The winter sick.

Cold enough for coats

Hello there Blogger.

We always catch something, or several somethings this time of year, just as the cold starts to hit. So far Quinn, Genna and Cody have caught what ever it is. Genna has bonus points from her adventure with 'head foot and mouth'.

The current plan is to subsist entirely on chicken noodle soup and vitamin C. It's not been entirely successful.

We are also watching Lady, Thax's canine companion, for the weekend.  She is old enough that that the hairs on her face and snout have gone gray. She doesn't quite know how to handle the smallish humans that live here.

She does love the scritches though.

I've been working on this insane appliqued tunic, that just cannot be less rock and roll. All the symbols are on fire, and the phoenix that is on the chest will be playing a purple flying V guitar.

It will also take forever to finish, my sewing machine was so frighted by the prospect that it promptly broke right as I started. Had to take to the shop.

The phoenix its self is several different colors, and I have the pieces cut out, but nothing attached yet. It's the most complicated thing I've tried since I made that tunic for Kelly's master Rose.

Today I've got Genna and Quinn bundled on the couch, and some prep work to do for Holiday Tea tomorrow. I'm making little bags for the snow globes that will act as the hostess gifts for Donna's Table.  Back to the grind.
