Today is quiet. At least as quiet as it can be with three year triplets. We are all downstairs. I am doing laundry and they are playing in their kitchen. Even Ben is here playing his XBOX. It is a snow day from school. The weatherman said we may get up to 6 inches. I like the snow. I just don't like being homebound. It also may ice up tonight...not good...so I may have to go stay with my friend Laurie if we loose power. She has a wood burning stove. Gotta keep the kiddies warm! And fed!

I am still trying to get the last of the boxes unpacked. I am still trying to get my studio set up but I keep changing my mind. I want to make the most out of the space and maximize my storage. I may have to find a professional organizer to come help me. All I know is I need it done now!!! I am starting to have withdrawl symptoms. I haven't been able to sew or embroider for weeks now and I am starting to feel bummed out! I just have this NEED to be creative. Seems I have always had that. My mom saysit drove her crazy watching me create and then move onto another project when the first may not have been finished. She just doesn't understand the creative block that sometimes happens or the need to move to something else because and idea just came to me and I need to act on it! I think my quilt friends get it. I know my mixed media friends get it!

I may have to put the boy to work. He's already "bored". Let's see if some manual labor will cure that? I love to watch his face when I put him to work! :) I can hear hime now..."That's not what I meant when I said I wanted something to do!" heheheheheee One day he will learn not to tell me he is bored. Then again maybe not. He is a teenage boy. Right now he only has two neurons firing in his brain. One for basic body functions. I don't know what the other one is for?

Hope everyone has a great day. I'll try to stay warm.
