Thank you everyone for your comments both on the blog and off the blog. It just re-enforces what I was saying yesterday at the end of the first paragraph. I’m not going to stop writing here. It is a good clearing place for my mind. It is feels like I am talking to a bunch of people. Some I have known for a long time, some since I got together with Peter, and some I met here in cyber-space. So thanks again everyone.
It snowed and sleeted and rained yesterday and last night. There is about a 1/2 inch of icy slush with a 1/2 coating of snow. It’s still snowing with a biting wind. This is suppose to stop about midmorning and then it will get up to 40 degrees and melt all the snow and icy yuck. Then maybe we can get on with Spring.
Sometime this weekend I want to get into the city to Macys. The flower festival is on which is really kind of neat but the window display is from The Muppet Wizard of Oz which for me is a must see. I plan to take LOTS of pictures for my archives. Right before I had Caroline, I spent time with the Macy’s Christmas windows which were all Muppet themed and took tons of shots with my digital camera. I need to get a new battery and perhaps a chip to store the images in. I have a rechargeable battery but it has been used so many times it is not holding its charge as well as it did.
Didn’t get as much as I had hoped on the dolls done yesterday. I did finish the pants pattern for my Fairy doll. Today I am visiting with an old friend if the weather permits.
I am grateful to everyone who reads this.
Posted by Kathleen David at March 24, 2005 08:11 AM | TrackBackI tend to hate New York in the winter time. Every time I come up it's always something. It's either windy and freezing, rainy and freezing or snowing and freezing.
I'm from the south. My first time up there I was freezing and I had on a thick coat. This young girl dressed in a miniskirt, and fishnet stockings walks past me like she's warm as toast. I swear I don't understand how women can dress like that, let alone be dressed like that and stay warm.
And then during the height of the "sexual harrassment era" I was standing on 5th Avenue getting an eyeful of short skirted business women. Gorgeous legs everywhere, and I remember thinking , "Those skirts have got to ride up at least two inches when they sit down. Of course they're gonna stare. Men pay big money at clubs to be teased like that."
Oops... veered on topic on that one, didn't I? Sorry.
