Floss Friday #46

Welcome to another Friday. For June the weather is a bit cool here in San Jose, California but I will take it. Typically we get a heat wave sometime close to the Fourth of July. This week my AC unit stopped working and with the contractors at my house still working on the shower, I haven’t called a repair HVAC guy. If it is not one thing, it is another when you own a home. LOL!

It has been a pretty productive week. I have spent some time organizing all of my kitted projects that still need to be started. It turns out I have a lot of those. LOL! I finally made a list just so I know. Over the past three years I have been a part of quite a few stitch clubs which came completely kitted. It feels good to KNOW what those are.

Just a quick update on what I have been working on this week. I was able to finish all my planned starts for May and even got one planned finish done. Let’s take a look.

How quickly the week has gone by. I feel like I ended April with a bang. I did get my 24 hours of cross stitching in and organized my upcoming month of May. It so nice to be home for more than a couple of days!

Happy St Patrick’s Day! Hope this finds you with plenty of green beer and irish stew.

Just recovering from feeling not quite sick, but not quite myself. Just Blah! Today was my first day feeling even semi-normal. It must have been the chicken noodle soup and herbal tea that did. Well… Maybe the extra sleep too.

Floss Friday #35

Hello Everyone! Our trip to Arizona was very good. Shaun and his hockey team did well. We went there to play against some good teams in preparation for upcoming California State Championship. The weather was pretty much the same as California bouncing around from freezing to pleasant every day we were there. They got to play a lot of different teams from Canada, Virginia, and Arizona. Very good competition!

Welcome to another Friday update on all things cross stitch in my life. Last time I also threw in some vacation photos. I hope you all enjoyed them. Retirement for me was not a planned event so the transition has been a tough one for this past three years. Although, I was not 100% retired until last October. I am not sure if Covid helped or hindered my transition but it surely screwed with my health. On the other hand, it was when I stepped back in the world of cross stitch after 35 years. Today’s world is very different from the cross stitch I knew in college.

Hello Fellow Stitchers!

Can you believe it is Friday already?! The week went so fast. So let’s jump right into what I worked on this week.

Floss Friday #8

It’s been a few busy weeks since we last posted. If you follow my Tuesday blog, then you know that I have been running around and have had visitors. With cross stitch, that means my routine is broken up.

I don’t have a few new starts and new finishes. I have been working on my monthly goals and have made some nice progress on them. Let me share that with you.

Floss Friday #5

If you didn’t see my recent post, I had website issues and vacation that kind of put a kink in all my plans. So this will be a catchup post.

I had a mother/daughter weekend in Seattle first weekend this month. We had a spa day and watch NCAA gymnastic at the University of Washington. It is always fun to watch people you know!

The next weekend had us flying off to Kauai, Hawaii with my grandson and his auntie (my daughter) for fun in the sun. I have never been there in April so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Of course since it is spring, it did rain but not too bad. We had lots of relaxation and fun with plenty of good food. Since we were having so much fun, I only worked on one project that week.
