Stitching Update

Talk about your crazy weeks! So much happened both professionally and personally, it definitely affected my stitching. I picked up Night Wish, which I haven't touched since May of last year:

I should have gotten a lot farther, but I only managed to get here:
NightWish019
I'm going to go ahead and keep on working on her this week and then switch to Happy Haunts for the weekend and the rest of the month for A New Stitchy Start Blog. I need to at least feel like I've made a full week's worth of progress on Night Wish and I'm just not feeling it now and, considering everything, I'm not sure I can do much better this week either.

As far as work and personal, I'm in avoidance mode right now. Everything is just blowing up my brain. I guess I need to focus on the really important things:

Sorry to hear that you are in avoidance mode, although maybe stitching is a great way to "aovid" and take your mind off things. Good luck!

Sorry things are not going so well at the moment. Hope your stitching and furbabies will help you overcome them. Awesome progress on Night wish.
It is lovely progress none the less. And Bugsy looks like he has an old soul. The are both so cute!

Wow! those two are adorable :) I wish I lived closer to pop by and give them both a hug.
The purples in this piece are gorgeous.
Look at those little doggy faces! So cute!

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...
