I'm back!

Sometimes the stars align properly and all is right...even in my unlucky world. Last week was one of those times. I had an absolutely amazing Disney World trip, quite possibly tied for the best trip ever! We had perfect weather, perfect food, and perfect shopping! Although the crowds were high thanks to a cheerleading competition and there were little issues like resort problems, contact issues, and swollen feet, it was still quite manageable and the good far outweighed the bad!

I've got a lot of prep work to do for the April A to Z challenge and, of course, April will be booked solid, but hopefully I'll be able to wrangle my way through thousands of pictures (about 9000 this time) and have some new reviews up sometime in May. I also haven't started back stitching yet...I needed a weekend to re-coop. I did read a book, something I haven't done in a couple of years, so I must be pretty relaxed overall to focus on reading. Makes me kind of wish that I hadn't given away a lot of my unread books.

I'm going to focus on catching up on everyone else's blogs this week and hopefully get started back stitching. I hope everyone else had a great week as well!

Excellent news that this was one of the best trips ever! Exactly what you needed after the start of this year that doesn't seem to get any better. Hope you enjoyed reading. Which book?

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
