Yesterday Storm 2011 arrived in Decatur, GA. 

I was sleep when the first snowflakes arrived; woke

up around midnight & thought it was dusk dawn.

 

Everything was covered in about 4 inches of snow.

I tried to take photos; however, had to wait til daylight.

 

 

This is an arrangement I made around  10:30am EST.

 

Showing off some of my afgans and pillow covers.

 

This is the 1st public share of my crocheting projects.

 

The largest item, took three years to complete.  It is my

son's (Marvin) oversized afgan.  Completed it just in time

for his high school graduation gift :)

Yes, Nuning, three years. My son injured his knee, which 1st motivated me to start his project; we spent many weeks in physical therapy. He healed well; then the injured the other knee a tad over a year later ~~ the 2nd knee injury was more critical than the 1st. He was wheel-chair bound for over a month. No surgery was needed; but again ... many weeks in physical therapy. This is why his afgan is oversized. I made many squares in the three-year time span.

Thank You vectorsmooth, I am on my w

Yes, I still network online. Face-to-face; is where real cash flow in South, GA. Fortunate to have young adults who have lots of associates (music/entertainment/pro-sports/recreation sports/ ...) which helps extend my opportunity for sales.

Mature adults, still like Watkins or Blair Products; young adults like electronic gadgets .... so far, none like publishing on the Internet not even TWEETS. Several have facebook account and will accept friend invitaions; however, only post to their page

Thanks for visitng Bretay, I am crocheting small rainbow pillows(those three round ones atop of the large afghan-right side) to sell at 'flea market' fund-raisers. Snow in South Georgia was an unusual event. We were happy when it snowed on Christmas Day; however, the January snow storm crippled communities across the state. It worked for me, because I network daily and have gained a momentum of making new connections .. via sharing articles I publish on-line :)
