Friday - lots of things happening - snow and Ravelympics

I woke up this morning to snow.  Again. 


Somewhere in this mess is my driveway.  Zachariah has a doctor's appointment at 10:15.  Lovely. 

On the upside, it has stopped snowing, the plows have gone up and down the street (we are blessed . . . our street has a bridge over a major interstate so we get the city plows, the county plows and the state plows).  It has also been salted.  The only issue is getting OUT.

Here is what my backyard looks like.  There is a pool there, somewhere.

The pool is just to the left of the shed.  The garden is just to the right of the shed.







Also, the Olympics start tonight and I have been lining up those things that I am going to be doing for Ravelympics which also begins tonight. 

I want to finish the BellaMittens first.  Here is a pic of the first one.  Note that the tips are missing from the cables.  BUT, you (and I) will happily note that I did tag the cables so that I know that I used a size 7 needle.

See the tag is right there.  The green thing is my row counter.  I am on the 79th row of this mitt and only have about 26 rows on this one and, oh yeah, the other one . . . I guess I should make two.

I am then going to make a hat.  The question is whether I will make Lindsey's hat (she wants a ear-flap hat).  I had made her a scarf last year and have enough yarn to make her a hat.  I had also promised another tobaggon hat to a friend's child.
