More trees

 Been so busy with Carole's family (docs are unable to form a diagnosis for Matt), plus shopping for her ham dinner Thursday, our ravioli dinner with my brother, and combined turkey dinner Saturday.  Outdoor chores of removing and storing any signs of summer, were done between appointments.

Leaves are still falling, took a chance on blowing after several days break, but my knee reminded me of my stupidity today in a vengeful act.  Good thing I happened to be using using a shopping cart at the time.  But I kept going!  Hobby Lobby shelves of small trees are almost bare.  I was able to purchase the sparse two foot that match my three foot used throughout the house ($5.50!).  Also got two of these different looking mini trees in a nice base.  

I finished the little I plan to stitch, but have been too tired following the busy to get started.

Hope your week is going good.

Wishing for you and your family a peaceful, restful and enjoyable Thanksgiving feast.
Love your little tree. Decorating for Christmas has been enjoyable and also somewhat of a chore for me this year.

My O my, have you been extending yourself. Hope all the Thanksgiving plans evolve smoothly and that everyone is blessed by the experience and your hard work. In all of that, please try to find some time for Marly to stitch and rest and stitch and enjoy.
That little tree is a charmer...love your taste...

Happy Thanksgiving Marly! Hope you get some quiet time for yourself. Your new little tree is darling!

3 Thanksgiving dinners!?!? They all better have you, and Mark, very high on the list of things to be thankful for. Sorry about the knee, I hope it doesn't interfere too badly with all you need to do. Let alone what you want to do.
Cute little tree!

Love your little tree in that pot.
You always forget what you can handle with your plans. You have to do a course of letting people do their duty instead of taking over what they have to do.
Please take me-time and stich this little beauty.
Happy Thanksgiving for you and Mark, Truus from Holland

Hello Marly and Family: Happy Thanksgiving, it sounds like Matt needs to see an internist, I hope they find out what is going on.
Love the little design, so sweet.

Happy Thanksgiving
Catherine

You've got a lot going on at a very busy time of year, Marly! You are just the best sister/aunt/wife--honestly. Where would they be without you? Love that little tree so much--we just got a new Hobby Lobby, will have to check for it! Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving and then, hopefully, some time to rest and stitch ♥
