I'm still in Florida, but I'm back at my brother's house. He has an extra house that he is either going to rent out or sell after the new year, but for a few days it's my vacation house! My mom has the two older boys and my MIL has Matthew. It's so strange to have no responsibilities! To not have to jump up every two seconds and do something! :)
When my dad and step-mom visited in November, I had mentioned that I would like a new stitching light. I never thought that they would get me one, but they did! I felt bad since I had gotten a magnifying light after they visited for myself as an early Christmas present. I love the one they got me though and I don't think I'll return it because it not the same as the one I have. It's an overhead light and has wheels, which would make it very easy to take from room to room.
I also ended up starting a little project. Shepherd's Bush "Queen Sheep." I should definitely be able to get it finished up today with the no responsibility thing I got going on here! :)
Hi Nicole,
ReplyDeleteThat's looking so cute! I'm sure you'll have it finished in no time since you're so fast. Jane is also doing a SB and I just started one too.
Nicole, you enjoy your "me" time, you deserve it! It's always nice to have a littel alone time.
ReplyDeleteGreat new lamp Nicole - I have a similar one but it's an Ottlite but it does not have a magnifier attachment.
ReplyDeleteLove the new start.
Happy New Year to you,
Enjoy your time while you have no responsabilities; I know the feeling, I have 2 boys of 8 and 5 years old and I also have to jump every 2 seconds.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a nice project you have started.
You can never have too many stitching lights! Enjoy Queen Sheep...it's in my stash. Is hubby there with you? If so, enjoy your time alone! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat lamp and great progress on your new piece! I know you're enjoying your quiet time:)

ReplyDeleteQueen Sheep already looks very great. Looking forward to seeing the finihsed piece. And enjoy your no-responsibility-time!
ReplyDeleteI just adore that Queen Sheep. It's going in my next stash buy this week! I'm sure you'll have it finished in no time with none of your boys to worry about. Enjoy your alone time. :)
ReplyDeleteThat lamp is fantastic! What a great hint dropper you are. lol
Great start on the project. And the lamp looks great also. How do you get such good clear pics of your needlework? I am always impressed by your posts.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you are having some peace after all of the hussle and bustle of Christmas with the boys. Wonderul stitching WIPs you have on the go.
ReplyDeleteOoooh have fun stitching! Can't wait to see Queen finished!

ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Land of the Free finish Nicole - it's beautiful. Hope you continue to enjoy your break. I have a big Daylite magnifying light - I absolutely love it and couldn't live without it.
