Not quite Spring yet!

So its not spring here yet. Late yesterday afternoon and last night we got a little coating of the white stuff. So you know I had to go out and take a few pics. Below is the Little Brat terrier in her Pinky Tuscadero Sweater. She is saying hello to Mommy's penguin.

I had to have that Penguin. And it was half priced at Lowes after Christmas. It is a white-washed color with a little baby in safe keeping. I Just LOVE PENGUINS! Ever since I watched "March of the Penguins" and "Happy Feet" they are some of my favorite birdys!
Don't those flakes look so pretty?
Of course, Miz Kitty Carl, doesn't quite like that cold white stuff. She would much rather sit in her Mom's craft room window and enjoy the snow in the warm comfort of home.
I Love those big pretty eyes looking out at me.
So, as typical of the south, we got a light dusting which was enough to cause some black ice, which was enough to close down all of middle and eastern Tennessee schools. I still have to work on snow days now that I am a 12 month employee. But my driveway and road was pretty icy so I off course went ahead and took the day off. I don't drive on ice,,not worth it.
I really enjoyed the day. I got alot done around the house and of course I got in a Artsy mood. I finished up Daniel's sisters birthday card.
She is a cat lover too. I also made a card for his Mom and made both of them necklaces which I forgot to take pictures of. Lori's is a cat necklace and Flowers for his Mom. Last sunday I worked on some St. Paddy ATCs for a swap that I am in. Here are pictures of them.


I also made a cute little ATC magnet for the hostess(below)
I am also in a "Things with Wings" ATC swap. I made 3 of the ATCs below for this swap.
I made a extra card for Mom too. She is a birdy lover too.
Speaking of Mom. She is doing a little better each and every day. She is still having some bladder issues and had to have a catherer put in night before last as she was not empty her bladder and was having some spasms(ouch,,painful). But all in all she is making alot of improvement. Today I cooked some Barbque chicken breasts, mac n cheese, and spinach and took that to her for dinner tonight. The food at the rehab is so-so,,sometimes its good some times not, and her appetite isn't the best yet. I am sure its from all the meds she takes and lasting effects of anthesia. When I was leaving tonight she told me to please bring her watercolor pencils and some stamped images to her tomorrow afternoon. She said they have "hobby" time during PT. Alot of the women quilt and I guess the men play cards or games. She wanted to do some coloring on some Easter pictures for some up coming ATC swaps she plans on joining when she gets to come home. That just made my day!!! My Art partner is getting better!!! So I went straight over to her house and got all of her supplys together so my Dad could take them to her in the morning. God is Good!!! He is definetly listening to all of the prayers that are being sent to him for her recovery. Thanks to all my wonderful Friends here, words can't express how much you all mean to me. I hope every one is having a wonderful and Artful week.
