Well….. it is January, and we do live in Ottawa, so snow is to be expected.
Today, however, we are expecting a winter storm – apparently heavy snow (20 cm) followed by freezing rain. So the school buses are cancelled (to the delight of the children) and we are staying home today. We’ve already lost power once, but it came back reasonably quickly. I’m planning on staying in front of the fire place and finish up two of my knitting projects.
One is the red shawl in Eidos that I was talking about last time, and then the last pair of fingerless mittens from the Seven Fingerless Mittens collection is just about complete. Should be ready to release soon. Maybe I’ll be able to get some good pictures today, if it doesn’t snow too much.

So jealous of your snow. We’ve gotten very little here. One day to put a nice coating on it – but two days later it’s rained and all gone!
Yes, we have lots. And yesterday we got a nice coat of freezing rain to seal the snow in, so now it’s really slippery but white and pretty.
I was really hoping for a snow day today…..but on ottawaschoolbus.com there was a green light so I have to go………reading newspaper instead!
