The Blizzard of 2010!

I was not kidding when I said we had a blizzard...I've never seen this much snow.  I know some of you have, but we're still amazed!  My hubby shot some footage on our little Flip video camera and edited it into the super fun video below.  I hope you enjoy!

Before I run I wanted to share something pretty cool.  The folks from 3L Adhesives are about to launch something called The Shape of Things to Come and I think you're going to like it. One lucky subscriber is going to win $100.00 in free adhesive if you sign up in February! I am a HUGE fan of their tape runners. Just go to their website and follow the links to the Shape of Things to Come and sign up for the newsletter. That's it! Intriguing isn't it?!

Also thanks to all of the folks out there who have cross posted my blog links.  I really appreciate it!  I hope to have a list for you tomorrow and if I leave anyone out, please let me know so I make sure to get you in there next week.

Until next time...craft on with your bad selves.  Enjoy the video!

The Vast and Powerful Internet

(I love the Jean Patou dress on the left in this picture...I would sport that in a heartbeat!)

I am endlessly amazed by the power of the internet. Today I was reviewing my blog stats and on the first two pages of visitors I had folks from the following countries:

USA
Egypt
UK
Japan
Bulgaria
Ireland
Ukraine
Germany
Switzerland
Sweden
France
Italy
Russian Federation
Australia
New Zealand
India
Turkey
Hungary
Canada

That's just the first two pages of stats!

What's amazing to me is that you can sit at your computer and upload a few pictures and thoughts and post them online and they can reach around the world to people you will never meet. Yet somehow, your thoughts and your work have touched them. It's like sending out little crafty messages in bottles and watching them wash ashore. 

So to all of my readers near and far, I want to say, "Thank you." 

We're in the middle of a blizzard here in my little corner of the world, already buried under at least a foot of snow, we may have almost two more when it's over. I know I've mentioned this before, but I shall repeat that I do not like being cold, I do not like snow and I'm not a fan of winter. I'm feeling the suffocating weight of the winter blues and reminding myself with regularity that spring will come again as it always does. The birds have already started returning and their sweet songs are the harbingers of warmer days that are just around the proverbial corner. 

Think warm thoughts, Madge..

I wonder, gentle reader, what is it like where you are? Is it cold? Is it warm? Is it sunny or rainy or snowy? I'd love to know! Please leave a comment and tell me.

Warmest regards,
Madge
