School is out

Yesterday was the last day of school, and the last day of work for me. I was so happy in a way. I will miss the kids, but I know I will see them next year as they head off to the first grade. It was really hard in a way. There were a couple that I kind of took under my wing, and will miss a lot. On the other hand I was happy, I needed the break, and I am glad it is here. I can get so much needed stitching done, which will be nice. The only real school thing I am doing is taking Ariel to cheerleading practice, and that is two nights a week. She is doing well with it.

Speaking of Ariel, I am not sure if I posted this on the blog on not, but Ariel had a scuffle at school with another girl. Well both girls were sent home. Ariel wasn't suspended, but the other girl was. The girl will not leave her alone. She has called her and texted her some very nasty texts. I have called this girl's cell phone and asked to speak to her father. The bad thing is that this girl's father is completely oblivous to what this girl is doing. He has no idea. I never got an answer from the father. She then in turn used Ariel's best friend's cell phone yesterday and texted Ariel. Well I called the cell phone to talk to Sonya the one who owns the cell phone, and this girl hung up on me. It seems that they think they can get under Ariel's skin which they are doing a pretty good job of. I told Ariel that I wanted the cell phone, and that if this girl did call I would take care of it. It is just stupid. I did tell Ariel to not worry about it, and that if it kept going on, then I would take some kind of action against the girl.

Stitching wise, I did get some stitching done last night, on Bed and Breakfast. Going to sit and do some stitching today, and just relax and chill. House cleaning can wait one more day. I need one day to just sit and stitch away, without having to rush somewhere later.

I do have some things planned for the summer, but not a whole bunch of things. If it keeps up with the heat the way it has, I won't be doing a whole heck of a lot.

Well off to get dressed, as I am still in my pjs, and straighten up the house, and then stitch.

New stitching pics

Good morning all. Here is the long awaited picture of Season's Greetings. I know that it isn't much, but it is coming along. I ran out of DMC 794, but I am getting some more. Thank goodness. I really need it. That is my son's hand in the bottom of the picture. He was being funny this morning.

I was sent a wonderful RAK from Chris Wilson. She sent me a Mystic that I have been trying to save my pennies for, and well I was so excited. My daughter Ariel was also, as this is the one that she wanted. It is called Egyptian Princess. I almost fell out in the floor. So you know what that means time to add it to rotation. Chris really made my day. Well off to work. Have a good day.

Sunday update

It is really hot here today. I am trying to stay cool, but that is hard with no AC. They need to come and turn it on.

Things here are going well. My oldest daughter Ariel made the cheerleading squad at her school, she is very excited. After practice the other night, we ended up taking her to the ER, she was dropped 5 times by her bases. She is the flyer, so they have to catch her, well.... they did, but they dropped her. The last time she was dropped she landed on top of someone's head, thank goodness she didn't break her ribs like we thought she had done. They are just bruised, but she is feeling a little better, and still a little sore, but she is hanging in there.

Stitching wise, I haven't had much time to stitch at all lately, but today I am going to sit and stitch and get some much needed stitching time in. I will probably do a movie marathon, who knows.

I will have a picture of Season's Greetings for everyone hopefully tonight.

Well off to get some stitching and laundry done.

New picture

Here is the updated picture that I have been promising of Bed and Breakfast. I am going to put this aside for the week, and start on Season's Greetings. I know I did that with Country Comforts, but well, that is the way I am lol.

Bed and Breakfast is really coming along. I am so pleased with the way it is turning out. Off to start some stitching, have a good night.

I think I will have a dairy farmer in the family

These are some of the pictures from the field trip yesterday. I definitely think he really loved the dairy farm. So maybe he is going to be a farmer. He had so much fun. He had so much fun petting the calf. I have to say he did pretty good. He played a bunch of games and won every one of them. It was just to cute.

I just wanted you all to see. Have a good day.

Stitching update and update on life

Here I am! LOL. I have just been so wiped. But things here are going well. Sorry I haven't posted I just wanted to relax and kind of vegetate for awhile. I needed it.

I haven't done much stitching, but I did last night. It wasn't enough to take a picture of it, but that is okay. I am going to make sure I get a picture taken this week. I am going to start rotation again. I am going to rotate between Bed and Breakfast and then another Mystic that is called Season's Greetings, but I am going to wait until tomorrow night to start on it. I have set a goal to finish the first three pages. I did pretty good with the last goal that I had like that for Country Comforts. I need to work on that one also. It has become a UFO. I don't know how that happened, but I think it did when I started working on Bed and Breakfast for my father. I just need to learn to rotate and keep to it. So I am going to set a UFO week up for myself and work on it and on Rose Garden. I want to get that finished also. I need some finishes here.

Ariel my oldest daughter tried out for cheerleading at her high school, and she made it. I was so happy for her, that she and I were both crying. The only problem is that it is so darn expensive. She needs $290.00 by May 28th. I thought I would pass out. I am going to try and get it for her. She is so psyched about it, that I want her to do well, and I don't want to let her down.

Miranda is doing well, she made the honor roll at her school, she was so excited. I told her it should feel good all the studying that she does.

Justin is going on a field trip to a farm today, we get to watch cows being milked. Not my favorite thing in the world, but he is excited, only because Mommy is going and his class is going at the same time.

I will have pictures of that for everyone later tonight. Now I am off to work and field trip. Have a good day all.

Stitching update May 4

It has been a while since I posted a picture, and I know I promised, sorry it has taken me so long to get one taken. But here it is. It is really looking nice. I have the first page completed and am working on the second page now. I am thrilled with its progress.

I am so enjoying stitching this. I really am thrilled with this.

Everything is going better here. I feel more relaxed and am catching up on my stitching.

I am going to go to the community college instead of the college that I was going to. I think it will be a little bit better than where I was going. We will see.

Well off to get some more stitching done on Bed abd Breakfast.
