Stranded

No, not the song.

I don’t want to be the person who talks about really obvious things, but yes everyone, there was wild freezing rain last night. Therefore, I am totally stranded in my house. I was planning to meet a friend today, but highways and back roads are treacherous places right now! I’m going to wait until noon and then see how they are looking. I’m sure ploughs and sanders will have been on the highway already, I’m just worried about the secondary roads. Hmmm…

I actually accomplished things yesterday! I have made a toque for a little girl multiple times and cannot get the thing to fit! But yesterday, I made my most hopeful version yet! Hopefully I’ll get to try it on her today. A little less successful were the slippers. I’ve always been scared to make slippers. However, I promised someone a pair last year and chickened out. So I texted her and asked if she still wanted them. I went for it, going the ballet slipper route. Somehow ended up with…Toms? They’re still cute I think, so hopefully they count!  I’ll add a couple buttons, and they should be perfect. I think they’ll even fit, haha!

In the evening yesterday I finished up some baking for the weekend with a batch of my lemon fudge. I don’t know what it is about that stuff but it is SOOO good and takes like ten minutes to make. Yum. Not sure why I don’t make it more often. Now that I’m thinking about it…

My day today is sort of on hold until the highways decide to smarten up. If they don’t, I’ll likely hole up and wait the day out. However, tomorrow is hair show day!!! If we can all pray that the highways are clear tomorrow morning, that would be wonderful! I have to be at the school, washed and ready, at 8:30am! Which is painfully early for me as it is, not to mention that I’ll have to leave my house at 7:30am. Barf. Hopefully its worth it though. Hopefully someone picks me to do my hair. Hopefully it is as much fun as I’ve been hoping it would be this whole time.

Please clear the roads!
