WOW! Time has slipped away from me. I have NO clue where it has gone!!!

Winter has sure arrived here. Every day we have had snow or some form of sleet. Cold cold cold conditions! However, we didn't have ANY of this last year so I am thankful for it this year. I am thankful we have a home to keep us warm and we are all together.

I haven't been able to do much stitching, we are celebrating birthdays, shopping for CHRISTmas and just playing games and enjoying each other. However, I finally finished SMO Winter Quaker.

I love the purples! Perfect piece to start off the winter season!!!

I have about 5 or 6 pieces I have pulled and I am going to finish them before pulling out other pieces!! So I won't post much but try to stitch more!!

Hooray it is Friday!

Any big plans this weekend? I think besides getting ready for Thanksgiving we don't have many. The girls are going to a slumber party with other church members, so that should be a fun time for them!

My progress on Christ is My Salvation has been limited due to the pain in my hands. However I am seeing the rhematologist this morning!

So this is week 2:

Here is our menu:

Appetizers - Buffalo Chicken Dip & Pumpkin Pie Dip with fruit
Main - Creole Stuffed Turkery and stuffing
Sides - rolls, garlic roasted mashed potatoes, cranberry fluff and green bean casserole
Dessert - easy pumpkin pie, butter pecan pumpkin pie and sour cream peach pecan pie

Also for a drink we are going to have cranberry juice mixed with lemon/lime soda!

So I have been stitching a little bit on Christ is My Salvation.

It is coming along nicely!

Well all my chores are done, so I am going to stitch and rest today. I seem to have picked up whatever bug is going around and need to get better! Blessed day all!

So I started on Christ is My Salvation. HOWEVER, I ripped out the alphabet I started THREE times! First time I just started with brown, then I discovered that it was supposed to be one brown/one green thread. Then I did that but I really don't care for it. I like the brown by itself better. So then I ripped all that out and redid it with brown. Then I discovered I was off a bit -- rip that out, again. Stinkin frog anyway. So this is ALL I accomplished last night:

So what did you stitch last night? Love to see all what everyone is working on!

A bit of stitching here today, as well as reading The Countess by Rebecca Johns, author of Icebergs. The Countess is her second book and I think it is going to be a good read! I just finished Goodnight, Beautiful by Dorothy Koomson. Check out my reviews on Amazon or Goodreads!

Happy reading and/or stitching! Blessings on your weekend.

~ I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge - even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you - so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corthinthians 1:4-9 ~
