Saturday progress

I ended up going to the LNS in E. Rochester and bought red and pink things for a Valentines exchange. Scott was looking at all the nice scissors and saw a Dovo set of 3 in a beautiful leather case. So he asked how much it was. $275. He said that would make a nice gift for me. Hmmm wonder if he will ever buy it. Then I had to go grocery shopping. So we headed to Wegmans in Pittsford. We didn't make it inside. The parking was all the way into other parking lots and Scott hates crowds so we said forget it and headed back to Le Roy and Tops. Love Wegmans, not a fan of Tops.
Fixed pork chops for dinner with Scott's parents.
I stitched all day on The Pledge and so much closer to a finish.

Last night's movie was Lifetime movie channel's premier of Secrets of Eden with John Stamos. Such a great movie and John is so nice on the eyes!

Thanks for visiting and leaving comments. I appreciate you all so much!

Friday's stitching

Nothing exciting happening around here. I did sit and stitch while watching TV last night.

I will be stitching more on The 1892 Pledge again today. I am hoping to finish it this week. Then another UFO will be pulled out. At this time I do not know which one. They are all numbered. I have papers, with numbers on them, in a basket so I have Justin pull a number out and that will pick my next UFO.

I watched:
2 epsiodes Live With Kelly
2 episodes General Hospital
Supernatural


I also listened to Breaking The Rules by Barbara Taylor Bradford. I am halfway through that. I also read some more of The Target by Catherine Coulter.

Thanks for visiting and all the comments. Also on my sidebar is the new follow by email.

I Pledge

Hi everyone. I have been stitching, honest. Just didn't post last night. I did stitch some more on SamSarah Designs The 1892 Pledge. I am hoping to have it done this month.

I am moving right along on this piece.

I have been reading The Target by Catherine Coulter and it is hard to put down. I am also listening to Breaking The Rules by Barbara Taylor Bradford.

Tonight's TV shows:
The Vampire Diaries
Grey's Anatomy
Private Practice

I am tired so I don't have much to say tonight. Good night and thank you so much for the comments.

What is up with this weather?

I am really not complaining. But come on really? 54 on January 31? Is this how the winter is going to be or are we going to be in trouble in February and March?

I was just looking at Sunday night's post and had no idea that it came out like that with the pictures. I was having troubles with blogger and when I looked at the preview of my post the pics looked fine. I don't know what happened to them. There must be a gremlin in Blogger.

Last night and tonight I stitched on SamSarah Designs The 1892 Pledge. This was given at a retreat in March 2010, in Syracuse, NY. I am hoping to finish it in February.

Today I listened to the audiobook Breaking The Rules by Barbara Taylor Bradford. I also finished reading Peppermint Twisted by Sammi Carter. This is a cozy mystery.
I started reading The Target by Catherine Coulter and it is really good.

Tonight I watched:
Ringer

Thanks for all you comments and reading my blog.

Saturday IHSW & The Pledge

Yesterday started a morning of beading. My sister and mom came over and my sister wanted to learn how to make a bracelet. Her beads were gorgeous. Black and silver. Something you would pay $30 for and she made for $8. I repaired a bracelet that I had. No making anything for me lol. Mom just came to visit and watch :-)

We had to laugh at my dog. His name is Dreyx and he is 10 years old. Rottie/Sheppard mix. Well my dad says we have been lucky rescuing dogs. He just rescued a 4 year old female Shibu Inu (sp). I adopted Dreyx when he was 1 1/2. Anyways we were sitting at the table beading and brought up what my dad has said and he calls my dog a real gentleman. My sister laughed and said Dreyx is not a gentleman. Well he whipped his head around and glared at my sister and stuck his nose up in the air and then got closer to my mom for her sympathy LOL. We laughed and he glared at her for the rest of the day lol. My sister calls him a boob dog since that is what he likes about women LOL.

They left around 3 and then I got ready to go to Scott's parents house. I cooked sausages, mashed potatoes and corn. I took a pack out of meat out of their freezer and brought it home. I can have it thawed out next Saturday for them and buy some for us as well.

So since it is still IHSW I stitched some more on SamSarah Designs The 1892 Pledge.

I am loving this piece and will  bring it back out in a week. Sundays are Halloween stitching and the week of the 25th I always stitch something Christmas.

I watched a really good movie on Lifetime. Drew Peterson - Untouchable. Awesome performance by Rob Lowe. I didn't recognize him. He costarred for 2 days, with Live With Kelly and still is as hot as he was in the 80's. Doesn't look like he aged at all.

Thanks for all the comments and I do reply to those I can. You are all the best!

A Pledge & IHSW

This is the IHSW= International Hermit Stitching Weekend , and what a perfect weekend for that with the cold temps and snow.
My cowoker and I ordered lunch for our manager as her birthday was last week. We had pizza from Dominos which was very good. Scott picked me up from work. He had to go to Home Depot and then across the street is Michaels, where I had to go. So I bought a crimper tool. Then we went to Applebees.

I stitched on SamSarah Designs The 1892 Pledge. I also listened to some more of The Maze by Catherine Coulter. Then I watched Grimm.

My sister is supposed to come over tomorrow and possibly a friend for a day of jewelry making. Depends on the weather.

Well I am going to go and play some sims2 before I go to bed.

Thank you for all of the comments that I have been getting, I appreciate all of you.

HAED & The Pledge

We were in a Winter Advisory from 1pm-9pm. Not a lot of snow but the we had winds and with the snow it got nasty out for a short time.

I pulled out HAED Rapunzel so I could finish the 70 stitches for the row I was working on. I don't know when I will pull this out again.

Then I pulled out SamSarah Designs The 1892 Pledge. I am enjoying working on this.

 I started listening to The Maze by Catherine Coulter and it is pretty good.
Then I watched:
The Vampire Diaries
Grey's Anatomy
Private Practice
I DVRd The Secret Cirlce and will watch that this weekend.

I am still reading Even Cat Sitters Get The Blues by Blaize Clement.

Thanks for all the comments, I appreciate them :-)

Crazy January Challenge #11 & #12, and a UFO

I have been stitching, honestly. But I had to take a break from the CJC. I did stitch 2 more and then switched to a UFO over the weekend. I just did not want to stitch what I picked for day 13. So I put it back with what I chose for #14 and #15 and in its places I picked up something else. So starting tomorrow night you will find out what it is.
Anyways here is #11

Now onto my UFO:

This pattern was for a Cross Stitch retreat that I went to in Syracuse, NY. Sponsored by A Stitcher's Garden LNS. It was small of about 20 of us.

After the next 3 starts for the CJC then I will be focusing on this piece as well as the Christmas Angel and then LK Halloween Rules. Since all the CJC pieces are all Halloween they will be stitched on Sundays.

Thank you everyone for continuing to read and leave comments. I appreciate you all.
