Well, happy New Year, all bloggy friends and silent readers. We watched the New Year concert from Vienna, which was lovely but rather sad, with no one in the audience. They did have a Zoom audience though, whose applause was broadcast.
I'm NOT going to start another quilt till I've sorted out the archives, but while the concert was on I did fish out these extremely crazy patches I made last year when I was waiting for instructions from the friends I was about to make quilts for (and before I'd Googled how you're supposed to make crazy patches). I laid them out to cheer myself up. Fabric! I might possibly do something with them but not till... etc.
Then we had the children for the rest of the day, which was nice.
And then we went out for a walk on the nearer golf course. If it's still snowy tomorrow, we might go up to the other one, the hilly and lovely one that we walked on when it was closed during lockdown. Surely golfers don't golf in snow? I don't know why we didn't think of it today. It would be so good to visit it again.
No, we golfers don't golf in the snow, at least not settled snow. We golfed today on a frozen course which caused much hilarity with balls bouncing allover the place but even I draw the line at snow! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWow, hello Lesley! Happy New Year!
DeleteThe snow is beautiful but like you, I walk in it carefully because I don't want a broken body part. I also struggle to un-decorate, although this year I didn't decorate, so it was much easier. I dread reading about the spikes from the holidays, but know they're coming, as well as more and more cases of the ultra contagious Covid. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteNew Year greetings from a fairly silent reader!
ReplyDeleteWe saw the Vienna Concert too.. beautiful music with such a good conductor...they certainly redeemed the Radetzky March for me...having to march into it for grammar school prize presentations, including a morning rehearsing, in the city hall rather put me off it!!
Hello, nice to hear from you. I hope you got some prizes?
DeleteYour weather looks so bracing! After 80 degrees F the other day, when I went from morning being muffled in turtleneck, 2 layers under and warm joggers beneath to afternoon where I couldn't stop peeling those layers off and, only in the interests of decency, replacing them with shorts and my thinnest, most sleeveless top,
ReplyDeleteI almost wish I was there....almost!
80 - too hot!
DeleteAha! I knew you couldn't look away from fabric for very long -- well done! I was going to say that I'd join you in an archive purge challenge, but my heart's not in it. I just want to sew and play with the grandbabies. At least my sewing will be to work on a few old projects, so maybe that can count a little. Happy Happy New Year Sweet Pam!!! (And to Mr. Life too!)
ReplyDeleteI've just been listening to your news. We're not out of the germy woods just yet. I do send you lots of love and best wishes for your east coast New Year. We have a very good friend who could not come home to her NI family over Christmas, and is back to homeschooling her class again now. She's a bit further up your coastline, so maybe she has lots of snow too. Must ask her! I do love seeing your snow - we had one nearly snowy morning that was quickly rained away. But then, as you say, we do need to keep out of hospitals.
ReplyDeleteI deeply dislike undecorating also. I have pared down my holiday decorations a LOT, but taking ornaments off the tree is very time consuming. I now understand why my in-laws barely had a tree when my children were young.
