PICTURES!!!

Hi everyone!  I know I'm not a very good blogger, too few updates and far in between.  I can only thank you for stopping by.  I believe I have mentioned I have really been trying to lose weight, that I have become obsessed to a point.  As of this morning I am down 79 pounds.  I can't believe it!  I am so happy I am going to still keep going.  I am doing this because I have not felt this good physically or emotionally in a very, very long time.  Just to say I am not doing a fad diet or anything.  I am watching what and how much I eat.  I also take two yoga classes a week and workout at the gym three days a week.  I started this journey when I realized if I did not do something I was not going to be around the way I wanted to be for my family.  I now can do lots of things I was not doing this time last year.  I also have been working on the rest of me too, not just physical but emotion too.  I realized that I needed that too.  I have not come as far as I would like in that department but I'm still working.

Let's move to the good stuff.  I have been a little lazy on my stitching by I have started CC October, finished LHN Reading and continually working on Prairie Moon's To thine is the trick and the treat.  Yes, there are pictures to follow.  I also have been working on a couple of ideas that I got from the evil Pinterest.  It isn't really evil, it just sucks time before you know it.  I have also been working on a quilt that I should have finished a long, long time ago.  That is the goal this week.  Finish the quilt an CC October, I need to really get these things off my plate.  I am feeling very fallish, is that a word? Anyway I am thinking about starting something to satisfy that new start need that seems to be growing.  I'm curious what other people are stitching.  Even if you don't follow please drop me a line and let me know what you are stitching.

Happy Stitching!

September already?

Who knew the summer would just fly by?  Well, I have been busy sort of. I have been stitching but surprisingly not as. Much as I thought I would.  I have finished a couple of things but nothing major.  I have spent alot of my time with my father in law.  He has his good days and his bad days.  I did take a yoga class. I have never done yoga before.  I found out I was not as bad as I thought I would be.  In fact I signed up for the next class.  I am still very focused on losing weight.  You could even say obsessed with it.  I have also been working out three times a week, I'm thinking of boosting it up to five times, I'm at a stall.  Anyway you want to know about the stitching.  I been working on Lizzie Kate's Halloween sampler, Country Cottage's monthly cottages, and a few other things.  Not a lot to update on.  Thanks for stopping by, see you next time.
