A week full of photos

Well, I wasn't very good at doing posts but I did good at taking photos. I didn't stitch over the weekend do to the fact that I was helping my mom and sister with a craft show. I worked on my crochet project since I don't need good light for that.

Day 3 of A Long Winter's Nap

Well here is day 3 of my posts on A Long Winter's Nap. I only stitched 152 stitches yesterday I was hoping for better but my kittens decided that I made a good bed. Daniel is ok with sleeping on my lap but Teal'c insists that he has to lay in my arms to sleep, if I try and put him on my lap he just crawls back into my arms.

A Long Winter's Nap

I'm actually impressed that I remembered to take a picture this morning of my WIP. I'm starting to see some of the Christmas tree there at the bottom. 

Here is what it will look like once I get it all completed. It's a very blurry pic you can see the original one here.

Stitching Update

Here is page 3 of A Long Winter's Nap by Dona Gelsinger. I have more done on it now and I'll take a picture of it tomorrow. I'm going to try and take pics every morning and post them, at least that's my goal.

Page 2 finished

I finally finished page 2 of my HAED A Long Winter's Nap by Dona Gelsinger. I don't know why this page took so long the only excuse I have is that I got 2 new kittens and they insist on sleeping on me, one on my lap and the other one in my arms which means no stitching. I can stitch if I only have one on my lap which is usually Daniel. 

He is also the one who is the most hyper. Teal'c is the calmer of the two and is also the one who insists on laying in my arms instead of on my lap.

And here is a pic of them both sleeping on me.

                                                                                                                

I'm a bad blogger

I can't believe I haven't blogged since March but a lot has happened. My husband and I moved across the state to be closer to my family. We decided that I needed a change after dealing with cancer. Since it is cheaper to live here in the small little town we live in I don't have to work so you would think that I would be able to blog more but I've been helping my sister with her business so it's like I'm working full time still.

We had an addition to the family, my brother in law and sister in law have a new baby girl named Sophie Danay. She is almost 2 months old now and the cutest little thing but I think I'm bias.

I have done some cross stitching. I finished the birth sampler for Sophie and I also finished my first HAED it's called QS Believe by Galbreth it took me over 4 years to complete.

I'm currently working on another HAED called A Long Winter's Nap by Gelsinger.

First post of the year

Well, I'm done with all of my radiation and I'm back to work. I got the word in January that I'm cancer free. My stitching has slowed way down. 

I'm going to be an aunt again sometime this summer so I've been busy stitching up a birth sampler but can't totally finish it until the baby gets here since the parents don't want to know what it is until it comes.

 This is what it looked like at the end of January.

Here is what it looks like now.
