I stitched a little this morning before I went to work; I just have a little more on the boarder to do and I'll be done w/my Halloween RR. YEA!! Then I can start on the Blackbird Design, "Bluebird". I've been wanting to do this picture for a while now; and bought the pattern Monday on my stash run. I think I'll use Gentle Arts thread, I'm going to make it into a pillow for my mom I think. I'll prob end up doing one for myself as well. I need to get a breadcloth done also by the end of the month for an exchange. I was going to join another RR; but I think I'll just do one at a time; I want to get my Christmas Orns. started early this year. I'm off work tomorrow; I don't think were going to do anything; just get some R&R. Kenny's off work also.

UGH!! I think I have a UTI. I'm going to call my Dr. when the office opens to see if he'll call me in some antibotics without me going in and paying $45 to pee in a cup. LOL I didn't stitch last night; I just have to finish backstitching my Halloween RR and I think I'll stitch a boarder around him also. Then I'm going to stitch something from my stash run Monday; I had such fun; I wish I was rich and could afford to do that every week; but that's prob it for a while. LOL I lost a LOT of my stash 4 years ago in a move. Of course the only boxes missing was my stash; lots of books, material and tons of floss (WDW & Gentle Arts also) I was so sick; I cried. But I'm slowly building it back up again. I lost probley 500 patterns. I played on my blog last night putting all the little blinkies on and found one that said " I love Hayden" that's my grandsons name. LOL I know he'll like that when I show him this summer when he comes to visit us.

STASH!! STASH!! STASH!!

I just got home from my LNS and I was a "Bad Girl" !! LOL I had to get home and "stash it" before Kenny gets home...LOL I had a GREAT time; I went a little over board but heck; I'm worth it.. LOL I work hard and I don't do this much stash shopping but once or twice a year; I usually get one or two books and one or two things of WDW or Gentle Arts; I couldn't pass up the material, it's so expensive thou; I saw this 32 Count Linen and fell in love I don't know what I'll make w/it yet; it's 22x12 and cost me $10.56, I thought it'd be around 5 or 6 dollars. oh well, I love it; and I couldn't resist the Joyous Hearts flob; and I don't know about the "Tis Halloween" I've been looking at it on line at different shops and when I saw it in person; and it was the only copy; I think I "blacked out". LOL I had to buy it. I'll post pictures for you all to see.

Happy Mother's Day

I stitched last night on my Halloween RR; I have to mail out by the 26th; I'll prob. send it early. I love Halloween. I have to work today, it's our busiest day of the year; I'm a waitress; I should make over $100 in 5 hours and I'm taking 1/2 of what I make to my LNS tomorrow. YEA!! So, I hope we are slammed. I called my mom this morning; she was getting ready for church; I haven't heard from my girls yet, Ash's phone is off; so they'll prob be over tonight and who knows about Heather? Me and Kenny are doing very good; it's a little scary actually. LOL I think I'm going to go and stitch on my ghost for about an hour; I need to pick up WDW's colour Trick or Treat to stitch my boarder. My LNS is about 40 mins away. I can't wait to go..

I finally finished Scarlett's picture. I omited one of the little hearts and sewed a small bee button from "JABC". I don't know yet how I'm going to finish it, I may make it into a little pillow? My DD's baby shower isn't til July 17, so I have a little time to decide. I already started my Halloween RR. I'm going to have the ladies stitch a small square (50x50) and sew them into small pillows to put in a Halloween Basket I plan on making to sit on my coffee table. Me and Kenny are both off work today and are going out to pick up my paycheck at 3 and then go to the bank and WalMart so he can get some of his test strips (he's diabetic) and then to Hobby Lobby to get 3799; I can't find mine; isn't that the way it always is? LOL We are getting along great, so hopefully things will fall into place.

I've been working on my blog and reading other blogs all night long; along with watching "Dancing w/the Stars". I think I'm going to go and stitch for a little while before going to bed; I want to finish Scarlett's picture so I can start on my Halloween RR I have to get mailed out by the end of the month along with a bread cloth for an exchange. I want to get started on my Christmas orn. early this year; so I may start on those as well this month. That's what I send my close friends and family each year. Things w/Kenny are getting better; I guess? I was alone for 14 years and I guess it's just going to take some time to get use to someone else living here. We've been living together it'll be a year June 29, so we'll see what happens.

Morning, I need to go get ready for work. (ugh) Monday's are our slowest day and I sure don't want to go. Oh well. I couldn't sleep good last night; was up til about 1 then woke at 6:30 and got up and came in the living room and stitched a little on Scarlett's picture. I have too much on my mind. My DD's hubby is going to talk to an Army Recruter today. He was just laid off his job, I just hope they know what their doing; of course I don't want her to move but I do understand the economy. Maybe I'll reconsider my plan to move to Ohio. I was going to move there this year to spend some time with my mom; but Ash got preg. and that made me stay; but now she's leaving probably I don't have any reason to stay in Colorado. Kenny said he'd move with me if I want. We'll see what happens. Hope everyone is having a great day.
