The last couple of weeks I find that I am truly sick of the cold. I don't mind winter, but the bone chilling cold has gone on for such a long time this year. I have been fairly productive though. My little Valentine necklace here was quite the success and I have enjoyed testing it out. It was so bright and happy that I forgot the cold for a bit. I finished another necklace and even made a third, all of which show up on my Etsy site. It is snowing here again and we may get a couple of inches. Enough to cover the old dirty snow and make things look Christmasy again. I even hit the slopes for a couple of hours and was delighted to find that I could still "shush?" with the best of them. I think I may have to try that again tomorrow on the new stuff. New England skiing is not generally for the faint of heart as there tends to be more ice under the snow than snow, if you know what I mean. New England skiing means sharper edges and a helmet as a fashion statement. I have not skied in 3 years so I need a helmet. Everyone else has one and I am the Mom so tell them all to wear them. I suppose I have to practice all the preaching.
Today, as I recuperate from those few runs, I am knitting and staying warm. I have some lovely new beads from a bead swap and will post them here. I am so excited and looking for ideas. A summer shell with beads in the hem may be just what I need to show off these lovely beads.
Who knows?
