I finally completed step 2 on the NYE mystery from Quiltville. I've been working on step 3, which is making 9 patch blocks. I've got my strip sets sew together, so now I just have to get them all cut. I cut up the light/pink/light and found that I need to make another strip set. It seems that either I didn't follow the directions correctly or the number of light strips is off. I haven't cut up the pink/light/pink yet, so maybe I made one too many of those sets. I think I'm going to be one or two short on those sets as well. I hope to have a few made tomorrow, so I can post a pic here.
We are up to 19 cows now. It seems that 4 more moved to our place on Monday. One I knew would be coming, but the other three came as a surprise to me. They seem to be doing okay, but this weather is hard on them. DH gave them some antibiotics last night, so hopefully that will help them to feel better. Its always hard when livestock comes from an auction. You just never know what they may catch or bring home with them.
It started snowing last night and hasn't stopped. They say we have a couple more hours to go. I'm not sure how many inches we have, but I have given up on clearing the driveway. I didn't go anywhere today, so the drive doesn't need to be clean. The DH is at military duty, so I don't have to worry about him trying to get home till tomorrow. My DFIL has already said that he will come take care of it in the morning.
