The snow has been falling all over the place from Oregon to Chicago to the East Coast…will I get home to New York before the snow affects my travels? Of all the years that I have been flying back and forth at the heart of the holidays, I have only been challenged once getting to my destination. Thanks to the determination of not spending Christmas Eve in an airport, I used the rails to make it there. An adventure that I will not soon forget.

The cats are supervising my preliminary packing as they cat nap in and around my suitcases!

I just need to figure out what stitching to take with me. I am thinking that between the cookie baking and all the entertaining that is scheduled, that there will be very little time for stitching.

I usually try not to add the clothes till the last minute so that my clothes don’t arrive covered in cat hair. AlleyCat didn’t even wait till I folded my sweatshirt before she curled up.
