Not sure where you are Nancy C. but here in North Carolina we just aren't used to this many days of freezing cold weather, especially this early in the winter!<br /><br />No snow, though. Snow would be fun since everything would close down and I could stay home and weave...Sharon Schulzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07697870972304497221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537158321255176863.post-20064554846211046902010-01-05T19:05:58.224-08:002010-01-05T19:05:58.224-08:00I feel your pain.

I had laundry in there that I did on Friday. When I took it out to put it in the dryer it was frozen!<br />My pool filter system is, pardon my language, f*****d bigtime.<br />We just are not ready for this kind of cold down here.Nancy Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01713208914845202057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537158321255176863.post-6504012260652578662010-01-05T19:03:04.005-08:002010-01-05T19:03:04.005-08:00Looks like the "Wagon Wheels" pattern???...Looks like the "Wagon Wheels" pattern?????Nancy Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01713208914845202057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537158321255176863.post-72617238343122565172010-01-05T12:19:00.015-08:002010-01-05T12:19:00.015-08:00Well, that was my intention, but you know - after ...Well, that was my intention, but you know - after the cloth comes off I may change my mind. :)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />LauraLaura Fryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06599868570350256631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537158321255176863.post-7076513416570672502010-01-05T11:25:17.946-08:002010-01-05T11:25:17.946-08:00Well, once again, I think I like the back of somet...Well, once again, I think I like the back of something better than the front.
