Home from my ballroom comp. Feet hurt a bit, still need to get some makeup/tan off. But I'm on my couch and watching Yankees. Got a 5th and a 6th in the championship & scholarship divisions.

After many coats, I think I'm as tan as the spray will go. Probably still not dark enough, but considering I started at "glow in the dark" pale, decent for me.

Finished a blanket. Just before it gets too hot to work on. #crochet

Ethernet on my computer wasn't working last night. Just shut it down and figured I'd be fine when I restarted today. Nope. I really don't want to have to troubleshoot this.

My "oil slick" smooth dress for a May 9 showcase has officially started and the bottom of the bodysuit went decently easy.

Just saw a commercial for Visit Sweden with some questionable images. 🧐

Smooth dress I barely started at the beginning of the year is getting put in the back burner as I need to make a different smooth dress for a showcase in May. Trying to figure out if I need to buy more of this particular fabric I got at Joann's (thankfully found it on Etsy).

2.3 magnitude earthquake this morning in Sleepy Hollow, NY. I thought the elevator in my building that's being worked on fell. 🥴

There's been this bird (I believe an American Kestral) flying around all night. It just landed on my window ledge, saw me and fly away again

Sorted my "catch all documents drawer" into piles. Found my TI-89.

I think it finally stopped snowing.

Monday 12:20pm. Still snowing. Weather service says I got 16 inches so far.

Monday 2AM. Still snowing. Wind gusts have picked up. Some snow stuck to my window screen. 8+ inches? Might take another picture before going to bed. If not I'll update when I get up around noon. When it should be over with.

Thunder snow has appeared on the radar.

Monday 12:10am. Snow is starting to not fall through the gaps in the fire escape. Maybe 6 inches on the ground so far?

Sunday 10:20pm. Flakes are larger, wind's picked up. Not sure if you can really see it on the video. Picture in comments.

Sunday 8:15pm. Still lightly snowing. A few inches on the ground.

Sunday: 6:45pm (ish). The snow has started to stick, plows are starting to run.

Just before 3:30pm. Sky is overcast, tiny flurries falling.

Predicted total now up to 16-24. 😅

The calm before the storm. Will probably do periodic updates.

Um... 😬

Snow forecast totals creeping up for Sunday - Monday. Most places saying 8-10". Then there's the map on the right which says I might get 20. 🫤

Have a crazy idea to rewrite the novel I had been working on with a completely different personality for the main character.

Just came across a name for something I was told was "floaters" in my eyes when I was a kid. "Visual snow syndrome". Anyone else constantly have an overlay of snow especially against dark backgrounds or when your eyes are closed? Sometimes they make pictures.

Slight difference. My room is cool. Going to try and get a good night's sleep

Current answer.

How low will it go?

Finally got the temperature in my room decent with the help of a fan. Was just drifting off when a gust of wind rattled my shades. My window was closed...

Finally finished this one after pausing for other patterns and putting it in a time out for a week or so. #crochet

Did a small local speed dating event last night. No mutual matches.

Stolen from my mom's FB page. Clyde, snuggled up in one of my afghans. It was a balmy 22 degrees today.

Ack! I'm supposed to be in pan Friday night, exposed to the elements.

My scrap blanket came out decent, if a lot bigger than I thought it'd be. Picture on the right is what I started with.

The sleet has started.

Apparently when I turned my heat down just a smidge last night, a pipe froze so I've not actually had heat all day.

It's been below freezing for over 24 hours now. Current 15. Put towels over my wall ACs to help with the draft. But my radiators don't even feel like they're on. Might need to self-clean my oven to get the temp up a bit. Thankfully I've crocheted many blankets to help with warmth.

Why would a recruiter send this to someone who lives in NY? Unless you're flying me out there, not happening. "NOTE: This is an onsite role and person should work 9 days in a month Location – Las Vegas, NV" Do they think NY and NV are the same or close because of the alphabet?

Started this Saturday while it was snowing. Finished today in time for it to keep me warm during the blizzard. #crochet

Latest numbers looking like 14".

The predicted snowfall totals for this weekend keep inching up. 🌨️❄️ Originally 1-3 inches now hovering around a foot.

As the present has now been given, I present my crocheted camera. A cute little point and shoot. #crochet

The day after the election, in a moment of rage, I wrote a list of about 20-25 items under the heading "if the following happens, it's all your f*ing fault". About 20 of them are currently occurring/have happened. I'm not happy about being right. 😔

Decided to have a look through my WIP scripts. 3 have several drafts but still need work. 2 I'm probably giving up on. (2 features, 1 pilot) 3 completed 1st drafts with one needing a severe restart. (2 Fs, 1 P) 6 have been started, but I haven't completed a 1st draft. (5 Fs, 1 P) #scriptsky

Looks like I'm going back to the other version that's not as convenient. But this should get approval. If it's not then *throws hands in the air*

Almost 2 weeks of back and forth with new insurance, pharmacies and dr's office and I'm still not approved for a drug that I've been on since last May. The lack of being able to call the office directly due to how the hospital system is now set up is adding to the frustration.

Wrote a little more of my Christmas WIP before heading off to bed. 12 pages so far. #scriptsky

LinkedIn now has games? The heck?

Snowball fight anyone? 🤣

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers
