Still catching up.<br>
<br>
I agree Erika, winter has come early. I have a wrap around covered
porch on two sides and garland that goes around the outside railing.
Well, when I put it up, I clean a section of the railing and then
wrap the garland. I need to find a bird deterant because they make a
mess of the railing. I started on the 70 degree day but I need it to
be above 40 degrees to clean the railing. We have been stuck in the
30s for over a week now. The snow we received finally melted today
and it was 44 but I didn't manage to make it out. Snow is coming
again tonight, so I have decided since I managed to get the garland
across the front, I am going to stop there this year.<br>

We\u2019ve already got probably 11 inches last I heard and still coming
down. I can\u2019t even move it off the sidewalk anymore. So the
chances of the snowball is coming to you are pretty slim. And I
have bad aim but it\u2019s good to know you\u2019re ready in case an
unidentified freezing object comes your way. Lol.

<div>Lots of streets in town and bridges are closed because of so
many accidents. You would think people in Wisconsin would know
how to drive in a blizzard. Or let me rephrase that\u2026 No, they
shouldn\u2019t be driving in a blizzard. I am surprised church hasn\u2019t
been canceled yet. I know lots of others have already canceled.
We just called our friend Ken and told him that he wasn\u2019t going
to get in or out of our driveway so we were going to stay home
no matter what the decision finally is.</div>

<div>Winter showed up early. Have a great rest of your weekend
guys.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Well, I\u2019ve gone out and shoveled
already once today. That was just the deck and from the
deck to the driveway. We have a 2 1/2 car driveway so
you can better believe that the snow is falling that
won\u2019t be completed until the snow stops falling and
melts in spring.<o:p></o:p></p>

mohair I used in the first one I made for her,
but it\u2019s still nice. It\u2019s not as soft, probably
because it has more bamboo fiber in it than kid
hair, but on the other hand it doesn\u2019t shed a
