Day 4

Day 4 of no power. We have heard that it may be until Friday when we get power back. We have a woodstove to warm us, although it is not terribly cold here, we have water and a lantern and I have a Kindle and a droid phone from which to blog from so it's not too bad.

One thing that does not need power is my Go cutter so I have been cutting fabric and have managed to cut a quilt out of fabric I had. A stash is a wonderful thing. I may end up at my daughter's tomorrow to sew. This quilt will be destined for our lake camp. Those summer days seem so far off. Sigh.......

    Wow, that is a long time to go without power. (I am thinking of freezer stuff) Hope it gets back soon.

    So sorry about you situation. We got snow here in Utah but not enough to do any damage. Hope you are reconnected soon.

    Thank you for the update! I've been wondering and praying for those in the northeast. We have outtages in my neighborhood sometimes but never as long as yours is going on. Hang in there! and yes, your stash is a wonderfully thing :-)

    Chris glad you were able to cut a quilt out. We just got our power back today at 3:19 pm, after six days. It feels great to sit in a warm house, and be able to turn a light on when walking into a room! Hope your power comes on soon.

I pray that risen from the dead,
In glory I will stand,
A crown perhaps upon my head,
And a needle in my hand.
