Monday Update

Happy Valentine's Day. Hoping tomorrow I have time to hop along and find my Valentine blog hop piece. Today was a blur. So I want to get my Monday update posted. Last week I stitched every day on my Springtime piece for the embroidery.com Love 2 Stitch challenge. Here is where I am now with the piece 13 days later...

Tuesday I put another 21 minutes into the July Year of Celebrations piece...

Not much added but progress is progress.

Wednesday Fred took Jeremiah and me down to our cabin. The relaxing time was very needed. Jeremiah went to the man cave meeting Thursday night but it was just family. Still some extended family time was nice. Then Friday morning Dad and Bev came and picked up Jeremiah. They headed north to gamble at Blue Chip casino for the night. They had a blast. Fred came down after work Friday. So I had 8 hours of alone time during the day which NEVER happens. It was a very nice relaxing me day. It was nice to spend the evening with Fred also of course, we had fun plans Saturday. We went to a nice craft sale at a nearby town. Then we went to a new to us restaurant. It was delicious. Then a stop at a cigar shop for Fred. He was happy and I was happy since there was a bar in the shop haha. We hung out for a bit then headed back to our cabin. We were supposed to get Jeremiah back Saturday evening but my Dad and step mom sent us a message they were keeping him another night. Haha. So we rented two scary movies and relaxed even more together. It was wonderful and SOOOO needed. Perfect way to celebrate an early Valentine's day.

Now we are refreshed a ready for the new week ahead. Have a great week. Love yourself.

Your Spring piece is growing nicely, Katie--I bet you'll have it all finished by the time spring truly arrives on March 20th! Sounds like a nice weekend was had by all--always fun to have some extended alone time! Enjoy your week ♥

Spring is coming together nicely, another tempting one for me.
That sounds like you had some lovely quality time together, with some me time thrown in too. The perfect pre-Valentine's way to celebrate!

Sounds like a wonderful Valentines weekend date with your Fred! And a day to yourself - WOW that is a special treat! I used to treasure those days but then I always found something around the house that I need to catch up on but at least it was uninterrupted time!

I love seeing your Spring piece every day!
