Cold outside

Just been outside and its coooolllldddd .Took some pictures of it all . Hubby gone out in it to his mothers she is 90 yrs young and her heating is not working so hopefully hell get it fixed for her. I must put a picture of her on this blog site as well. Baked a scone and some fairy cakes, that,ll do for today I really need to get on with my Xmas sewing but as usual I have put the fabric I was going to use for a table runner and place mats for the dining room away somwhere and cant find it. My sewing shed is a mess I really will have to organize it in the new year Yes that will be one of my new year resolutions . I gave up smoking 2 yrs ago before I went to Philadelphia on a quilting tour and a visit to my cousins. But I did have a weak moment at our Eamons wedding but am on track again now only take the very odd one now. I am looking at going back to philly in march for the AQS quilt show in lancaster county but will I manage it. Accomodation is no bother with my daughter having and appartment near Chelsea in manhatten . But I thought there would be a bus going from New york but there dosnt seem to be. I will keep on checking the web sites. Getting a netbook for my xmass so I dont have to surf the net in the dinning room anymore I will be able to keep my eye on Daniel and surf at the same time am Hinting to all the kids about a i phone and an e-reader but they say that I am so crappy at using this new technology that its not worth it and hubby Joe has no interest in comps at all.

SNOWED IN AGAIN

Snowed in again cant get to the main road but plenty of food in and heating on full blast and plenty of Fabric in the shed so everything will be fine. Another day of sewing perhaps or mayby I should bake yes I had better do that. Well yesterday I posted some pics the 1st one is of me and hubby at our 25th wedding anaversary. There is one of our wee Daniel (aged 24yrs) relaxing on the sofa Just after his afternoon nap. the others are my work area and some quilts im working on.. I need to take a full day and aquaint myself with the fuctions of uploading pics and transfering them from my camera to the computer. It is hailstoneing here again. My son Andrew is 21yrs old today so a Happy Birthday to him he is in Galway at art college. My son Eamon and his wife Martina are moving into their new house which they built in donnybate dublin. So this is their 1st Xmass as mr 7 mrs and this will be their 1st xmas in their own home. So the best of luck to them both. Martin my other son and his wife will be home for xmass from Hongkong, they will spend xmass day with her family in tyrone and boxing day here with us. I had better go now and put the oven on if I am to bake something .
