Floss Friday #132
Happy Friday! It’s a good day. My daughter who works with USGS is still employed. The next four years, no matter what happens, will be a roller coaster since Donald Trump does not like scientist especially those who work with the environment or climate. But this platform is not a political one and I certainly don’t want to make it so. Just please make sure you get all the facts before you speak.
On to more fun things like all my stitchy projects for this week. Let’s get started!

It feels like only yesterday that I was sharing what I have been up to this week on all my Cross Stitch projects. In reality, it has been a week! Whoa! What a busy week it has been. We are having unseasonably warm sunny weather here in Northern California. I am enjoying it while I can.
January Goals
I thought I would recap my monthly cross stitch start and finish goals here. I normally try to keep this number down, but January got out of control. 🐿️🤪

I am exhausted from working on the Cross Stitch WIP parade. It sure felt real good. I didn’t have any new FFO for Cross Stitch in 2024 so that will definitely be a goal for 2025.
Meanwhile, let’s take a look at what I worked on this week.

I am taking a moment to make this special post for all my cross stitch WIPs at December 31, 2024. While I would love to do this with my quilty projects, with over a 100 WIPs that is just not possible for this year anyway. Maybe next year.
January 2024 I started with 17 WIPs. I had the following starts:

Hope everyone had a great American Thanksgiving. I am still in food coma mode. How about you? It was great to spend some time with my sister and her family this year. So very nice. Food was fabulous as well as the company. Now I am ready to settle into the Christmas season with Christmas less than 4 weeks away. Ready. Set. GO!
Starts & Finishes
So exciting that this week I finished two and started three. I was relieved that I was able to wrap up these small projects.

Welcome to this weeks update on all the cross stitch projects I worked on this week. The atmospheric river is showing its teeth here in San Jose. We have been pretty lucky that we are just on the edge of the storm. Yesterday they were predicting 5 inches now it just 1 inch of rain. Thank you weather gods. On the other hand, weather like this makes me want to curl up with a good book.
LOL! Of course I have been doing that all week because I wasn’t feeling well. Since Monday I read two books already – Fourth Wing and Iron Flame. I couldn’t put them down. They are fantasy books. I like all kinds of genre but it has been a while since I literally couldn’t but the book down. I love reading and probably ready 4-5 books a week. Those are you average book sizes. While it is hard to tell how big these books are, I am guessing they are the 1000+ books. That could be an interesting blog. A weekly blog on what I am reading. No. No one would care about that. Plus I just read too much. Before these two, I finished up a 15 book series in about 2 weeks. That was … I am not sure what they call they genre. I think of it as military romance action books. Like I said, all genres.

Welcome back! Not as many projects this week but some nice progress towards my goals.
After having days of overcast and windy, it is nice out today with a high of 77F. Very nice fall weather. Perfect Fall day. Guess that is why I am finding so much joy stitching autumn and halloween this month.

The heat wave that started on Monday peaked on Wednesday but is still with us through the weeked. Welcome Autumn! I expect next week I will be complaining about being cold. 😝 Hopefully you all are enjoying your October. Can you believe it is here already!?
It has been a fairly productive and fun week. Yesterday I received happy mail from 123 Stitch so I spent the afternoon kitting up the next in two series I am working on: Santa’s House (Fabulous House Series) and Winter Baskets (Triple Play Pillows series). I finished so many projects in September that I had a pile of floss that had to inventoried and put away. It sure felt good to complete that task!
