Finally!!

I finally was able to decorate my blog (somewhat). Did anyone go out Black Friday shopping? NOT ME!! I hate crowds and just dont want to deal with all the rude people out there. I deal with them everyday at work..lol I use to go with Ashley when she was here; she loves to shop, that girl has a shopping problem; she has a problem w/Victorias Secrets "PINK" collection kind of like I have a stitching problem..lol

I didn't finish my ornament last night and I'm so close; me and Kenny watched "Super 8" last night. I liked it..have a great day full of relaxing and stitching...

Driving me Nuts!! & TULSA

I was going to change my blog for Christmas today; but the stupid *!* blogger is messing up; yet again; it won't let me copy or paste on my blog; as you can see; I earased my background because I was going to change it..I just got done trying again and it still won't let me; I've tried using a different mouse; shutting down and restarting; so I guess it's just the blogger messing up again; hopefully it'll be okay tomorrow..I swear I have more trouble than not on this site..

I worked today and we were busier than we are on Mother's Day; which is usually the busiest day of the year; I am a waitress at a nice family restaurant called "The Black-eyed Pea". My sales are usually between $200-400 and today when I got off my sales were $780! I made very good tips so it was well worth it; people were very friendly and thankful we were open. I guess people just don't cook anymore; what I'd give to be at my moms today (I live in Colorado and my family is in Ohio) w/my family. Maybe next year.

I got a little more stash yesterday; I fell in love with this Boughts of Holly design when I saw it and HAD to have it.. Here's my TULSA for this month..I'm almost done with Snow in Love; I will finish it tonight; I may just "finish" some of my ornaments tonight; I'm kind of in the mood to do that; I'm very tired though; my feet are killing me; especially my heels; lately they have really been giving me problems. Hope everyone had a wonderful day w/their families, friends..Ashley posted some pictures of Scarlett eatting her Thanksgiving meal; how I miss those girls.

Goodies...

I switched shifts with my friend; her sisters family came in this weekend and their having their Thanksgiving meal tonight and she asked me if I would trade shifts; I always work the day shift and I told her sure; I'll make more money tonight so I don't mind; I have to get the kids Christmas package sent out next week for them to get it for Christmas..Ashley caught Scarlett playing on her daddys computer; isn't this a cute picture??

I started "Snow in Love" and I heard the mailman leaving something between the screen door & front door and KNEW what it was; so there went my stitching (for now) I LOVE getting new stash and sitting and looking at it; when I get threads I have to post them in my documents; I have spread sheets for each brand: WDW, GA, GA Shaker, CC..that way I don't get too many doubles. LOL Kenny laughs at me for having it but he has no idea howmany I have or he'd really think I have a problem. (which I do)...but, don't we all??

I ordered some of the camel felt to "finish" some of my ornaments with and come beautiful chenille from CC. I have about 4 colours now and hope to get more; I love them. Well, I am going to go back to stitching, I don't have to jump in the shower til 3 and I'm sitting here in my nightgown; Kennys at work and I'm watching all the Barefoot Contessa shows I taped all week. Have a great weekend...

Ya..hoo!!!!

I finished my 2010 LK Snowman tonight while watching the Broncos; I was safe because I'm a Steeler's fan so I was able to focus on my stitching..lol I am not sure how I'm going to finish it yet? I'm going to think about it for a few days. Please excuse the wrinkles; I just finished it..

I made pasta salad w/baked pork for dinner; it was really good and Kenny has enough to take for his lunch tomorrow. Well it's almost midnight and I have to work tomorrow so I better take my behind to bed. Just had to share my finish...:)

Peppermint...:)

I started stitching on Peppermint Twist Saturday night and finished it this morning; I should have ironed it before I attached the button....ugggg..live and learn I guess; I will diffidently stitch this one again; I think I'm going to make one for my mom. I really loved stitching this. I may stitch this "Frosty" ornament next or I found one from Homespun Elegance I may do. I'm really loving this Ornament Challenge Becky is doing; it's really getting me off my butt and stitching. :) Thanks Becky...

My Snowman from LK 2010 is coming along pretty good also. I'm off work today and tomorrow and hope to finish it and I'm going to "finish" it into a ornament. I will have 3 or 4 ornaments to "finish". I'm going to "finish" them at one time; I don't have a table in my craft room yet to be able to "finish" them when I get them stitched.

Now, I haven't quite finished decorating the bedroom so things are kind of everywhere; BUT I had to show you where Kenny is putting his dirty clothes; now do you notice what is sitting right NEXT to the table he's putting his clothes on??? Yes, that is a clothes basket; an EMPTY clothes basket...LOL How many of you go thru this?? LOL Gotta love them thou...Hope everyone is having a great day...and getting lots of stitching done.

A finish & new start..

I finially finished my "All is Calm", I had to frog a few times and had to put it down for a day or two before I threw it..LOL I started stitching this adorable snowman; I got it last year but never stitched it and it's such a fun stitch; I think I'll finish this one in a few days; I love the colours.

I have to get ready for work; not much to say this morning, wish I didn't have to work today; would love to just sit home and stitch all day.. hope everyone is having a good week..

Never stitch and....

Try to watch your football team get their butts kicked..LOL I had to "frog" this picture about 7 times this morning finding all the little mistakes I made watching the Steeler's playing last night (and they lost) :( I still have to restitch the tree. LOL

We were off work today and went and did all our errand running and grocery shopping done; so tomorrow we can just lay around the house and be lazy (inbetween the laundry loads). We are suppose to get 2-6" of snow (it changes hourly the amount were suppose to get). Scarlett is learing where her nose, ears & eyes are...here she is pointing to her "eyyyyyeeeee". LOL

Kenny made some killer pork chops & mashed potatoes for dinner; I'm going to make my Grandma's homemade beef soup tomorrow; it has to cook all day on the stove and it's going to be the perfect day for it. I hope to finish "All is Calm" either tonight or tomorrow and start "Snow in Love". I'm going to stitch about 3 ornaments before I "finish" them. I still haven't unpacked all my "goodies" from the move. LOL I need some new storage bins and haven't gotten them yet. I don't know exactly how I want to do my stitching room yet? I know I need somekind of table. I guess I'll know it when I see it. Hope everyone is having a great week so far...
