Stocked up....(again)

First I want to thank all you wonderful ladies for your sweet words in my previous post, I'm feeling better; well at least at the moment. LOL I guess maybe my recent "Stash Enhansment" may have something to do with it...I know I said I was going to stay away from 123 Stitch; but I just can't help myself. With Kenny away working I just need some "therapy" and stash shopping seems to be working just fine..LOL Hayden and I are going to drive down to Texas and pick him up December 19th and take a mini family vacation on the way home. I just put in my request to take off from Dec 18 thru Dec 26 from work and I can't wait. I haven't had a vacation in 2 years. Also you all know I have to enclude a picture of sweet Scarlett; how fast she's growing..

On the stitching front I've been working on "Baby It's Cold Outside", I'm stitching it over 2 with 1 thread; I wasn't sure if I was going to like stitching with 1 thread; but I actually am enjoying myself. And I absolutly love this material Hayden is spending the night with his best friend; I just did dinner dishes and put on "Driving Miss. Daisy" one of my all time favorite movies; and am settling down to stitch a little before bed. This week seemed to go by fast for me; tomorrow is my Friday at work and I can't wait. Hope everyone on the East coast is safe from the awlful weather you've had recently. I'll keep all of you in our prayers.

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.
