I finished my sister's Christmas present, Purr-fect Harmony! I hope she likes it. I sure do! I plan to stitch it for myself in the future. The cat with the flute is my favorite. I'm going to have it...snow. SNOW. Snow mixed with rain. Do not want. I'm not ready for it, and neither is Mom's garden. I'm starting to get a bit of a cold. The last thing I need is rotten weather to make me feel worse.

Was somewhat upbeat about this project over the weekend. Then the grump descended. One day I shall finish this. And then I will sell the bastard because I never want to see him again. I think the fact...Mohinder (which I didn't think was even possible) is not helping my level of affection for this. Also, the lighting of this photo has gone mad and I'm not entirely sure why. Sorry about that!

Hell, it's Monday. Let's just ease into it, shall we? FTW: Cold, home-crafted pizza for breakfast because while I never got over being a college student in some ways, I definitely did get over...can play a convincing (i.e. not stoopid) Federal Agent... leave me a comment if that's you. Foggy, chilly, damp and dark -- I must be on California's north coast in late October again this year!

So I decided to turn my blog into sort of a record for my hobbies. Currently I read, I'm a movie nut, I cross-stitch, I knit, and I'm about to undertake scrap-booking for the very first time (if my sister...once I got home as well. To be honest, haven't done much of anything in the four hours since I got home from work LOL Maybe I should go remedy that (do you think I could pass laundry off as a hobby?

Some pictures of homemade shopping bags, with Doctor Who and Flight of the Conchords related embellishments, await you after the cut.   Not the world's greatest pictures I'm afraid, but I haven't yet...shaped beasts.  Please let me know what you think (of both the bags themselves and how I can better my photos of them) as feedback will no doubt help me make better items i the future.

I love to do cross stitch when I was younger under the influence of my sisters. I remember them doing quite a number of works and I did a few too. But sadly, I didn't continue to keep up that interest...kick start my interest but it didn't last long. I digged this out tonight from the storeroom and let's hope that I can perservere to start from where I left. Let's see how far I can go from here.

Today is bright, and sunny, and I finally found enough motivation to boot up my black box and experience the joys of the internet. And, huh, what a way to start! After last week's horrible, I ordered... troll the interwebs, or find something else I love of a comparable price.) Answers on postcards, please. ETA: A Finnish site seemed to have it, but once shoehorned into English declared it out of stock.

I have one gift stitched & stuffed, lol. Only seven more to go. Once I get them all stitched, sent & everyone has received their gifts I will post the pics here & tell you who gets which one. It is so...a hundred mags to scan and lots of charts to scan. Then I have to figure out how to store all the files. Any suggestions? Originally published at Amarantine .

Just finished this cross stitch for my Mom :) It is proverbs 2:2 I think... anywhooooo I think my part of the audit is over, they seem to be annoying payroll now :)  So hopefully I can catch up on my LJ.  I will be at Agincourt this weekend, how many of yuns are gonna be there ? I get to babysit my wonderful niece all afternoon! I can't wait *yeah*

I originally had a list of "duh!" moments for this post, but most of them have escaped from their temporary holding cells in my poor brain, hence the replacement title. Ah well. It was stitching on the...is at rock bottom, and so maybe is willing to listen, and try, a bit. I think I'll go forage for breakfast, maybe get some healthy food in me to offset the chemical overdose from last night's fare. :
