Windy Rainy May WIPocalypse




Greetings fellow WIP stitchers!  I'm afraid to say I haven't accomplished much this last month when it comes to stitching.  My health issues keep annoying me (read as... so fatigued I can't get out of bed for days).   Anyway I hunted around for something small from my WIP pile to work on and pulled out my "Bikers Vest Patch".  It's been a choke! 1year 5months long time since it's seen the light of day.  I managed some more green and got as far as the gray in the tapestry needle this time around.  Speaking of "around" I really must get a rotational schedule printed out and stick to it.

And now for our favorite part of the show --- this month's topic question.

May 21 – Topic:  What were you stitching this time last year and have you finished it? (via Jo)
 
The short answer is: I haven't a clue and probably not.
 
So I went to my trusty blog archive list and checked the date one year ago.  And the answer is...... Mother Skunk and Babies, and no it's still a WIP.

 
I will be scheduling this to auto post at 6am Saturday as I will be gutting this computer for its 3 year cleaning Thursday night.  If everything goes as planned I should be up and running by Saturday evening.

That's it for this blog blurb.

A Very Short Book Review

The Truth About Leo (Noble, #4)The Truth About Leo by Katie MacAlister
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

If you need a book to help you fall asleep this book will do it. That's about all it has going for it.

Rainy May TUSAL



What you see in the beaker is from several weeks ago.  I haven't stitched anymore on Pegasus and Butterflies since my Wipocalypse post last month.  Let's just say my chronic fatigue and other health issues have gotten worse. 

On a brighter note HAED started their 20% off Mother's Day Sale today.  I put in my order for max color floss kit for "A Stitch in Time" by Aimee Stewart
 along with a mouse pad of the same image and a package of John James petite size 28 needles.  I was rather disappointed in the percentage off; usually it's at least 30%.  I think what really bummed me out was that any kind of savings was eaten up in the kitting fee they charged ($18.00us).  From now on I'm going to be using Michaels store coupons for floss. As for my order, I have no idea when my stuff will get here, I'm still waiting on the "The Addicts Box - Evenweave" package I bought in the middle of last month.

Thanks for stopping by.....
