The Last Weekend...

I found this giant toadstool in the woods behind our house. It looks like a good place to rest... (if you were a toad). This is the last of my fall-like photos. Winter is definitely upon us here in Vermont. We got our first snowstorm yesterday - the end of the storm that even made its way to Louisiana. I'd say we got about 8" of snow at our place. After work yesterday I was really looking forward to coming home and taking the dog for a walk. She goes nuts in the snow... she jumps into snowbanks, bounces around, and sticks her whole head in the snow if she smells something curious. It is really quite amusing to watch her having so much fun.
This is my last weekend of class. Yipeeeeeee!! This past semester I was taking Anatomy and Physiology II and English Composition. It was an enjoyable semester, although very time consuming, as you can see with my lack of posts for the past month or so. I will be taking my last test tomorrow. It is always a little strange for the first week or so after classes end. I find myself with all of this time on my hands and not really quite sure what to do about it. But, I am looking forward to doing the things that I have been missing. This winter I would like to do some knitting, and I would really like to learn to quilt. The quilting will include learning to sew, because I am pretty much clueless when it comes to operating a sewing machine. I could probably find the "on" button, but that's about it. In addition, my pastels are collecting dust in the spare bedroom. Oh yeah, and I have been itching to go spend an entire day wandering around Barnes and Noble reading books and sipping a fancy coffee...
