Man Cold

This blog is also my place to whine... I am getting a cold. I have been fighting it for a week now but feel like it's winning. I hate that. I just want to stay in bed today. I can't of course because I have a zillion things to accomplish. Tylenol here I come. Hi Ho Hi Ho


Until next time...

I found it ! I found it!

Part of the reason I did not get a whole lot of stitching done yesterday was I could not find my Halloween Rules patterns. This was driving me crazy... Ok the lack of stitching may have also been because of the eating and wine drinking but the misplaced patterns did weigh on my mind. This of course lead to my distracting everyone else with my concerns as to where these patterns were.... I am happy report that I have found them. They were stashed in a "clean up" by the fam in which they were stuck in a drawer where one would never put think to look.We refer this am a MmmJohnnying... enough said.

I will be working on Halloween Rules tonight YAY


Until next time...

Some stitching and more...

I often start a post by apologizing for my complete lack of attention to the blog... today is no different. I have been busy and completely over booked myself this past two weeks. I am hoping next week goes a bit better. If not live and learn.

The Angels came for a day of stitching yesterday and I didn't get a whole lot done ... here's a picture. I got a dismal amount done on Quaker Christmas. I have not been stitching much as work has been a bit crazy and I haven't made much time for me. I am off to the double with Emma and my Mom today and may get a little done later this afternoon.


Until next time...

Ramblings...

We have an L in the family. Maggie got her learners today and begins her driving lessons tomorrow.
I am so pleased for her. We are celebrating her 16th at home with pasta,caesar salad and black forest cake. I am looking for to cooking it for them all.

On the stitching front I made some progress on Quaker Christmas and have been putting a stitch or two in the Halloween Quaker today. I am watching Downton Abbey and it is hard to concentrate on both ...

Until next time...

Home!

The plane was delayed in Seattle and I am so glad to be home now. I have four days off in which I am going to relax and rest. I also am going to unpack, do laundry and watch Downton Abbey as both seasons came while we were away. I also need to organize the three stitching projects I am determined to finish this year. I also would like to sort some clothes out for Value Village. I also would like to try some new recipes out that are quick and kid doable so I am not always cooking. LOL doesn't read very relaxing does it?

On the organization front, one of my New Year's Resolutions was to unpack my garage from our reno. I vowed  to unpack one box a day until they were all unpacked or thrown out. I know there is all kinds of goodies in there and it's time to get organized.

Today will consist visiting with my good friend Todd and some of what is stated above. I have stitching with the Angels tonight so at least I can put needle to cloth at some point today.

I leave this post with a picture of Ben and I in the line up waiting for the epic WWoHP ride. It was so great - scary and fun. More Disney to come when I get organized... LOL


Until next time...

no stitching just running...

Well it's done! Phil and I ran the Disney marathon on Sunday. The goal was for both of us to finish and we did. We have been in Florida for six days now and I am ready for home. Ben is sad to be leaving but I know once he gets back to his own bed he will be happy. I'm exhausted. It's been a great trip! Isn't that how you should feel when you are leaving Disney World? I have got a dismal amount of stitching done and may do some on the plane or I may just sleep we shall see.

Until next time...
