My sister sent me this pillow.
The GDs love it!
It massages and heats.
Thanks, Sis!
That heat feels pretty good
on a cold Iowa winter day in the QuadCities!
Today was 23 degrees below average...
normally, 14*F...today, -17*F.

1-20-2019 Super Wolf Blood Moon Tonight!
And my photos don't do it any justice
because I don't have a zoom lens,
but the Venus/Jupiter Conjunction this morning
was STUNNING!!!
I'm hoping for clear skies tonight
so I can see the Super Wold Blood Moon
doing its total lunar eclipse
from 9:30-11:30 p.m.

1-18-2019 Easy Peasy 2.0
This "Easy Peasy 2.0" shawl
is my current project for group knitting
because it's an easy no-brainer...
I can talk and knit at the same time.
I'm just starting to get into the first color change.
Can't wait to see what it looks like when finished!

1-12-2019 Inches
First measurable snowfall (6.5") since
the weekend after Thanksgiving...
I shoveled the first half of the driveway.
When DH got home from work
he used the snowblower on the second half and the sidewalk.
Thanks sweetie!

1-1-2019 Reflection
Today we are receiving and inch or so of rain.
It made for a lovely 'reflection' photograph!
And the New Year is a great time for reflection, yes?
Thought I would do a 3 card spread for the New Year...
1) What to leave in the past
2) Present strength
3) What to look forward to in 2019
1) Negative thoughts, negative emotions, negative self-talk, nightmares
2) Wisdom, insight, intuition, the ability to see the truth in murky/dark situations
3) Transformation, breaking out of old patterns, face fears by taking risks,
burning off the dross for refinement. Purification by fire
creates transformation.
