Getting Out For A Break

 This morning, Patrick went to have coffee with a friend. He was gone a short time. So, while he was gone, I decided to get some of my shows on TV. I saw two "Vera" shows. Then when he came home, we watched another show. 

Pretty much today we were watching TV. Mom had called and asked if she could take us out to eat. We decided to go. Patrick is getting better about that. So, around 3 pm, we headed to moms and picked her up. We decided to go to Denny's because Patrick was hungry for eggs and there really isn't anything around her worth going to. Wish that would get a good restaurant in town. 

Came home and watched more TV. I decided on the way home to put the puzzle away. It was started when Patrick was in the hospital. I haven't touched it at all lately. So, I boxed it up and will take it to mom to give back to the couple it belongs to. We talked about what I have going, and I told Patrick I wanted to get this Santa done first. It's my priority right now. I have the beading I need to get back to and will but want this done first. 

I was able to get a lot done. I worked on the owl and some of the beard. It's coming along great at this point. I have even been thinking of the next cross stitch project I will do. Mom asked about the kit I bought with my applique. Told her I had it, but not there yet. I'm more into the cross stitching. 

I need to do another quilt top one of these days as well. I will work on it. I'm getting there. I need to cut backing and batting for the two tops downstairs. That will be next as well. 

Then I keep getting calls from Bryan wanting me to work on the family history more. I really do need to do that. BUT I want to get this done first! Then I will work on the other stuff as I go. I'm having too much fun with this piece. AND it's taking me away from gaming which is a good thing. 

There is nothing better than being Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!

Being Lazy - Not In The Mood - But Still Stitched
