as bad as today. I had my favorite shift that day 0430 and was glad that the main road were good. I was able to get to work ontime and so did all the flight attendants YAH. When I got home this is what I came home to. Now today is totally different, like the rest of Western Washington it is still snowing here.

Now I have to wait until Saturday night to see what Sunday is like. I get to play supervisor on Sunday and Monday and I get to start at 0430 again. I hope the roads are better then than it is today.

I hope everyone is ready for Christmas. I'm not. I still have to get to the Post Office to get a package out in the mail. I don't think that I will make it today, I hope maybe tomorrow. I finally was able to get pictures to load so I have added a picture of the Christmas tree.

As for the knitting I'm having a problems. I've tried a pattern twice and I can't seem to get going on it. I have the perfect day to try and start knitting. Off to get a pattern and yarn to start a new project. So I will sign off for now everyone stay safe and warm.

try again

Last night I had a new post typed up and was going to add pictures to it and it would not let me add pictures. Then the next thing I know everything that I had typed was gone. I gave up and went on to another websit and played. So here we are at it again.

The first major thing is that I got a pair of sock knitted up and all done. On the road to Denmark are done. I finished them on Thursday as we were out and about. This pair is going to my mother-in-law for part of her Christmas present. I know I can post pictures due to the fact she doesn't know I have a blog. So now that I'm done with that pair I have to think of what to make next and for who.

On Thursday as Brian and I were running around, he was really nice and took me two different yarn stores. The first one we went to is the one I always go to is Renaissance Yarns in Kent. As Brian was parking I noticed that the shop was emptied out and a note on the door. All it said was that they had moved to Kent Station. I was happy to know that they didn't go out of business, but just moved. The second one we went and visited was Yorkshire Yarns in Lakewood. Another wonderful yarn store that carries the sock yarn that I love.

Before we left Thursday I put up our Christmas tree. Now I get to sit here in the dark and look at the tree and be all merry. Not much else has been happening around here. I've been in my room sew away making sock project bags. Maybe one of these day I will start a store on Etsy and sell them and pay for my bad habit of sock yarn and now fabric. Here are a couple that I got done yesterday. Ok you will have to wait until next time it won't let me add any more pictures. So until next time be happy and knit away.
