Dawn Brocco's Life & Design Blog

I love it when it snows just enough to make everything beautiful again, but not so much that it means I gotta go outside and shovel!

So, today I lucked out - just beautiful snow, not work snow!

Which is good, as I am tired. Been working for many days, until 9 pm last night getting a design submission ready so it could go out to a magazine today. It's their 25th Anniversary issue and I was contacted as I used to have many designs in their magazine and on their covers. Should get there by Friday's deadline.

Also have had a showing every day since Saturday. Woulda had one today as well, but it was put off til tomorrow. Because of the snow. Thank you, snow! Not to mention all the usual laundry and cooking.

Woulda had a hard time dealing with all that today. I got up, took my meds and OJ and crawled onto the loveseat, hiding myself under my Lopi afghan.

I love that afghan. Warm, fuzzy, lightweight. I've said it before, but I'll say it again, there's no wool warmer than Icelandic wool. It's not Eco, I know, as it does have to hike here from Iceland, but it is a pure breed. And we need to save specific breeds as we do heirloom (non-hybrid) seeds, which, of course, is done by keeping up a demand for their use.

Back to afghan-land and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. How apropos! Then to play with some mosaic charts later on.
