WELL--FOLKS--

 Whether we want it to be that time of the year or not--

It's time to think and plan and enjoy--Christmas--

Opps-- I just realized we have less that 30 days to do it all!!!!

So here is what I got off the assembly line this week--

First 2 more Sun Bonnet Sues--using the new plaids that came in--

and I got a counted cross stitch finished this morning-

pretty sure this will be a little pillow--there is a 2nd design on this card pattern--so am now going to do that one too!!

And remember last week when I showed you Snowman # 2--

Well--this week I discovered I hadn't really finished him--forgot some highlights--

forgot the little dashes around his jacket and the snowflakes--

And here is this week's snowman--#4--

sorry about the extra threads on it--sometimes I just don't notice them until I upload the photos--I am finding that more and more fabric is fraying alot on me--why???

And here is the birth of a new project--

Bet you can guess what these guys will be????

And I am doing some knitting --(besides the baby sweaters!!)

These will be Christmas presents--doing these at night when I am too tired to hand stitch!!

This afternoon I did '2' big projects--one was unboxing a new Christmas tree--a prelit pencil one--to be sure the lights worked--they do-- and I finally hung up the February embroidery stitch along wall hangings I have done over the last 5 years--

first one I hung in the bathroom--

this is over the towel bar and is the largest one I did so far--

the other 4 are over my desk--

3 are over the top of the desk and one is on the side wall next to these on that wall--

I waited a long time to hang these up--did not think --even with my stool that I would be tall enough to do it--it was a 'stretch' but I did it---

I made a list on Monday of some bigger jobs I needed to do this past week--and each day I have tried to do at least '2' of them--so the list is getting shorter--but not done yet!!!

I did something on Friday I have never done--well--maybe once before, years ago--maybe--and that is go shopping on Black Friday in an actual store--my friend Cheryl texted me she had to go to Walmart and did I want to ride along and as she is leaving to go down south for a whole month--I went with her--totally forgetting it was Black Friday--but I have to say--the one we were in was good--lots of shoppers--but all were polite and having a good time--even the sales clerks were in good moods--which is not the case in this store--plus this store was well stocked--again not the usual case--we didn't stay long--then we went to a I Hop next door--I have never been in a I Hop before--had a good breakfast meal!!

My son and dil had our thanksgiving dinner  on a Wednesday night--and it was a lovely-- filling-- good food and nice family fun--we played Rack-O afterwards--I think I won!!

WELL I GUESS THIS IS IT FOR THANKSGIVING--AND AGAIN I AM SO THANKFUL FOR EACH OF YOU WHO READ AND /OR COMMENT ON THIS BLOG--

HUGS TO ALL --DI
