Coldness and kolam (again)

Yesterday we had snow - blizard-like - and this morning, the sun made everything look crisp, bright and very beautiful.
... two days ago, spring was in full bloom, it was 7 degrees cel and the sun was warm. I cut back the rose on my balcony, and as beautiful the snow and recent frost may be for my eyes to look at, it's leathal to my little cut-back rose. I hold my breath ...

I almost finished the pillow - short of the pearls

  5. I can't wait for spring to come too! I miss planting flowers...
    Yeah, I wasn't feeling very well for awhile. But I've decide I am just not gonna dwell at it. I am going to start sleep earlier and have a more normal schedule and hopeful I will feel better soon. : )
