February 18

Well the refinery fire is out and all is quiet again.

I have actually done a little sewing the last few days. got some blocks put together for a baby quilt I started last year. Then added borders to my crazy quilt cats block that was in a round robin. Also did a little sewing on the skirts for my tables that I set my village on. Didn't have time to do it before Christmas so am getting it done so it will be ready for next year.

Better get off to bed, was up early with the explosion this morning and am definitly feeling it. Maybe can post some pics tommorow and some of my new puppy.

Our refinery explosion

Just wanted to post a couple of pics of the smoke plume coming from the refinery explosion that happened in my town about 8:15 this morning. It woke me up and looked over and my fish tank was rocking back and forth. These pics were taken from my bedroom window and we are about 10 miles from the refinery. I took these about an hour ago about 1:00 pm. It's amazing only one person was injured at the refinery. A girl was hurt that was driving by the refinery on the interstate when her car was thrown off the interstate. Lots of windows broken in the area within a mile or 2 of there. I'm sure we will hear more things as time goes by. The smoke is still drifting off to the northwest so we haven't had to deal with that problem here in town although I am sure the little towns of coahoma and Sand Springs are in its direct path.

December 22 Morning

Christmas Myspace Comments
I collapsed today, got my Christmas cards finished at 5:30 this morning. got up at 9:30 to go shopping and then our moving business intefered so we didn't go. Have done most of my shopping online and the rest I can just do locally. Hope to do some baking over the weekend. Something I never seem to have time for. I love to make home made cinnamon and orange rolls for Christmas morning and haven't had a chance for several years. Still have a little housework to do to make the house presentable for guests.

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!

Merry Christmas

Too busy to post

I don't know about the rest of you but I am so busy getting ready for Christmas I don't have time to sit at the computer more than a few seconds to check for important email. Oh well, will be back and post some pics of my decorations or something soon.

Have fun you all, getting ready for the holidays.

Not much new

Have been so busy working on my house and getting through Thanksgiving haven't posted to my blog in a while. Haven't sewed much. Have worked on a little Christmas tree skirt have had for a few years. Got it off a moving job where a lady gave us stuff that was left over in her house along with a bunch of other craft supplies. It is a muted pink and gold and I have been embroidering metallic gold around the gold and pink metallic around the pink. Then have added the acrylic flower beads I like so well to all the flowers on half of it so far, plus beads to all the berries. I have a pink Christmas tree I plan to use it under. Will take pics soon whether I finish it or not.

We got a lot of snow for us Thanksgiving day and a day later. Was really beautiful and enjoyed every minute of it. The kids sure had a good time having snow ball fights and there were snowmen all over town. Everyone took advantage of the rare snow that was enough snow to do something in.
