Blogging from A to Z April Challenge

It's that time again! I almost forgot to sign up this morning, but I eventually remembered this afternoon. I'm not sure my theme for this year yet, which is why I didn't code my link appy (I'm #199), but I have some ideas. For those that don't know, the A to Z Challenge encompasses the entire month of April. You can sign up HERE.

Depending on your theme, you post every day (minus Sundays) and cover each letter of the alphabet. This will be my 4th year (see previous year's posts HERE) and although my themes typically encompass something Disney, I have also done British Television shows for Americans (and a side Disney post as well...yeah, two challenges in one year).

I'm still on the fence as to whether this year will be along the same lines as last year and if it will be Disney-themed at all (there is only so much one can post about Disney, believe it or not). I can tell you I've contacted CloudsFactory to see if they could do me another custom cross stitch chart, but I think I made them mad last year by changing aspects of the chart they made for me, and, as of yet, they haven't responded to me about this year. That's OK, I've already got another one waiting in the wings (although it's not Disney-themed...maybe another double challenge is in order). If anyone has any ideas, be it Disney or cross stitch or other, just let me know...I'm quasi-open to suggestions (as much as a controlling Asper can be, anyway!).

Would you want to do an A to Z of HAED charts? I've enjoyed reading your thorough descriptions in past years. :)

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...
