Received Round 3 LK


I received my cute LK February stamp from April. When she receives her round 3 LK, we will have a good laugh. She should have gotten it by now. I certainly hope it isn't lost. I did insure it so we will see.


This has been a long week at school but now it is Friday evening and I have to be back in Broken Arrow tomorrow by 7:30 a.m. It is our annual Circle The State With Song and I have 11 children that are participating in that event. For our school that is awesome. They will have a good day but will be tired pups by 3:00p.m. Then at 6:00p.m. I have a fund raiser at our school so it will be a long day and late evening. I will take stitching with me. I sit and listen to the children rehearse all day. Teachers must be there with their kids.


Have a great weekend and don't eat too much while you watch the Super Bowl.

Where Does The Time Go?


I can't believe it has been over 2 months since I made a post but things happen in our lives that keep us occupied, like family and work. We had a crisis in our family and I have truly not been able to do much of anything.


I did finish my round 3 for our LK Exchange. The weather saved me. We had 5 inches of snow and 3/4 inch of ice under that so my school was cancelled on Friday and I stitched up a storm. As soon as my partner gets her package I will post a picture.


Here is a picture of the snow out our backyard. Our 2 cockers enjoyed bounding through and dragging in snow on their fur.

LKE Was Received by Kirsi and I Receive Mine




I received an email from Kirsi letting me know that she had received her Round 2 LKE, so I will post a picture now. I enjoyed working it up.


In today's mail was my Round 2 LKE from Karen. It is so neat and I treasure it. It is done over 1 on even weave. She also made floss cards to go with it. I will use it. You can never have enough.

Fabulous Weekend

Saturday my good friend and I went to Tulsa to visit the stitching shops, eat, and is there anything else? The trees were pretty and the weather was perfect.

I also mailed my Round 2 for LK. My partner should get it about Thursday.

They say no rain for the next 7 days. October only had 11 days without rain. It has been a soggy month.

I just finished my LK Halloween Samplings for my daughter in law that just moved and is having to make some adjustments. She does cross stitch and I wasn't sure she wanted me to do some for her. She asked me the other day if I would make her some and I said sure. (That pleases a mother in law.)


I think I will make it into a pin keep or a little pillow. Finishing is always the hardest for me. I can do it just fine but it is getting started. My helper is on her fall foliage trip and I need her here. LOL


I wish all of you a great Monday and a blessed week. I am moving into my new room and it is rather nerve racking. What I need for one room is in the other room.

Lenna received her birthday exchange


Lenna received her birthday exchange so I will post a picture. I am new to these exchanges and I forgot to take a picture of the extras I sent her, but she posted them on her blog.

This has been a crazy week and tomorrow is Friday. I'm ready. With rain always peeking through the clouds the children have been wild. Then it would rain and they had to stay in during recess. Then the teachers went wild. I will be moving to my new room and I cannot wait. I have taught for 3 years in our parish hall with a closet for all of my musical instruments and all of my teaching supplies. I will not know what to do!!!!!

Enjoy your weekend. We are supposed to have rain.
