Good Morning One and All,
It is a tad bit chillier this a.m. 32 decrees right now instead of the lower 50's. But the sun is out and it looks really pretty outside. Yesterday just looked so bleak...all day long.
I did venture to the office late morning and I had forgotten that the property management company always decorates the office for the holidays the Friday after Thanksgiving. So, when I entered the building, this is what I saw in the lobby of the building:
And then, when I walked into our office on the 2nd floor, this was what greeted me:
So pretty. In a way it seems a waste with most everyone working from home, but still it was nice to see. The parking lot was pretty full yesterday and I could hear a group of folks talking in one of the conference rooms, but I just did my thing and got out of there in half an hour! I know there are meetings scheduled for next week, so it will be nice for people coming in to see the trees.
Well, here we are at TNT and I'm happy to report that there has been progress on each of the three pieces I am currently stitching. First up, that crazy, long-legged bird. Nearing completion, but not quite there yet.
Ellen Harrison saw a few letters added. The bottom line (the one I'm working on) reads so far "Remember now thy Creator i" - again, Ellen's placement of letters means that words tend to run together.
Last up we have the "Praise Loudly Blame Softly" sampler. The second row of birds has been completed and now a row of Double Leviathan Stitches has appeared under that.
I really enjoy stitching designs by Eileen Bennett as she always incorporates different stitches into her pieces - they are never just cross stitch. It helps to keep my interest high!!
Today will be filled with bill paying and a light grocery shopping. We had no mail delivery last Friday and Saturday! Yesterday the mailman left a pile (rather large) in our box - holiday catalogues (of course), but also half a dozen bills. Yuck! And, since the sun is shining strongly, I'm hoping to bundle up for a walk after lunch. Enjoy your Tuesday!
