Now onto my stitching update. This week was a rough stitching week cause my rotation was getting boring. I did stitch on 3 things. I stitched on Witchy Washy. Here is a picture of where I have gotten:

I also stitched on Oriental Courage. I did get a lot of black done still have quiet a bit to go here is the picture for that:

The week before I forgot to take a picture of my Chatelaine well here it is: All I have left on this is the half stitches in the coral and then only 3 more fish.

I got bored of stitching the Chatelaine and everything else so I started something new. I started HAED's Advice From a Caterpillar by Scott Gustafson. I had so screwed up when I started it the first time so I started over. It wasn't much but it's all good. So now I have been working on this since the 10th of March and have completed a lot. I am doing the UFO/SWIP SAL on the HAED board I have till Friday to work on it but I'm enjoying it so much I may keep going but we shall see. Here is where I started on this design for Friday: And this is where I am at right now so far: So I will keep going on this design.

As for the job front I am suppose to be in an orientation tomorrow but I did not receive any phone calls. So I talked to my daughter's father and he said just show up and see what they say as I cannot get a hold of the person who will be my manager. So that is what I will do. I will let you all know how it is going.

Happy Stitching

Mid Week Update

Well this week has been speeding by extremely fast. The stitching is going well so far and looks like I'm completely on track. As for the Job front it is coming along nicely actually. I have applied at almost 50 different jobs. I have an interview next week at a golf course. I also have an appointment with a temp agency on Friday. I am also going to be going to the school to see if I can get in. I'm at a cross road with school right now. I can either take a course dealing with Oil and Gas Administration *aka Receptionist* or I can go to Legal Assistant course. Not really sure which route as of yet to take as there will always be jobs in both. Decisions decisions lol. Anyways will be updating my stitching on Sunday.

ETA: Have a job interview tomorrow as well :)
Happy Wednesday

February in Review

As this month draws to a close so does the 2010 Olympic Games. Congrats to all Countries that participated in the Olympics. I am proud that you came to my Country and Proud that you have the guts to do what so many dream of doing. I am truely a Proud Canadian today as we have won 14 Gold Medals and we have set a new record. My favorite part of the Olympics is our first gold medal won at home and the Women and Men's hockey team again defeating the United States in Hockey. Both games were great and really close. I am so glad that we support both Nations in Hockey. This is what peace is all about. Thank you for coming to Canada and you all are most welcome to come again.

As for stitching I really didn't get a lot accomplished, as I was away for about a week in my home town. I did finish the Monopoly square seen here:

So this month I'll be working on Water Works.

Also worked on Chatelaine Mystery XII. I almost have part 7 done. I will have part 7 done this month and will also finish up part 2. Here is the picture:

This month I also worked on Elfland. I was 100 stitches shy of my 2000 stitches goal. So March's goal is to finish the page. Here is the picture:

I also worked on Oriental Courage. I didn't get the page completed on this one either but I'm close. So March's goal is to finish the page. Here is where I got to:

I also started to do an Olympic challenge with the 2muchxs yahoo group. I did not get it done as I was totally plagued with the frogs. I do plan on having it finished this month. Maybe during the Paraolympics. Who knows lol. Here is where I left off:

This month I also received my Valentine's Exchange. It showed up while I was out of town so it was nice to get it when I did get home. Here is what Pam gave me :

I also received my PIF and a Rak from Dawn. I received my first Biscornu and it's my favorite colour as well. Here is what I received:

A lot has gone on in my personal life as well. I put my relationship with Kris on hold as right now I need to focus on me and getting me on my own feet. I am also looking at going back to school as well so we shall see how that goes. I have applied at a lot of jobs even if it seems I'm not qualified for them but you never know unless you don't apply. I will be back out tomorrow to apply to more and also on Wednesday. Wish me Luck.

Happy Stitching.

Tuesday Update

Well I made it back safe and sound. The trip was uneventful going out but eventful going. I almost became a hood ornament on a trucker trailer. He was passing a sanding truck and didn't realize I guess or wasn't paying attention that I was there. But after that it became uneventful again.

As for stitching I only worked on Witchy Washy. Wow what a fustrating design to stitch lol. I am working on 36 ct 2 over 2 SMF Hypnotic. I had to redo the tree 5 times before it was right. I am so fustrated. I started that on the 12th and hope to finish by the 28th as that is when the olympics end. As for my other goals probably won't accomplish two of them but that's ok :) Here is the picture of Witchy Washy

Today I was working on My Chatelaine for UFO Tuesday. Will show you a picture of that on Sunday :) Happy Stitching

My Sunday Update on a Friday

I thought I'd post my update tonight on the eve of me leaving to go East for a week. I am looking forward to the trip but aprehensive at the same time. I know we will be fine and all will be well. I am taking some stitching with me. I am taking Oriental Courage and also Witchy Washy. I just started witchy washy tonight for the Olympic challenge I have to start it at the beginning of the olympics and finish it by the end of the Olympics. I felt life was too short not to start something lol.. I will be taking a lot of pictures on my way out and back so it will be cool. I am also taking my laptop so I can at least post to my blog. Unfortunately there will be no pictures as I cannot find my cord for my camera. Oh well.. Here is how far I have gotten on Mystery XII I will have part 7 done when I get back not much left now :) The other update I have for you is Oriental Courage. As this one is coming with me I may as well show you what I have done so far and will show you what I have done when I got back.
