but not quite ready yet.
I saw a friend had posted some daffodils her kids had just picked for her and she's just up the road. So I walked out back to the patch back there and they are almost ready to bloom. I hope the 14 degrees tonight doesn't hurt them.
I'll be covering the bee hive up tonight. And then on Saturday night, another below 20's night. I am ready for this week to be over!

Some crocheting going on here.
I was bored yesterday so got on you tube and looked up granny squares. Found a really good video, in 4 parts, teaching how to make these pretty sunburst squares. I love them! And fairly easy to make. But will take a lot of yarn.
I have a big bag full of cotton yarn so I am using that. I love working with cotton. I'll see how many I can make. I have a huge cone of the cream color for the border.
And also made some flowers. I love you tube! So much good info there. The big ones are wagon wheel flowers, but I only did the first row of petals. I could not understand the rest to make the back petals. The smaller one is really easy. I made a scarf with a hoodie and it needs some embellishments so made these for it.
I am really liking the free well water. We might just use it til late spring. It's not a deep well so will run out in summer really fast. My husband's good friend said he and his son and a few others can come do the water line and save about $1000. So we will just wait. I hope the city water police don't catch on.

Mmmmmm...
Wow. Just look at all that green. It doesn't even look real to me right now. Right there where the sheep are is just mud today. And old hay all over the mud. And bare tree branches. Just lots of brown. Not a bit of green.
It will look like this again. Soon.
