We survived the southern ice storm Pax!!

Power came back on last night and the phones and cable came back on about 30 minutes ago...All we've had is our battery radio and our cell phones which we couldn't always call out on to try and stay in contact with my parents (who live above Atlanta) and Taylor(who lives in Charleston, SC)...We laid awake alot the first night and listened for trees falling...About 4 am I heard it and it kept coming and then it hit the wall of our bedroom...I jumped out of bed and kept saying "Tim, Tim, Tim"...lol...Like he was going to hold the tree up or something... He was grabbing Luke...Very unnerved, but no damage thank goodness...Then about an hour later we heard another in the front and it fell on my vehicle...Thank goodness my alarm didn't start blaring! And thank goodness my sun roof didn't break...We heard reports that Augusta and surrounding areas were the hardest hit with inches of ice...Please be in prayer for all the ones still without power and water...As we went out for a bit yesterday afternoon to try to find a hot meal we saw all the power trucks from all these other states that came to help us and all the men that had worked tirelessly in shifts to help us get power back...Words cannot express how much we appreciate all their endless hours of work!!

We are watching for the big ice storm to arrive here in Augusta, Georgia.....

What is everyone up to on this gorgeous cold Friday??? It is only suppose to get up to 58 here today, but the sun is shining after a very rainy week...I'm busy working at my work table and trying to organize my cabinet and fabric...Pardon the mess!!! I have been looking at the disarray for far too long...

I had strted purchasing some remnant pieces last year to make myself some pillows and the fabric pieces have just laid in a pile...So, I decided it was time to organize it and pick out what was going to be made into pillows and what was going to be used to back my offerings on my selling blog...Now, I have piles every where in the kitchen(out of camera view)...But hopefully it will all be hid away and organized by the end of the day...I'm a bit behind on my new year organizing that i usually do...

I hope you all are having a productive blessed day my friends!
