CdCx and back to school...

I thought I'd do a quick update here before I got my nose back into the books on this Labor Day... The kids are busy in the basement looking for the tv remote that has mysteriously disappeared again, Ed is running the New Haven Road Race with his Uncle Bill (hope you guys set new PR's!!) and I've got time to do studying, stitching and whatever else before we all head to Grandma & Grandpa's for little Eddie's birthday dinner. I can't believe my BABY turned six this past Friday. We did his height measurement against the basement door jam and I'm amazed at how much he's grown in the last year. In this past year, he grew 3 1/2 inches which makes him 2 1/2 inches taller than his sister was at her 6th birthday and 1/2 inch taller than she was on her SEVENTH birthday...maybe I'll get UCONN basketball tickets out of one of them after all!!! LOL...

As far as my stitching goes, it is going much slower now that I've gone back to school but it is still making some headway...

This first picture was taken 9/1 and I totally forgot about having taken it. I just downloaded pictures from the camera and compared to what I've posted on this blog last and realized this one hadn't been posted yet.



This next picture I took yesterday (Saturday-9/6) in the morning (about 7:00am after I'd worked on it for about an hour and a half).



I have been having lots of sinus issues so I took yesterday as a "day for me". We went to the local Farmer's Market and got lots of fresh fruits and veggies. When we came home the kids and hubby did their own thing and I sat back and did some stitching. Head was throbbing too much to try and think in the school books.

This next (and last picture for today) is what I accomplished yesterday and early this morning (and yes, I was too lazy to take it out of the q-snaps before taking the photo)




As you can see, I'm on my final page of this design...and getting close to having only 1/2 a page to go on it...maybe next week I'll be able to publish about a finish, although I doubt that seeing as I've got my first labratory quiz coming up next Monday and an exam in two weeks that I don't feel prepared at all for...

As usual, thanks for looking...your warm and kind comments are great inspiration for me...
