My 1st day walking upright again (after the plague)

What I needed to do for the upcoming shows (one tomorrow):


What I did instead:

Yay Sunshine!
Still don't feel that great but vitamin D is a good start.

Watch Armegeddon unfold in my neighborhood

NOAA forecasts better than it has actually been

Still snowing...

Well, Sunday night here.

I Heart Rummage was cancelled.

It was the big Christmas show I was counting on. The roads were just ridiculous. Overall, it's a good thing that it was cancelled. If vendors couldn't make it there, how would shoppers. My 12" ruler nearly disappeared in the front grass, I mean, snow, where the grass should be. Best we all stayed home.

Here is my street Sunday evening at 5:30pm

Yes, that is a bit of a hill you see. It's an intersting climb if I can get a car out of the snow drifts or garage from last nights snowfall.

Here's the front door.

I had the bright idea about 4:00 to shovel the front walk so when/if Joel and the babies come to see me tomorrow they have a place to stomp off their feet besides inside Grandma's house.

Umm, yeah. It's already an inch deep where I shoveled an hour and a half ago, and still snowing.

Come on, really?

I mean, I'm already convinced we're beginning Armageddon but via the Ice Age? Really?
There has to be a better way to go.


The top is Thursday morning (which I thought was awful) the roads getting out of the neighborhood were impassable for a 2 wheel drive.


But look at this. Now this here is Saturday at 5pm.

I know the pictures are dark.
That's 'cause there's NO LIGHT.
It's STILL SNOWING!

It's nice and quiet, pretty and all... for about 3 days. Now, it just plain awful. It's worn out it's welcome.

Places to go, things to do.
My tires haven't seen pavement since Tuesday but they still ventured out on Wednesday. Scary. They are safely in the garage until we get a bit of rain to make this all go away.

Big Weekend! 11-1 / 11-2

Im a bad blogger. What can I say?
It's holiday time and I've been working long and steady to build up inventory, take pictures, post a few things for sale in my stores here and there, fill wholesale orders, fill up the B&M stores I sell and consign at... Then there's the regular "life" stuff. Whew! I'm tired just thinking about it.

This weekend is a double-header:

Local Bounce

...and I'm first in the feature!

it's coming, it's coming

This event is my favorite!

Quarterly the Low Income Housing Institute in Seattle's Belltown area throws a big Market/Party type event. Lots of artisans, crafters, vintage sellers, etc. You can have your bike repaired, hair cut, get a massage and acupuncture, have tailoring done, get a tattoo, have your face painted, and more. After 6pm, it's music, food and booze. How could you possibly beat this combo???

If you're anywhere near the Seattle area, this is a Must-Do!
