New Month, New School and no Finish


These are pictures of my kids on their "first day" of school!! My daughter started 6th grade last Wednesday, August 26th and my son started with a half day today and he's doing kindergarten this year...

This first picture is what I had done up until Friday, August 28th in preparation to go on my weekend of work/stitching.

It ended up being a strange weekend here. With "Hurricane Danny" threatening the northeast on Saturday the race I was supposed to work was canceled for safety reasons. Because of that, all of my "extra" stitching time disappeared while doing things around the house here instead of sitting in a hotel room all afternoon stitching.

I did do more stitching once I did get to the race site the evening before Sunday's race and then I've continued to stitch this morning before the kids got up and then as a reward while I was on campus today after doing about an hour and a half worth of studying I gave myself about 30 minutes worth of stitching time before my class started today.



This picture is shows what was done over the weekend and as my "reward" today. Unfortuately, I didn't get it completed as I had hoped but I guess the moniker stands true of slow and steady wins the race...I figure I'll continue to work on this slowly as a "reward" and that eventually it will be complete...

As usual thanks for looking...
