I don't know what this "crud" (illness) is that many people have including myself, but I am really tired of coughing, phlegm and just not feeling good. It is not one of the flu's that the flu shot was to help, because my Dad had a flu shot and he has the same thing I have. Now it seems like Mom and Bill are both getting the same "crud". I hope not, but they both are getting something that is not normal.
My last post I thought I was getting better, WRONG!!!! I guess I was just forcing myself to work, but then I ended up stopping all sewing, working on the computer and just doing the general stuff around the house.
With the above said I am hoping the new year will bring us health and I can get back to working on patterns, quilts and making some money again.

Baby it's Cold Outside
Not only is the temperature down by 25 degrees from yesterday, it is snowing and is windy. I took my Dad into town, 18 miles away to see my Mom at the nursing home. I was to go help a friend today, but we cancelled that little trip. When we arrived in town we noticed that the roads were covered with snow, slippery and the first street we went by had an accident. So we just grab a quick breakfast and stopped to see Mom. Then we headed home. We had to detour due to an accident, but we made it without incident.
This is our first snow of the year and I am somewhat in the south. Many people do not know how to drive in the snow and many more just plan don't know how to drive. I am not fooling about that, because daily you need to watch for cars turning into your lane and going at least 15 miles per hour slower then you were going. The same was true today, but they didn't realize that slowing down was more difficult today.
The other problem was the number of pick up trucks that have rear wheel drive, with no weight over the rear tires. Bill, dh, has a pick up with rear wheel drive, but last week he purchased 480 lbs of sand in bags that was placed over his rear axel. So Bill made it home as well as Dad and I. We are glad to be here.
Bill is going to watch sports on his new TV and I am going to sew, because I am so far behind due to being sick.
Maybe I will have some pictures soon.

One Week
It has been one week and I promised myself to write. So here I am again. This past week I worked on projects that I can not show you yet. Maybe in a couple of weeks after I get the OK from the companies I am working for I will show you. Actually I didn't work as much as I had planned, because this cold I have is really taking all my energy out of me. This afternoon I sat down around 3pm and fell asleep. Two hours later when dinner should have been ready I was just waking up. Bill said he checked on me a couple of times because I was not moving. It is not yet 9pm, but I am going to go to bed. Night!
