* This QOV was donated, as well as 2 kids quilts
* I made a LOT of zip pouches until zipper stash was depleted.
* Made a pleasant drive (2 days) by myself to Indiana to surprise my sister who was making a rest stop in Indiana, on her way from Canada to Florida. She WAS surprised and due to my weight loss and new, long never-previously-seen curly hair, she didn't reognize me! It's been a long time since we last had seen each other.
* Picked up a girlfriend on the way home from Indiana to my home in western Nebraska.
* We also, both picked up SUPAVIRUS from somewhere that was NOT fun, and required one ambulance/hospital trip.
* Friend picked up Covid immediately after flying home to Illinois.
* Lived thru 2 major snow storms.
* Survived 8 days of the first storm, with NO TV, no Wi-fi and sporadic cell phone. Fortunately I didn't lose power, but I WAS rapidly losing courage! Perhaps we had 10-12 inches of snow.
* Started a new quilt during this time named "-20 Degrees and No WiFi". It's currently a WIP on my design floor, blocks almost all made.
* Shoveled (yes, me, at my age!) 4 separate times during the first storm, temps below zero and winds that blew it all back. Obviously, I could not navigate to my usual Wellness Center for needed exercise.
* Replaced a near-dead battery .
* Cancelled my planned Christmas trip to extreme northeast Nebraska due to dangerous cold and snow and numerous road closures into unknown location. It was a blessing that I had NOT taken that Christmas trip with a bad battery.
* Shoveled my walk and sidewalk at least 4 times with second snowfall of 8-10 inches?? , altho a kind "someone" did it several times as well.
* Shoveled my car out twice myself and one time by a kind neighbor with a huge snowblower. I was sorry I had sold my own snowblower.
* Got stuck only one time in the alley, and was miracously shoveled out within minutes by 2 angels with shovels who suddenly appeared out of nowhere! 8-)))
The above list of "what did you do all that time?" is pretty boring but I enjoy my own blog posts and might need a reminder! ...and it's only January.
