K - Disney Cross Stitch Alphabet

Before I get to today's challenge, just a quick note...this is my 500th post! I can't believe that I've actually ranted, shared, exposed, whined, and just generally been social 500 times! For a reclusive Asper like me, that's a pretty big feat and it's way more social than I have ever been in my in my entire life. I'm also pretty surprised I haven't gotten bored with this whole blogging thing yet...I usually have a very short attention span. But, anyhoo, congratulations to me and let's get on with 500, shall we?

"K" is a bit of a departure from your typical Disney character. I am a child of the 70's and 80's and this character was at his strongest in those days (even though they weren't owned by the Disney company until later). I'm glad to see the Muppets making a comeback (to us Disney World alums, Muppet Vision 3D is still a big must see at Disney's Hollywood Studios). Granted, "K" isn't my favorite Muppet...that distinction is retained for Gonzo (who sadly couldn't make the list). And when I was choosing characters for CloudsFactory to make my custom chart, my first "K" choice was King Stephan from Sleeping Beauty. But scouring through her other charts to see what characters were available (I didn't want to make it too difficult and tried to pick characters she'd already created...although I failed on two), I ran across this one and knew he had to make the list.

Yep, you guessed it! My "K" is Kermit!

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...
