I think I'm losing my &*%# mind!!!

Well ladies, not much stitching going on lately; for those of you who are with me in this HELL called "Menapause", I know you fully understand what I'm going thru...it's like another person has taken over the once sweet, patient, caring lady I USE to be..in place of her lately has been this crazy, nasty, short tempered, hateful, boring, walking around like a time bomb woman who I hardly know... I was taken into my bosses office with him and another manager and given a "verbal warning" because I made a girl cry at work..I had to really bite my tongue and tell him "well, if you'd stop hiring these young girls who think them flirting and being sexy WAY beyond their years" I wouldn't be hateful to them....(there's rumors the manager is sleeping with said girl, he's 57 she's 19) Can you say YUCK!!!! I was told I'm not acting like myself and they don't understand it. I told them "try being trapped inside this body and mind"..I find myself thinking of things that aren't even true...This is so unfair to us ladies to have to go thru this hell, and to be told that it's just a "part of life"..well, I refuse to believe this..so I go to the Dr. and tell her what I am feeling and what's going on, she's says it's "Normal" for a lady of "my age (51) and prescribes me a anti-depressant...LOL and that it will probabley take 2 to 4 weeks before it works...Don't they have a miracle pill we can take and feel the effects right away?? Sorry to rant to all you sweet ladies, I do feel better now that I've gotten some off my chest..lol Please let me know that I am not the only one feeling this way...I think I'll go walk around the mall for a while and see if I can shop it off...lol

A little stash...

Ok, I know I said I was going to stay away from 123 Stitch, but I couldn't help it; I wasn't sure if I liked this Turkey Love pattern; I've been looking at it off and on for a while now; and I keep seeing you sweet ladies stitching it and it looks so adorable I just had to break down and get it. I'm glad I did and can't wait to stitch it. I've been working on Delivering Autumn and its sure a fun stitch. I was off work today and went downtown where there are Antique shops & a quilt shop; I was just looking around, it was a beautiful day; a little windy but really nice. I got a few fat quarters of halloween material and a few JABC buttons. Here's Scarlett cleaning out her pumpkin so her daddy could carve it for her. Ashley said she wouldn't put her hands inside; she'd just keep saying "ewwww"..LOL Hope everyone is doing well...

TULSA...

Hope everyones doing well today. I absolutly love the fall weather. I went on a walk today and really enjoyed the leaves and the cooler weather. I started my Delivering Autumn last night. I stitched while watching Dancing w/the Stars..:) Not a lot to say today; think I'm gonna go stitch some..

P.S...

I've been taking pictures to share with everyone while I've been away; I found this Chicken Spaghetti on Pinterest and made it and it's now me and Haydens favorite meal..He was playing with our cat (baby) the other night and it was so cute..and of course here's Miss Scarlett....what else can I say about her..she's getting so big and adorable. Ashley and Torry took Scarlett and had some new family pictures take. Hope everyone is doing well and stitching a lot..

I'm Baaaaacccckk...lol

I've been MIA from blogging for a little over a month now; I just didn't feel like chatting I guess? I looked at my blog and read all your posts everyday. I have no real excuse. I've been busy stitching on my Lizzie Kate Mystery Sampler and just finished stitching on the little buttons, charms and beads this morning; I am going to take it to Hobby Lobby tomorrow to be framed. Then I got my next project all ready to start; I'm going to do Homespun Elegances Delivering Autumn. I've kind of been on a stash "binge" lately..lol That's what happens when I have too much alone time, Kennys still traveling (working)so that means a lot of alone time; and I guess I need to stay off the 123 site..lol

Early Bird...:)

I have to wake Hayden at 6 a.m. to get ready for school and I usually go back to sleep til about 8; but for some unknown reason I couldn't this morning; so I got up and have been busy this morning; I've washed, dried & put away one load of clothes and have the other load in the dryer, coloured my hair, made beds, picked up, cleaned the bathroom and I only need to dust and I think Im gonna put out my fall/halloween decorations today. I decided to take a break; Andy Griffith show is on for the next hour; so I have to watch it..LOL I LOVE Andy & Barney...I don't watch the shows in "color", just the black & white ones w/Barney. I wish I would have grown up in those "days"; life was so slow and simple. It amazes me how the youth of today can't put those stupid cell phones down or they think their missing out on something..

I ordered some stash from Anita from Anita Little Stitches; she's always so quick to get orders out and is such a sweet lady to deal with. I have been working on my LK Mystery Sampler and nothing else for a few weeks now; I got part 3 yesterday and am almost ready to start part 3; hopefully I'll get to it today. That's my plan to stitch all afternoon. :) We'll see....lol

I brought my Sampler home from the fair and have it hanging in the Living Room. :) Kennys doing well; he's in Amarillo, TX now. I think my dryers about to "buzz" so I guess I better go. Hope everyone is getting some of this cooler weather were getting here in Colorado. Today it's suppose to be 93 and tomorrow it's suppose to be 64 and rain. I can't wait for tomorrow; even though it's my "Monday" at work. We've been so slow; Sept. is our slowest month.

ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!

Somethings we never seem to forget from our childhood; like the sound of the Ice Cream Man..LOL I was sitting here tearing out the boarder on my LK mystery sampler..ugh..(one stupid stitch off) and I heard the sound of that ice cream truck..I hurried and went to the door and grabbed my camera to get a picture for you girls; I was a good girl and didn't get any ice cream and believe me the type of day I've had today I could have used a "few"...lol

I discovered last night that I was 1 stitch off on my boarder and it would drive me crazy if I just let it go; so a "rippin I will go"...it's not too much to rip out about 60 stitches I guess.

Hayden went to stay with his step-dad til Monday afternoon and Kennys working so I'm just enjoying a little quiet time; I've been "pinning", I swear I'd get a lot more stitching done if Ashley wouldn't have got me hooked on that Pinterest site..LOL Find me and see all the goodies I have posted. :) (Sharee McNeely) Can you all believe it's already the 1st of September already??? Where did the summer go, hell where did the year go???? 116 days til Christmas my boss informed us in this mornings meeting. I'm ordering my 3rd part of the LK Mystery Sampler tomorrow, it looks cute I can't wait to get it and also a few other "goodies". One of my regular customers at work is a Steeler's fan also ( I'm a HUGE Steelers fan) and she brought me this new "Terrible Towel" into work today...I was so excited!!! There's nothing better than watching my Steelers and stitching on a cold day...I can't wait!!!

Kenny leaves next week for Texas with his job. It's gonna be pretty boring around here without him; I know I'd said a while ago I wanted him to leave and now that he is I'm gonna miss him..I guess we should be careful what we wish for huh?? I swear this "menapause" is about to drive me crazy..lol have a great weekend ladies and stitch something for yourselves...:)
