Am I going to jail

 if I snatch an IG photo to share with you?   Probably.  But if people can go into stores and steal whatever they want without consequence, I should be able to steal a photo with credit to owner.  Ya think?  Stonestreet Stitchworks posted this of Mary Taylor Stackney 1828 by Lila’s Studio.  Another one of those Holy Crap look at this moments that make you add a project to the growing list of Holy Crap I will never stitch all these.  Not only did I not pay attention to this repro before, the appeal wasn't great to this simple marking sampler lady.  What a difference it makes once again to see thread on linen compared to a chart photo. 


I continued on without changes to the green in my current work, it's fine for now.  Honestly having problems with concentrating, attention, and symbols so I may just use whatever floss color happens to slide onto the floor.





And so it begins.  Tomorrow morning on the day I am finally getting in to my doctor.  Mark will need to stay here, they are crossing all utility lines, so I hope it won't be sunny since I will have to drive myself.

The right side is coming from mom's addition (former garage), circle is the tank which will be destroyed, and the line beneath the deck comes from the house extending to meet the other.  Petey is in the middle right now but will bolt tomorrow I'm sure.


We rode out to see Carole today with more stuff that she wants and doesn't need.  I ordered three bed jackets to cover those nasty hospital gowns, along with a lightweight pink comforter and blanket, all coming Tuesday.  Never ordered so much in my life and should have kept track for returns and credits.  Her Stitchin' by the Bay bag is still terribly wrinkled, even after stretching, blocking, steaming, and cussing. 

I hope your week starts swell and doesn't finish with too many bangs.  Except for sparklers, I am not one to enjoy neighborhood fireworks.  And neither are the animals, tame or wild.  We saw a dead mama doe on the highway to the nursing home, breaks your heart knowing babies are desperately needing her and won't survive.

Be safe, be well, be bitchy when needed.

Take care when you have to drive to your doctor. Will pray for dull weather and that they listen to you and have a solution for your problems.
Cann't stand that there is nothing for you to solve the dryness of your mouth and eyes.
Big hug, Truus from Holland

Good luck with the drive AND the doctor - hoping you get some quick and continuous relief - it is long time coming.
Hope all goes well with the work at your home - that always stresses me.
Hugs and happy wishes for good news

Hoping for a cloudy day for your drive to your doctor. I hope he/she will have something to relieve your eye situation.
So nice you can go to see Carole. Sad about the deer and babies.
Prayers for a good week for all of us. Going to be HOT.
Hate to think about your yard being torn up.
Take care !
Charlotte in Va.

It's interesting that the tank is that close to the house, then again the deck could be larger than it looks? Bummer that it all gets ripped up. I hope it's cloudy for your drive to the doctor today and no bad news from it. (((hugs)))

Fingers crossed for a cloudy day. I, too, find it difficult to drive on a sunny day and I haven't your eye issues. It either blinds me or lulls me to sleep. (Go figure...I can't sleep any other time.) Then again, I can't drive in the rain either...or at night. Just no pleasing this cranky soul of mine I guess. I hope the "mess" at home goes smoothly. We had to redo the septic system and put a lift system at the lake so I am sure it is a real mess there too. I just hope the hoopla didn't disturb the eagles. In any event, perhaps you can count it as a blessing that you weren't there....It would make me very anxious. Hoping for the best with everything. ~Robin~ (PS...Nah...you won't go to jail....copyright infringement is a civil matter, not criminal.) ;-)
