House projects

Too much going on lately to even think about sitting down and writing.  

Things are finally getting done around the house...new garage doors in, downstairs bathroom ripped apart, and new brick walkway and front steps almost complete.   The old bad thing is everything is a mess!  I have measureable amounts of dust all over the living room and my kitchen counter has become a paint a store and we've lost the vacuum. 

Old bathroom...

                                                Work in progress...tile is in

                                 


           Old front of house...forgot to take pic.  But here's the new walkway almost complete.

Sunday Stitching

Another lazy Sunday.....except I had to do laundry, clean out the Saturn, drive Saturn to the In-Laws so they can take ownership (and get it out of my driveway), and make a Home Depot run.  Plus make roasted chickpeas for the hubby.  

At least I got a little time to work on my Christmas fairy...she finally got some boots!

Not enough time

In a moment of weekness I ordered a few things by a new favorite designer, Little House Needleworks. Mrs. O'Leary's Dairy Farm, Louise and Henry, along with all 12 virtuous sheep are now waiting to be stitched.  Plus I also ordered the materials for a stitch along (6 fat me by lizzie Kate) with Knitonestitchtoo.  

That should keep me busy for a while..  .
