Can't forget Spaz. She had put up alot with the new addition. She was used to being the baby and now she is the "Queen". We lost Selena. Both Spaz and I went through a morning period. Ater about 5 mos. she has slowly but surely gotten used to the ball of fur.

More pictures of my lovable Miles.

This is Miles. He is my new Fur Baby. I have had him for about 5months now. I got him from the Humane Society. I got him just under 4lbs. I thought for sure he would be bigger but he's my little man. Very affectionate and purrs all the time. He is much different than my other cats. He is a chewer and plays much more than the other ones. I think he has a bit of Siamese in him. His last visit to the vet and he was about 5.5lbs. I don't think he will get much bigger. He is really a joy to have around. If I don't get up when he wants me to he comes and licks my face. He brings toys to play with and uses his voice many a time to get what he wants. He truly is a great companion.

Latest WIP and School

Hello Everyone,
Here is my latest WIP. It is from JBW Designs. French Country Alphabet. It is done in Periwinkle from Weeks Dye Works. After stitching on my french project that has many color changes, I wanted to do something less changes. I got this at my big shopping day at Welcome Stitchery. That place has EVERYTHING you need to cross stitch. Good thing it is 90 miles from me. LOL I am going to work on my Easter heart and a xmas decoration for the next years exchange while I am waiting for more floss. This was one skein of the Weeks.
Now for school. I got in gear to start working on my nursing school. I have my LPN and I want to get my Bachelors Degree. I am working on an online course. I have to work at my pace. Did not think it would be hard to set my own schedule but omg it is!! I have set up a test date so that will help me to get'er done. The subject I am working on right now is American History II. Starts at the end of the Civil War and ends at present. I did not like history in High School but I am kinda getting into it now. I like working in the nursing home where I am at but I ultimately want to work in a hospital in pediatrics. Hospitals do not hire LPNs. Also the increase in pay would not be too bad either. Better get back to the books.

I am trying to post my WIP. Not having too much luck. LOL I hope I can figure this out. Yeaaah got it to work. I have been working on this one for about 6mos. I try and stitch a little bit every day. I love all the colors and especially the bunnies on the bottom. I might just be done by easter of '08. Will keep posting as I get more and more done.
Enjoy,
Brenda

Latest Finish

Hello out there. Yesterday was kind of a wash. Just wanted to sleep all day cause the snow and ice were making life a challenge. I want to have a more productive day today so I decided that I would post my lastest finish and what I am working on right now. This is Lizzie Kate. My first work on gingham. It was pretty easy to do. I got it on my stash trip to Welcome Stitchery and started and finished it that weekend. I love it. I got some fabric today to finish it into a pillow.

This is the nice package that I received from my Secret Santa the other day. The stitching group is Stitchers Circle. It had buttons, beads, floss (DMC and hand dyed), a recipe for cookies, pot holder, a hand towel that I can stitch something on, two pattern booklets, and a piece of gray/blue linen. Lots of ooohs and ahhhs when I saw everything.
Happy stitching.
