~Greetings. The snow and the wind doth blow on this Tuesday morning in Vermont. We had a fresh new layer of snow overnight and now it is softly falling & is swirling about, slamming into the windows on a strong, bitter blustery wind! I shall be stitching the day away by a cozy fire. Wishing you a joy filled day.~

~Joyous Thursday To You~

~The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Good day to you. Oh my but it is unbearably hot here in Vermont. I am praying for relief & ever so thankful for the slow & slight breeze that is somehow making it's way into our home. Even the birds seem wary this morning being abnormally quiet and slow moving.

I am working away in my studio..fans blasting while dreams of snowflakes softly floating past my window dance in my head. Right now I'm working on sheep...Osnaburg.....needle felted....mohair and paper...I've got quite a herd forming :)

Wishing you an absolutely wonderful day! Doreen

Your little sheep sound lovely. Maybe picture them on a snowy hillside! I hope the heat abates for you soon.

Holly Hills Primitives said...

I sure feel for you, it's been very hot in Michigan too. I hear we may have some relief by tomorrow - please! Can't wait to see pictures of your little herd! Have a great weekend and try to stay cool, Dawn

Thistlebrooms said...

Is it anything like 'Were poor little sheep, who've lost our way...Bah bah bah...'(Sing it you'll get it)
Oh well, I tried anyway...
Hope the weather let's up for the both of us...

Always~Marilyn

Doreen said...

Old World Primitives said...

Hello to you and the herd, Doreen! :) The weather is melt-worthy here as well... ugh... I am hoping I'll get some relief from it up in Canada next week. Love the quote in this post too... it's quite appropriate a time for me to read it, I think.

Hugs,
Stephanie

The birds are very wise. Move as little as possible and enjoy any breeze that happens by.
