Jun 3rd Monday Update

I know we all say it but serious....how is it June already?!?! Wow. Slow down 2024!!! Let's see what I was up to last week...

Monday was Memorial Day. So no computer time and no stitching. Too tired from the great weekend. 

Tuesday and Wednesday I worked on Dragon Biscornu by Tiny Modernist. I had a goal of 200 for the month...

After hitting my goal Wednesday it was time for my last new start for May...

Tickled Pink in Stitches posted this beautiful Irish Blessing. When I seen it was a freebie from Herrschners I was like um well I need to do that haha. I mean....Irish! I'm using 32ct Antique White Linen for it and the suggested colors. It did surprise me how many color changes there are but it looks beautiful so I'm okay with it. I added 354 Wed, 78 Thurs, and 108 Friday...



Saturday was June 1st and I decided why not start Yggdrasil. I mean 7 new starts in May just isn't enough haha. 

Using 32ct Lambswool for my Paine Free Crafts like normal. 1 thread over 1 complete X. 



Saturday and Sunday 500 added already from that beautiful upper left framework. Love it!!! Just love how it's right into the design. Just love the overall art. Just love each little X. 

Life. Wednesday Jeremiah was off on an adventure with Dad and Bev. They hadn't went anywhere since August. They had a great time. The 2nd was Fred and my 23rd anniversary so I joked with him about taking Thursday off since Jeremiah would be gone. He took Thursday and Friday off work and we had a great time! We went out to eat a delicious dinner Wednesday together. Thursday after breakfast we loaded up with Spike. Took him to get his nails trimmed, went to a dog park and on a little hike, then went to Fred's favorite cigar bar. They allow dogs and Spike did amazing! So he will definitely go back. Jeremiah got home sometime in the afternoon Thursday. He came home with $175 more than he took. Lucky little turd haha. Bev was tired but really had a great time. Friday Fred and I ran up to Fort Wayne to do some banking and quick grocery trip. It was a nice relaxing day. We watched the rest of Fallout on Prime. 

Saturday we did some work. Time to put away our winter shower house and get the sink back setup...




This time we built it so we was hoping we could just pick it up with the tractor and not have to take each board and sheet of metal apart like last time. Up it went and away it went. Perfect! This coming winter we can just pop it back on and done. Fantastic. We also got a tree cleared that had fallen down in a storm.We are having the band back here at the campground June 15th so we have a lot of stuff to do but Fred has the week before off work. So hopefully it goes as fantastic as this last week and we'll be ready to go in time. Excitement is definitely growing as it gets closer. Bev is going to put off treatment till the week after hopefully. She is telling doc tomorrow so fingers crossed her is okay to delay.

Life just keeps moving along. Smile. Love yourself. Find whatever makes you happy. See ya next week with hopefully more stitching to share. I don't know what's screaming loudest to be stitched because I hear all of them. Me Me Me.

Apr 8th Monday Update

 Hello all. Here we are again another Monday update. Let's see what stitching I did last week...

Monday I worked on the Winter 2024 SAL from Stitchonomy. I did see a photo of the whole 6 part SAL now...
Got 128 added after computer time. I might work on this 1 day a week till finished. Haven't decided. So many pieces are screaming at me haha. 
 
Tuesday I added 783 to Spring Line Up by The Trilogy...
Wednesday it was time for my monthly Halloween Potions by Les Petites Croix De Lucie. Added 310 this time...
Thursday I started my monthly pick for new starts. This time it was Dragon Biscornu by Tiny Modernist. I added 602 for Day 1...
One of the little dragons is all stitched up. Love the way he turned out!!!
 
Friday I picked Grow Together by HAED. Added 259 for Day 24 on it...
Saturday All American by Primrose Cottage was yelling for attention. I added 459 and it got a little more quiet. I just might have to finish this one up soon...
It's fun to stitch on the 25ct Vintage Country Mocha Lugana fabric. Seems to go quickly.

Saturday we went up to Fort Wayne to Shipshewana on the Road. It's a large indoor flea market and we had a really nice time shopping. We ate at a favorite restaurant on the way out of town a hibachi place. Sunday my Grandma had a little lunch gathering. We went over and had a lovely time. Got to see Dad and Bev too. It was a nice visit. Bev has started physical therapy and is doing well. They haven't done any treatments trying to give her time to recover more. This week we will find out more about what their plans are for next treatments. I just hope she can continue to feel better. 

Today was the eclipse. Right here in Wabash we were 96% I think so it was a great view right out in our yard. Fred had to work but was able to see it up there. Honestly I'm glad it's over it's all they've been talking about on TV haha. 

Okay I have to get some things done so I can stitch. I hear so many loud screams from my tote. I wonder what will win this week. Have a wonderful week. Love yourself. Find any reason you can to smile as often as possible.
