Hi Hi Again!!

Well, hello again to all!  I hope everyone had a great and happy holiday season and life for me has been pretty much the same. I am so pleased to say that my father is still doing well after he was diagnosed 3 years ago with Mesothelioma and we are grateful for each day.

My stitching mojo comes and goes but I don't beat myself up about it. It's hard sometimes bad use I have so many things I want to do but working on them and doing them are usually two different things. I guess we've all been there. I do want to be on here more and I hope to show some WIP's as well.

See you all again and happy stitching!!

Long time no blog!

Well, has it been a while!  Life has been busy but pretty much the same. I have been on a buying binge lately and must now live to be 150 to get most of my goodies done. But then again - isn't that the way of most of us. Only 2 more sleeps until our stitching retreat and sadly, it is the last year at Brentwood on the Beach.  The owner has decided to not do anymore retreats so we are now on the lookout for another place for a getaway.

I will definitely post pictures after our last hoorah so for now..........Happy Stitching!

I'm Out Of Here!!!!

Tomorrow I'm off to our Stitching Retreat at Brentwood on the Beach!  It is always a nice time with an amazing group of women and it's a beautiful place to be!  

I will post pictures when I'm back so see you in a few days and Happy Stitching!!

Happy New Year!!!

Well, Happy New Year everyone!!!  I hope you all rang in 2016 in a fun and safe way!  My husband and I spent the evening with friends of ours who live right behind us - a tradition that that has gone on for many years. We snack on appetizers and watch tv or a movie and then enjoy the countdown.  Always a fun time with these friends and we look forward to it every year. We get together with them on the weekends as well, and New Years is a special treat.

Everything has been going great with myself and my family and I am so positive for 2016 and all of the things it will bring. I know that I will handle any bumps in he road and I have so much support from everywhere I look and that makes it all ok.

I am going to make a small list of projects that I want to do this year and here will be some small projects as well.  I am on holidays for 5 days so that will mean some much needed work on my HAED Wizard of Oz. it has fallen by the wayside with Christmas projects so it must be worked on for a little while.

I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year and Happy Stitching!!

Hellllooooo There!!!

Well, it has been a while since I have last posted and to say there has been much going on would be quite true.  The best news of all is that my father has been told he is in remission from the Stage 4 Mesothelioma that he has!!  We are so over the moon with this great news and both my parents are so happy and thankful for this great news!  It has been a year of ups and downs for us all and we have seemed to weather everything as best as we can.  We are all embracing any good news and are always making sure to enjoy every bit of life that we can!

Any other news seems quite dull after this one and everything else with me has been quite quiet and normal.  I have been getting a little more progress done of my Wizard of Oz, a couple of Halloween ornaments have been whipped up and now I am looking towards getting things stitched and put together for Christmas.  That will be here before any of us can blink - to say the least.

I hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving weekend and I am thankful for everything in my life and for everyone in my life!

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Stitching!!
