Sean and I got up early to rake the leaves…finally. Almost all the leaves have fallen from our trees. The leaves are piled at the curb ready for the city to pick up. It feels good to have the yard cleaned up.
After a shower, I headed down to the LNS. Though it wasn’t on my goals for the month, I decided to take The Promise and get some stitches in on it. It is almost finished and I think I am going to try to get if finished tonight. At least the stitching, maybe on Monday get the beading done. Then I will be able to mark it off my list.
I took fabric for a couple of projects with me to have serged. I am now ready to stitch them both. One is on my list of goals for the year…La D Da’s Bless This House…and one of them is not…Blackbird Designs’ Moonlit Garden. I stopped on my way to the LNS at AC Moore to use a coupon that was expiring today and got the new Messenger Bag from DMC (for Stitchbow). They only had one, but I am hoping to get my hands on another next time I go. I had seen it a couple of times in a catalog but in an off white with burgundy trim, I like the navy better. On my way home I stopped at JoAnns to pick up the 2007 Cross Stitch Pattern-a-Day Calendar. There are a couple of patterns that I thought it would be worth getting one more time to see if it has gotten better this year. I also picked up a couple of fabric choices to finish my next scissor case.
Shame on me, I forgot to write about the lovely roses Sean brought home yesterday. Most of the time he works about 70 hours a week for which I am grateful as it permits me to be a SAHM. Even on days he manages to get home early, he works several hours here at home. Anyway, he surprised me yesterday with roses to say thank you for my being supportive to him.
Well, off to finished stitching The Promise.
