 Week 25 and my how time flies by. Finally some color other then brown, white, grey or red. There were a couple of nights I didn't get to work on the Chief. I rarely work on it the day I do the mopping around here as it just wears me out. No excuse though.
Rejoice is coming along nicely, I sure can't wait to finish it as well as the Chief. I only work on Rejoice one night a week, but I have a finish and will now work two nights on Rejoice.
That's right you heard me say I have a finish. YAY!!! I finished the Christmas Msal 1 from my yahoo group CSE. I was the first to post the finished photo as well. YAY!!!! I can't wait until Eva starts next week on the Christmas Msal 2. Oh wait I can't work on Rejoice twice a week as I forgot about the new msal coming up. Oh well it will on be for four fridays so that shouldn't take long.

 Week 24 and everything went well this week on the Chief. I didn't work on it last night (Thurs.) as I was just too tired from all the running around I did on Wed. & Thur. Hopefully this week will be better to get more work completed.
Rejoice Always was easy to work on this week as well, still a lot of work left to do, and should get a lot finished tomorrow night. It finally looks like a bird this week.

Some good news this week. I took my Mom over to her pulmonary Doctor Thursday to get the results of all the cat scans and pet scans she had done recently. The tests showed negative for cancer in her lungs. YAY!!! YIPPEE!!!! What a relief that is. We already knew she has severe emphysema and has to wear oxygen at nights the Dr. now wants her to wear oxygen during the day while she exerts herself walking etc... She don't need to wear it while she is sitting though. I am relieved that the spots on her lung are not cancerous, he thinks it is scar tissue from where she had TB as a child.Labels: cross stitch |

 Week 23 and getting excited again about stitching the Chief. No problems at all this week, thank goodness. The fabric is so large that I have to place the entire peice against the back of my chair to snap the photo. .
. . This is day 3 of Rejoice Always. I had originally planned on working on it every day before 4 pm, but that hasn't worked out so I am just stitching on it one day a week. I will work on Rejoice tonight and show you next week what I have done. . . I have started a new project, a Christmas Msal from one of the yahoo groups I am a member of. I will get the next part Friday the 19th, it only takes one evening to stitch up. . . . . I found this photo of our water tower on The Safe Drinking Water Trust website. It's under just for fun with numerous water towers from all over the states. Some of the towers have been put into a 2008 calendar, our little ole apple tower made it into the calender. It's just too cool isn't it. I have no idea who decided to paint this tower as it has been painted since I was kid. I do remember back in the late 80's they were going to tear down the apple tower, but there was such an outcry from the townsfolk that it remains here today. YAY!!! Labels: cross stitch |

Week 22 No problems this week other then me being a lazy stitcher. I should have been further along but I took a couple nights off from stitching. Sometimes I just need to rest the eyes, it probably would help if I got new glasses. I have had the script since May for them but just never had the money to get them.
.
Rejoice Always has 3 afternoon stitching on it. I noticed on the pattern that it has a lot of back stitching and I mean a lot. Just about everything is outlined. It will probably take me a week or longer for the back stitching. YIKES!!! I know how to pick them don't I... lol
