Lorelei is here

 Picture of Lorelei taken in January of 2010

The trip to meet Jeremy and pick up Lorelei was uneventful...we did stick to the main roads, but soon as we got out of our little town, the roads were clear.  Not a problem anywhere at all.  Roads were clear in Terre Haute.  I don't think other places got as much as we did of that snow.  But I think most other places got more than we did in what we got yesterday and last night.  We might have gotten another inch but that was it.

I have to tell this while it is fresh on my mind....

Last night Papaw was pretending with Lorelei while playing with one of her little houses she has here.  I did not catch the beginning of the conversation but heard Papaw say that maybe Cinderella went hunting.

Lorelei says, "No, she didn't!"

Papaw says, "Girls can hunt..."

Lorelei says, "No, Cinderella doesn't hunt.  I watched a movie about her and she didn't hunt!"

And all the time she is telling him this, she is wagging her finger back and fourth in a negative fashion.  I about cracked up.  Papaw just doesn't watch the right movies, I guess.

Just a little post

We will be passing by this barn after while...on our way to meet Sarah and Lorelei. I took this the last time we went that way.  It is not as close to the road as it appears to be in the photo.  We are going to wait a little bit and let the sun be out a while before heading that way.  But not waiting too late because we are supposed to get 2-3 inches of snow this evening.

Not sure how much time I will have on here...I am sure I will be coloring and who knows what else.  I am sure Lorelei will come with plans of her own.  Right now going outside will not be one of them, though it is supposed to warm up.  As I type this the weather place I go to says it is 12ºF right now.

I need to finish getting dressed and throw some clothes in the dryer....so best be getting off here and getting busy.

A Random 5 post

A random photo for a random post....

It is Random 5 time...I do love this meme.  I don't get everyone visited but I do make a good stab at it.  The only thing is I cannot comment on some Google+ entries.  I don't know why, but I have to set up an account if I want to comment on them, but I don't want an account.

Now for my Random 5.....

1.  I am really, really ready to sit on in the swing and read...wish I had room to move it inside.

2.  It is going to be a while before I can do that...we got more snow.  At least 3 inches...and we are supposed to get more, though how much I don't know.

3.  Does anyone besides me patch jeans?  I do it with a sewing machine for the most part.  I used to always do it by hand.  I can remember my mom patching them and them looking so neat.  I think that is why I patch them....just remember her sitting patiently stitching away.

4. Lorelei is supposed to come this weekend...she wants to come tomorrow but the roads are so slick we don't want to risk getting in a wreck.

5.  I have a few posts that I go back and read every so often.  Most recently were this one and this one from Sandra.  I had Roger read them because I was laughing so hard I couldn't.  Add to that some of the actions he did and it was comedy at its best.
