Everybody in my class ...

[susandennis]

It was a standing family joke. Mostly my sister but I think my brother and I were guilty, sometimes, too. An appeal argument for anything we were denied was always "But, everyone in my class..." has or does or is going to do X.

And then the adult du jour (usually Mom) would respond "If everyone in your class jumped over a cliff, would you?"

Well, duh. Of course I would. Whadya think, you raised an individual thinker??

I cannot for the life of me remember how/why I started down this road. My brain is having a use it or lose it moment/day/week/year...

I'm soaking my toe again. I think it's feeling a tiny bit better and I want to encourage it in that direction so ... another round of toe swimming.

Oh wait! It was about the snow. Every Seattle person on my Twitter feed is reporting snow. Snow in Capital Hill (2 miles from here). Snow in West Seattle (3 miles as the crow flies). Snow all over... Except... here. As I explained to my mother with every appeal "It's just not fair!!!" Which of course netted "Life's not fair." We worked from a very predictable script in my house

My new swimsuit is ready for elastic and then it will be ready for the pool. I redid the pattern so, hopefully, it will work even better than the others.

5 more soaking minutes then back to the sewing room.

Yes it was the same in my house as in many.All though senice we were in NY it was “if everyone was gonna jump off the Brooklyn Bridge would you!!”

[susandennis]

haha! We never jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge but I think we sold it a lot... "he could sell the Brooklyn Bridge to Oklahoman's." Also igloos to Eskimos.

Yes! Also if someone tells you something hard to believe we say “if you want me to believe that I have a bridge to sell yah...

Is there still a sewing room cam? If so, where can I find it?

You know, cuz everybody in my class is watching you online. ;)

[susandennis]

:)

Not now. Maybe one day again. The camera that was back there was an elcheapo that never worked well anyway. Please pass the word on to everyone in your class.

I've got tiny flakes going on, but nothing is sticking yet.

[susandennis]

We have very few teeny tiny flakes right now. I'm not sure I'm gong to count this as a snow.
