The temperature remains bone shattering cold. What should I expect? This is, after all, January in Minnesota.

Next Sunday we have another baptism at church. Yesterday afternoon I really did not want to stitch the name and date on the banner. I just wanted to pull my little cover over my head and go to sleep. I worked out a compromise with myself. I would pull the cover over my head and sleep for a little while and then get up and stitch in the name and date. The compromise worked well.

Today I cut the lining and pinned the banner and lining together. I am ready to sew it together tomorrow.

I think I will read a little and stitch a little this afternoon.
