IHSW time and an update

First up, I have been a horrible blogger lately! But I do have a good excuse-I managed to clock 40 hrs OT in the past two weeks. To say I'm worn out is an understatement. I finally get my stitching mojo back and I don't have time to stitch anymore. It's driving me insane!

I'm gonna try to do better this week, but I do have a small stitch update:

Granted, it's not very much of one for a weeks worth of stitching, but in case I do have another crap week...it will be my last update before the International Hermit and Stitch Weekend this upcoming weekend:

So, for those who haven't done so yet...it's sign up time!

I'm also finishing up the 8th series of New Tricks, so another review is on the horizon! Kate, over at the The Suddenly Kate Show, and I were talking the other day, and it reminded me of a TV series I've been wanting to do a review of for quite some time. It's actually my favorite show of all time, and considering my almost exclusivity for British television, the fact that this particular show is my favorite, might just surprise you! But I will save it for another day.

Congrats on getting any stitching done during that week! Hope it slows down for you.

She still looks gorgeous.

I love the eyes and you're not even finished them... I bet they would be stunning once you completed them :)

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...
