TUSAL and a Finish

March 1st was TUSAL. Time to post that lovely pile of threads. My pile just about matched my last pile already in my container. I squeezed them in and here is how they look now...







Everyone really liked Jeremiah's Lego snowman in my last TUSAL. So I just had to include his little camper in this one.













I also had a finish last night. I started on Clay's Memorial piece Friday. I didn't find any time to stitch on Saturday but was able to get it finished last night. Here is the picture...

The details for the piece.... Pattern is Forever in my Heart by The Sunflower Seed. I used fabric and floss I had on hand to finish. The blue matches Clay's collar that will be added to the framed piece like the model suggests.

Saturday Fred and me ran to Walmart and did some shopping. His bday is Wednesday. We love WWE and they started their own network. So instead of paying $50 for the Pay Per Views every month you pay $9.99 a month. What a HUGE savings for us. Anyway you watch it online. Well I wanted to be able to watch it on our big screen tv like we do now. So we could hook up our laptop to the TV every time or we could buy a Roku and watch it through that. So hubby decided it would make a perfect gift. You pay the one time price for the Roku and we can use it for all the future WWE events. We saved a lot of money even with buying the Roku. I also got him a cake which will probably be gone before his actual birthday haha. Well I hope everyone has a fantastic week. I've been getting a lot done and it feels great.

Oh in the post before this one I mentioned our snow storm. We ended up with 4 inches. At least we didn't have all the wind like we've had with the last storms.

That's a wonderful design, Katie! I just ordered the chart, too! I will put both my dogs' names on it, since they died about a month apart when they were 16 years old. I would like to get it framed with a picture of them together.

I love my Roku! You can also watch movies and TV shows from Netflix for $7.99 a month. If you have HBO on your TV, you can watch HBO-GO and choose any movies or TV shows to watch. There is so much that you can find with the Roku! Have fun!

What a cute finish and a lovely way to remember your much-loved dog. I like the idea of framing his collar along with it.
