July 17th Monday Update

Hey everyone. Another Monday. Hope everyone reading this is doing well. Let's see what I did last week...

I've been working on Book Dragon....imagine that haha. I love it!!! I'm still really enjoying going across the whole page when stitching and I swear I'm making great progress so I'll stick with it. I worked on it 4 days last week 6 days total on it now...

1,000 stitches left and the first page is finished already!

Thursday I had another new start...

From a Just Cross Stitch Magazine. It was funny how big it felt to be stitching on 14ct Aida again haha. 

Monday night in the middle of the night we woke up to a horrible loud sound. Like someone was trying to break in the back wall of our cabin. Then I realized it was our AC unit. I was thinking what in the world. Someone was stealing our AC unit?!? Fred went around to the back and nothing. I came out and found...

a very scared baby raccoon. Evidently he had climbed up a tree and got on our roof and was trying to find his way back down. Poor thing was so scared. So I pointed and talked to it real kind. Go over this way to the tree. We came back inside and luckily it found it's way down. We love the coons around here. We put out food and they come visit every night. Just hopefully they don't climb on our AC again haha. 

I also realized I haven't shared a photo of Mr Spike lately...

He's still loving life. He doesn't mind the coons but for some reason really doesn't like possums when they come by. Too funny.

There is a lot going on. But I'm trying to remember what I tell everyone....Smile. Love yourself. Be strong. This world is just a crazy place and everywhere you look seems like something is going wrong. Find your happiness. Hugs to all who need it.
