I've been so sick. This past weekend, Friday, I started to feel awful. Got off work early and went to the doctors, I have ear infection and strep throat. I was running a fever, felt weak all over, throat hurt something awful. I had to call off work Sat. and Sun. I did go to work on Monday but I probably shouldn't have. Keith also got sick. He was worse off than me, at least he played it off like he was. Didn't get out of bed for 2 days. So guess who had to look after Brandon. ME! Keith didn't even bother to get up to help me out. Men are so wimpy when they are sick. LOL
I did get a lot of stitching done over the weekend tho. I couldn't do much else but lay on the couch. So I stitched. Here is a picture of my WIP. It may not look like i've gotten much done, but that right border took me forever! So many color changes, I could have skipped ..or traveled..but I was worried my thread would show. So I had to stitch a few stitches, tie off, re thread needle, stitch a few..ect..I've been thinking about removing the wording and stitching Home is where the heart is..or something like that. I haven't decided tho.I bought some Even weave fabric from a 123 MB lady last week. I received it the other day. She even sent me some 32Ct. Even weave to try. I have only stitched on 28 count. I
can't wait to stitching something on it. I'd like to find a bright and colorful flower chart to stitch. Something like flower power but not as large. Here is a picture of what she sent me Isn't it pretty!
Other than my illness and my stitching I haven't been doing much. I did read the VC Andrews book that I wrote about in my last post. It was a grrrreat book. I am now on the Third book in that series. It's not as great as the first but I'm still reading along. I usually read a few chapters before bed. It's so relaxing to lay in bed with a book before falling asleep. I used to do cross word puzzles before going to sleep. But that took too much thought. LOL
Soon it will be my Birthday, (Sept 30th). I'll be 29 years old. I can't believe I'll be one year from 30. I don't feel like I should be turning 29. Man has the years flown by. Anyways, I'm off to sort the laundry and start cleaning up the kitchen. I cleaned out the fridge yesterday, washed it down, couldn't believe how dirty it was inside. How did it get so dirty? We put food in and take food out? Where did all the stains and dirt come from? I'm still amazed at it. Today I will tackle the stove. I think.LOL
Anyways, thanks for reading my blog and thanks for the comments. Happy stitching and Happy day!
