Still Here

Red Rose Farm Blocks

Thank you for all your concern and prayers.  The tornado sirens went off and my husband and I waited out our time in the basement, but nothing touched down, thank you Lord!  It is rare that we get a tornado in our part of southwest Michigan.  

Current Knitting Project

My yard looks exactly like it did on Monday, before the leaf guy came.  Honestly, I think I got all of the neighbors leaves in my yard too.  I'm thinking the leaf guy knew what the weather forecast was, hmm...

What I'm Reading

I did manage to get some errands done after the "all clear" alert.  Most of the day I spent inside enjoying all of the above.  I made a mean pot of shrimp risotto and watched the food network.  A good, safe day all around.

Blessings,

  9. Crazy weather everywhere. Glad you guys are okay.

    I love the embroidery at the top. I used to do a lot of that. Are those patterns still available?

    We've had high winds here, too and had tornadoes in this area yesterday.
