Happy Mother's Day Y'all!

Wishing everyone near and far that they have a wonderful Mother's Day! We have one of the toughest jobs out there, and yet we willing do it with all our hearts every minutes and every breath of our life! I love my Momma and thank her for all she has provided for me to become the woman I am today!

Now y'all know me, I am such a slacker about finishing one project before I start another. Yep, I started LK Christmas Rules! Maybe I might get it done in time for Christmas! lol

I'm probably gonna go rest in a bit! It stinks having a spring cold! I haven't been sick since Jan./Feb. I think, can't remember. My throat is so scratchy feeling! Ugh!

We are down to 15 days left to school! Yippee!

Later gators!

Everyone should have gotten the email............

The Stitch Store will be closed tomorrow, so no stitch-in! I've either called or sent everyone a text that there will not be any stitch-in tomorrow night!

Also, everyone please keep Liz's nephew in your prayers, he was in a bad car wreck and is in critical condition per Liz's text to me! So shout out to the Lord for healing!

Hoping everyone had a great Easter holiday! I know I did, my parents and brother ate dinner with me and my crew. John smoked a turkey and it was fabulous!

More tomorrow!

See ya!

Stitch-In is cancelled tonight!

Here's hoping Trish will check the blog! I've called everyone else, but I don't have Trish's number in my new phone. Yikes!!! So please don't drive to the shop, it will be locked up! A friend of mine is trying to pass a kidney stone, gonna help them out! So far my spring break has been quite boring, but I am excited cause I get to visit my baby sis in Marietta this Thursday! Woop woop! Working on my LHN pincushion/needlework book! Pictures will come later! Gotta run, at the cross stitch shop right now! See Ya! DaisyGirl

Gotta learn the new phone!

Got my new smart phone Friday night! I'm gonna have to go to the tutorial at the Verizon store to help me figure this sucker out. But its great! Love it! I can FB anytime I want! lol I decided on a Samsung Galaxy Continuum. I looked at the HTC Incredible, Droid Pro II, but my vision helped me make the best choice for my eyes! The screen image was really sharp on the Galaxy phone, something that my poor eyes need. I did look at the IPhone, just couldn't justify paying that much for a phone. The Thunderbolt was sweet too, but way too much for my pocket book. Thank you Johnny for buying me a new toy! :)

One thing though, Verizon was unable to transfer and of my phone numbers from my old phone! I fried that one! So I will need to get all my stitching buddy's phone numbers again! Sorry y'all!

I have been working on 2 projects, Belle Pepper and LHN's new needlebook with the pin cushion. Belle Pepper is on my needlework stand and I'm taking the smaller project with me to stitch-ins on Tuesdays.

I helped an old friend move yesterday, in the rain! But I knew they needed help so I volunteered myself and my son Jason to help! We had to haul stuff up to a second story apartment :( My body is stiff today! Plus it's stilling raining here and that makes my RA unhappy! As much as I should go to the gym today, I think I will rest my weary body.

I'm hoping that everyone has a great rest of the weekend!

Hugs,

ps: Pic is from my new phone! It takes great photos! Jacob took this one!

To see or not to see................

Hmmm, as I sit here at the computer with readers on top of my glasses, I pitched a tiny fit and dug out my contacts. I had hoped that having the contacts sitting right up on my eyeballs, I'd be able to see better! Dangnabit! It didn't work! I still had to put on readers to see up close. Sighing very loudly in Dacula! I will say that I got a LOT of compliments on my new look, so does vanity win out or do I go back to glasses? I guess I will try a new pair of contacts soon, maybe they make bi-focal contacts? who knows?

Both boys are gone for the weekend, so it's very quiet here at the house. I do have the cats to keep me company, John is watching(sleeping!) TV. lol I need to get ready for bed, but I might watch alittle more TV myself.

Has anyone purchased one of Just Another Button Company's new pin cushion kits? They are super sweet and cute. If you got one, where did you find it?

Well, that's all for the night!

Signing out,

The Blind One!

Where have I been?

Where does the time go? Who knows anymore! I can't believe it's already St. Patrick's Day! hope you didn't get pinched today! I didn't! lol

We had stitch-in on Tuesday night! all my regulars were there! I need to remember to take my camera next week so y'all can see what everyone is working on.

Here's a picture of Belle Pepper! Coming along pretty good! Haven't decided how to finish it though.

Stitchy Update and more from the vain one!

I'm working every evening on LHN's Belle Pepper, so cute, don't really know how I want to finish it. I may try a stand up cube, I know Vonna has a great tutorial on cubes. I finished the cardinal from Button Up Birdies! I'm working on my 3rd birdie right now!

Plus I have major exciting news! My baby brother and his girlfriend are getting married! They set a date and it's Dec. 10, 2011! I am thrilled! So y'all will most likely be tired of hearing me talk about the wedding! lol Since I know Kelly reads my blog, I can't show pictures of their wedding sampler that I am working on! boo-hoo! It's gonna be awesome!

Jacob has been under the weather since Saturday with a stomach bug. He attended Taste of Dacula and came back home sick as a dog! Poor guy!

Hoping everyone has a great week! Don't forget that tomorrow night is Stitch-In at The Stitch Store! Wahoo!

Hugs!

Sunday Ramblings!

I'm very tired today! :( I thought I was on the mend, I must have done too much yesterday. Grocery store and the gym did me in! My husband John told me I wasn't ready yet, guess I should have listened to him! heheheheh

I won't tell him that he was right!

I've worked on LHN "Belle Pepper", I'm loving it so far. I'm getting ready to start the middle section, I'll post pictures tomorrow when I've got more completed.

Our spring weather here lately has got me wanting to paint the inside of our house. I'm so wanting to go to IKEA and check out that store. I'm hoping that maybe I can make the trip soon. I just know I need to get organized, yet I want our home to look cozy and lived in. Plus I'm wanting new leather furniture. We have burgundy leather furniture now, I'm hoping to get saddle tan next time. I want matching leather recliner's, so that I can put my feet up at the end of the day. Ahhhh! The thought of it!

Well, it's getting late and I need to get ready for work tomorrow. I go for my next RA treatment on Tuesday, I'm hoping they will not cancel it since I've been sick with pneumonia. Cross your fingers friends!

Hugs,

DaisyGirl

Feeling better! Thank goodness!

I started on LHN's Belle Pepper, it's gonna be really cute and I love the colors. I did change the linen color on this one. The picture on the pattern looks darker, but in real life the linen was very light. The Straw Bonnet color would not have even showed up on the linen that the pattern called for, so I just went with a darker linen.

My Saturday will be filled with grocery shopping and cleaning up the house :( I hate chores! Since I was under the weather, do you think any of those things got done? Nope! We women are so under appreciated! hahaha We are expected to hang tough, suck it up, keep moving until we drop!

I worked even with pneumonia, we had a county reviewer in the other day, and I was coughing and the lady wanted to know why I was at school once she found out I had pneumonia? I just told her that my manager thought I'd be ok to work and so here I was. So we will see if anything comes of it. It'd be different if I had no sick time to take, but I have over 22 days of sick time! It's just that if I take off, then the manager has to come out of her office and work!

Well, I guess I've rambled enough for now, I've gotta go to the grocery store! Ugh! I hate wasting my time at the store!

Hugs to all,

DaisyGirl

Back to the Drs. and Pneumonia on the menu!

Jeez, can't get better, went back to the Dr's. and know I have 2 shots plus 4 new meds to hopefully knock this out! Truthfully I do feel somewhat better Sunday. I got the shots on Saturday afternoon, Dr. Andrews did say I'd feel better quickly with these shots. I just know that we have people out all week and I really can't be out, even though I should take the time off.

Yesterday was our luncheon at the shop and everyone had a great time stitching and hanging out enjoying the company of friends.

I got my newest LHN pattern Belle Pepper and I will be starting that one this afternoon. It is so cute!

I taught a bunch of Girl Scouts last Monday night how to cross stitch and they were fun to be around. Had 15 little girls who were a joy to teach. I will be going back on the 21st and the 28th to help the girls finish their projects.

Hoping everyone out there in blog land is well and has a great weekend!

Hugs,

Bronchitis Stinks!

I'm worn out! I've been sick since Friday night and I even went to the doctor :( Have meds, but still feeling puny. Haven't taken a day off from work since we have had others out. I even cancelled stitch-in tonight at The Stitch Store. Sorry friends, but I want to be better for our Saturday luncheon!

I've not even been to the gym :(

Hope I feel better tomorrow!

Hugs,
