I started this blog in 2009 to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 16 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. 6/16/24 Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

Another Monday
Another day...another Monday...they just keep rolling by! I can't believe that we are into the second week of June. I decided that the first thing that I would do today was complete the Christmas ornament that I was almost finished with last night before I fell asleep. I tiredd to finish it last night, but just couldn't keep my eyes open long enough. When I completed this orrament, I have completeed the last ornament that I need to stitch that I will send out of town. It is very good to have those done. I still have to make them into ornaments which takes some time to do, but no where near as much time as it takes to stitch all those little Xs! Joy came over this afternoon and cut my hair...so it was a very good day...hair cut days are always very good days! This evening I headed off to church for Monday Night Furnace Room Prayer Meeting. I am home and plan to watch a little TV and get things ready for my next ornaments. When I was looking through cross stitch magazines a while back, I put aside several magazines that ornaments that I wanted to stitch. One of the magazines has multiple ornaments that I want to stitch...am going to start on one of those. I started pulling thread out a little before I went to prayer meeting. I will check and see that I have found them all and put them in a basket. I still have to decide on the linen fabric I want to stitch them on. Onward toward Christmas for my stitching...only a little over six months till Christmas so it is time to get going on them in earnest! I will set aside a day to finish them into ornaments on down the road a bit. I still have a little patriotic pillow that I need to finish. I did think about getting it made today...I did move the stitched flag and some fabric to use in the finish...just never actually got out the things that I need to get underway with it...but it is closer to the sewing machine! I put away a few things today that didn't have a home...trying to once again clear off my sewing cutting table (the place that all homeless objects seem to land). We had another rainy period this afternoon. We have certainly been in a rain pattern lately! Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious.
