Boom Boom.. out go the lights.... Last night with all that wind we lost the power. We had just finished dinner and whamo everything went black. Out came the candles and the kerosene lamps and we sat around gabbing till 10 p.m. then I think there wasn't much point in staying up and so we all headed for bed. 1:45 a.m. the lights came back on. It was a quiet night here in the house but outside the wind continued to rage until the wee small hours of the morning at which time everything finally settled down and peace was once more restored in the form of a gentle rain..... well except that the rain was freezing rain. Still after all that wind it was a nice quiet reprieve.
Hubby has been hunting but with no luck. The company has picked up a buffalo and are in the shed gutting and cleaning and quartering the meat for the early drive home tomorrow morning. It has been a pleasant chance to catch up with our company and enjoy a bit of a reunion.
Today the weather is just as drab and grey as it has been and some sun would give a much needed lift to the spirits but the forecast is calling for more of the same as this in the next few days so I expect it will be dull for a few days yet. Sunday afternoon is turning out quiet and peaceful which is good I think. I am needing this peaceful day.
I have been back at the triangle loom and working on the child's poncho. It was a welcome diversion and is getting back into wanting to create. I am also thinking about getting those cards out for round 2 with the jacket commission maybe later tonight I will do that.
Right now I'm off for a lazy Sunday snooze!
