Finally another Finish!

Finally another finish!  My halloween finish..thinking I might turn it into a little pillow.

Had a little party for the munchkin on Saturday night after his accident on Friday.  He was so excited to see everyone and really liked his birthday gifts.  I think he liked his cake even more!

Another week at work..just taking it one week at at a time and this week is mid-year reviews so it will be interesting to see if I can hold my tounge.

It's not possible!

My grandson will be 2 tommorrow!!  It is not possible..lol.  The munchkin is such a little hoot.  He spent the weekend with us and wore me out!  I don't know if I am ready for Logan when he gets here in October...I am sure he will be a little sweetie too.    We will see him again this weekend for his birthday.

Didn't get a lot of stitching done this past week but almost have a small finish.  It is "Flora McSample Boo Sampler" by Lizzie Kate.  Needed something quick, easy and fun to do.

Hope to finish this up tomorrow so I can start on something new.

Not a whole lot more to say...too much going on I don't want the world to know about just yet.

Great Mini-Vacation!

Great mini-vacation..now it's time to go back to work.  Thursday was my birthday, went and paid my birthday present to Gwinnett County for tags for my cars...why can't they do it any other day than my birthday???  Such as the anniversary of the day you bought the car???  What would be the problem with that?  Spent the rest of the day piddling around, took a nap, had a nice dinner then....Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Part 2 at IMAX!  Great Movie..hate to see them end!

Stitched some this weekend..here is the progress on Harried Hare:

I might get it done for Easter next year..lol

Spent Saturday at The Stitch Store..got a few new things and thread and fabric to finish kitting up a couple more projects.

Sunday was yard work all day that we have been putting off for a while.  Got it all done!  Yard is looking better.  Veggie patch is comming right along.  Picked my first tomatoes!

Donna  Feel Better Soon!!!

Panel 2 is done!

Panel 2 of Summer Seascape is done!..YAY  Now on to another WIP..several to pick from...I counted and it is scary..24 WIPS...it is out of control..but oh so much fun!

Sunday was a Car Show and I was so tired when I got home could not move.  The heat really got to all of us.  I think I sweated out every drop of fluid I drank.

We had the munchkin Saturday night and poor old Oscar was on guard duty...they were such a hoot!

He is too big for a porta-crib now so it is a mattress on the floor...my little house doesn't have an extra room for grandkids to spend the night so he sleeps in the living room floor..he was worn out when he went to bed and slept for 12 hours!

Taking Thursday & Friday off...Friday is HARRY POTTER!  I cannot wait..tickets already purchased and I will be at the first showing!    I know....I am a geek and proud of it!

Hope everyone has a great week!

Progress and Memories

Had a great time Tuesday nite at the Stitch Store with the "Hootie Girls"...made me remember running "Which Craft Now?" with my mom and how much fun it was.  I miss it!  Teaching classes, helping people get stuff together for new projects, going to shows and seeing students showing off their work.  I could go on and on.

Almost done with the 2nd panel of the Summer Sescape series.  When this panel is done will put it down for a couple of weeks and work on something else.  So many WIPS calling out to me..Pick Me...Pick Me! 

Finally downloaded photos from our trip to see my dad in Virginia..I always get homesick when I go. This is my dad's house..built by my great-grandparents in 1902.

This is the original family home built in the late 1780's and added on to over the years..

I have great memories of this place!

Well time for work!

New Finish and New Attitude!

Finished Crazy Cat Lady a couple of weeks ago but just took picture of it last nite.  Quick and fun stitch.

It was a nice weekend. Lots of stitching, went to the library and got some stuff to read.  Trying to be smarter about money and time.  Hubby and I decided that it is time for me to get my life back and do things I want to do and not let the car club take up so much of my life.


Working on second panel of Summer Seascape series by Country Cottage.  Have my eye on several new things just coming out.  Hope Terri gets them in soon.  Pulled out an old WIP and will work on it at least 2 nites every week until it is done.  Have decided that this is my new point of attack for WIPS.

Have a great week everyone...looking forward to the 4 day weekend!

Another Finish Soon

The heat has driven me inside more so am getting a lot of stitching done.  Steady progress on Crazy Cat Lady..might even finish it tonight.  Then just have to decide which WIP is next to complete or at least make a big dent in.  Stitch Day at The Stitch Store is saturday and then car show on Sunday...full weekend!  Next weekend is off to Virginia to spend a few days with my Dad for fathers day, can't wait..we really relax when we are up there.  A very small quiet town and  hopefully it will be an escape from the heat!

Here is a pic of the progress, hopefully will show it framed next!
