Aunt Morgan gets bored

Sometimes when Aunt Morgan gets bored she plays games on the computer.  These games sure seem silly to Flat Tatijana.  Aunt Morgan plays the games when the phone wakes her up in the middle of the night.  Sometimes people need her to find coverage for KnowItNow

Aunt Morgan tells me she works for KnowItNow helping children in Ohio and Oregon do their homework.  


 

Playing in the Snowicane

Finally Aunt Morgan let Flat Tatijana go out to play.

 First Flat Tatijana took a walk across the frozen snow.  















Next Flat Tatijana made snow angels!  They were so much fun. For some reason Aunt Morgan refused to lay down in the snow, something about messing up her hairdo.  
 
HELP!!!  HELP!!!  Aunt Morgan had to rescue Flat Tatijana, she sunk into a drift on the porch.  It was very scary and very, very, very cold.  


Aunt Morgan was very worried about Flat Tatijana, she wrapped Flat Tatijana in Great Grandma's favorite scarf to try and get warm before they trudged through the frozen tundra to the house.









After Flat Tatijana was warm, she wanted Aunt Morgan to try and drive to Goodwill. Flat Tatijana really wanted to find MORE sparkly things so Aunt Morgan could sew her new clothes. 
Aunt Morgan took one look at the ice covered van and promptly told Flat Tatijana that they weren't leaving til Aunt Morgan needed Half and Half for her coffee.  

Aunt Morgan kept muttering about the city being out of money and not paying overtime, Flat Tatijana thinks she was annoyed because her road still wasn't plowed.  

More Exploring

""Look what I found!"   Aunt Morgan just told me that this was Great Grandma's favorite flower.  I wish Aunt Morgan had enough to make 2 skirts with this material.  Maybe she will find something like this at Goodwill this weekend.




"Ick, I don't like orange. I hope Aunt Morgan doesn't make skirts for us out of this!  I think I am done exploring for a bit, I hope we get to leave the house this weekend. Aunt Morgan says we have to wait for a snow plow to come down the road.  It is sure deep out there!  I wish we had snow like this in Phoenix."






Flat Tatijana Explores

Since Flat Tatijana was bored because Aunt Morgan said they were NOT going anywhere at all today, she went off to explore.

She found a sewing machine that Aunt Morgan said was Flat Tatijana's Great Grandma's.  Aunt Morgan wants to rewire the motor so she can use it to sew Flat Tatijana new sparkly skirts.

 

Flat Tatijana went wandering around the sewing room.  She found beautiful sparkly material she thinks Aunt Morgan should use to make Flat Maja and Flat Tatijana a skirt.  Aunt Morgan bought the sparkly material at Goodwill.  Aunt Morgan said if it isn't a blizzard tomorrow that maybe they can go to Goodwill to look for more sparkly things.

Snowicane!

Aunt Morgan's phone rang.  The storm is so bad outside that the boss was calling to ask Aunt Morgan to work on the server a bit from home today.  

Flat Tatijana was a bit mad at Aunt Morgan. Aunt Morgan wouldn't take her outside in the snowstorm.   Flat Tatijana tried to convince her it wasn't that bad out because the snow didn't stick to the roof of the garage next door.

Aunt Morgan said the snow was up to the bumper on the van and she was not getting all that snow in her shoes!  Aunt Morgan kept saying snow is very cold.  Flat Tatijana wasn't buying this and really, really, really wanted to go out side and make snow angels!

 Flat Tatijana just can't understand why Aunt Morgan won't go outside to play.  It looks like so much fun.  Flat Tatijana says it must be about 40 degrees outside, she knows she can wear a winter coat and be warm enough.  Come on Aunt Morgan, lets go play!

Aunt Morgan is still saying no, she says the Snowicane is too fierce.

Oh no!!!

The next day Aunt Morgan was getting ready for work and couldn't find Flat Tatijana.  Flat Tatijana stayed home alone. Aunt Morgan thought she was playing hide and seek.  After work, Aunt Morgan looked and looked and looked.  She still couldn't find Flat Tatijana.  

In the middle of the night Aunt Morgan woke up for a phone call.  She went downstairs for a glass of water and she heard Flat Tatijana trying to move around!!!!

Flat Tatijana was on the register trying to stay warm.  




Flat Tatijana couldn't climb Aunt Morgan's steps by herself.  Flat Tatijana thinks that if Aunt Morgan had left the beautiful Olive Green sculpted carpeting on the steps that she might have been able to climb them like a mountain climber!
Finally Flat Tatijana is in bed with Aunt Morgan under the beautiful yellow and green quilt from Aunt Karla.  Whew, what a long day it has been.  Trying to stay and trying to climb all those stairs.  Flat Tatijana is glad to be asleep now.  

Flat Tatijana Comes to Visit

Flat Tatijana came to visit while Aunt Morgan was at work. She tried both doors.  Aunt Morgan found her on the deck trying to come in when Aunt Morgan came home from work.  


 

Aunt Morgan put her on a cabinet in the kitchen to have a look around. Flat Tatijana wasn't tired that night.


Aunt Morgan sure was, she had been to East Liverpool to buy another Treadle Sewing machine.  She wants to put Flat Tatijana's Great Grandma's sewing machine in it.  Unfortunately it will take two men to get it into Aunt Morgan's house. Flat Tatijana can't help lift it.
