I finished it! I finished it! All it took was one good snow day.
Okay, here’s the terrible thing about this snow day I took. My job (corporate, natch) is considering it an Unexcused Absence in spite of the fact that I asked for a sick day. Because roads covered in snow and (possibly) ice and a million wrecked cars from the idiots who decided to drive today – that’s not a good reason to stay home. Oh, no. One should attempt the drive to work, even though businesses surrounding ours closed their evening shifts. Me, I prefer to play it safe and not risk life, limb or car going to work at 4:00 pm and returning at 9-freaking-thirty at night. Call me crazy. Call me unexcused.
I have a quilt to show for it (just, oh, eight months after the baby was born).

That’s ridiculously unfair! I’m glad you played it safe regardless. My dad sent me a video of cars just careening all over the place.

Even my mom (and you know where SHE works) thought it rediculous – she called in and was told not to come and GOT PAID.
J- Isn’t that nifty? All the links do that, I think. It just happened one day.
