Simply Saturday

It has been a quiet day for me. I mainly did just what I wanted to do. I did a little cleaning...took advantage of having an upstairs vacuum...got it out to vacuum up threads that I had gotten on the floor yesterday while I was taking the waistband stitches out of my pants. I aimed for the wastebasket when I was removing them, but I didn't have the best aim! Since I did that quick vacuuming in the sewing room, I decided to vacuum all the places that I could reach without unplugging the vacuum...so that meant a lick and a promise to the upstairs hall and into all the bedrooms as far as the cord would reach. While I was upstairs, I did the next step on my little patriotic piece. After I did that, the piece had to sit until it was totally dry. So that is where it stands at the moment...still on the ironing board, ready for the next step. After I put the vacuum away, I headed back downstairs and have spent a good part of the rest of the day with my cross stitch. I put away all the skeins of thread from my last two Christmas ornaments. Then I made up my mind as to which ornament to stitch next which I then pulled the threads for. I made a working copy of the cross stitch chart and got underway with a new start for the next Christmas ornament. I have read a little more on my book and studied my Sunday School lesson for tomorrow. To be continued. It has been a drizzly afternoon...never a hard rain...but drippy! Also it has been quite cool for a Memorial Day weekend. I have actually been a bit chilly. I went back to layering...a 3/4 length sleeve knit top with a denim shirt over it...so didn't have to get into my cold weather closet...but did think about it! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
